The55project is thrilled to invite you to the exhibition “What I really want to tell you...” presented at Fundación Pablo Atchugarry.

May 10 - August 31st

Tuesday to Friday: 9-5pm

Saturdays: 11-5pm

Curated by Jennifer Inacio with Flávia Macuco Pecego this exhibition explores the cultural, social and political histories of Brazil. The participating artists question these issues and externalize their examinations through art that impact, inspire and engage, becoming their own manifestos of exploration, interrogation, and change. While responding to our contemporary moment, the exhibition highlights ways in which art stimulates and inform new ideas in times of divergent realities.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

The exhibition features 14 Brazilian artists:⠀⠀⠀⠀

Almandrade • Jonathas de Andrade • Liene Bosquê • Paulo Bruscky • Anna Bella Geiger • Rubens Gerchman • Ivan Grilo • Randolpho Lamonier • Vanderlei Lopes • Gabriela Mutti • Paulo Nazareth • Regina Parra • Rosana Paulino • Mano Penalva

Piero Atchugarry Gallery, "Room for Failure" Miami, 2019

Room for Failure is a group exhibition about the thought process and [...]

Room for Failure is a group exhibition about the thought process and connection that exists between the mental space of the creator and the end result (the artwork)—the subjective versus the objective. It is often associated with the simple action of defeat, collapse, and non-success. Although “failure” has a negative connotation and it is read as a condition of not meeting a desirable objective, it often translates as a human, poetic, and magical moment that leads to triumph. The sixteen artists in this exhibition tend to function outside the norm of artmaking, where concepts charged with political, social, and personal histories collide with the use of unusual materials. The performative and the presence of the body bridge the soul to a particular moment in time.

ektor garcía’s mis manos crean lo que soy was produced in Guadalajara for the show Oficio y Materia at the Museo de Arte de Zapopan (MAZ). The piece is presented as an installation with multiple elements, such as ceramics and fabric, which evoke a chaotic universe that is in fact a reflection of the artist’s mind. It serves as a psychological self-portrait of time lived yet failing to be defined.

André Komatsu will exhibit three works that have been produced and chosen in conversation with the theme of the exhibition and carefully selected for the gallery space. These works serve as a metaphor for failed political systems in Latin America, a prevalent and seemingly recurrent condition since the postcolonial period. A bent iron bar supported on the wall by small nails confronts and engages the viewer with fragility and tension, akin to the precarity of the diverse systems throughout the region. In another work, orchestrated with cement bags deliberately and symmetrically ordered on the floor, the artist exposes and displays their contents through geometric incisions.

The Israeli artist Nahum Tevet‘s works from the 1970s to the present explore the disintegration and deconstruction of space and systems, using minimalism as a point of departure. For Room for Failure, Nahum will contribute a recent wall sculpture that is structurally complex and, while seemingly confusing, the very composition fails to “read.“

These three artists are exemplary of some strategies and interpretations of "failure" among the many other participating artists, including: Carmen Argote, William Cordova, Eugenio Espinoza, Cristian Franco, Dorian Gaudin, David Ireland, Pooneh Maghazehe, Guadalupe Maravilla, Michail Michailov, Irini Miga, Gabriel Rico, Martha Tuttle, and Sergio Vega.Show More

About

The Piero Atchugarry Gallery presents Good Espinoza began his career by subverting the modernist grid, and is celebrating his work in reacting to the dominant movements of geometric abstraction and kinetic art in Venezuela in the 1960's and 1970's. For the past 50 years, Espinoza has continued his courageous and in-depth investigations of the grid. Good Blue Day presents a dynamic directory of new work using metal, color and an increased sense of play for the first time. In 2014 the Peréz Art Museum Miami (PAMM) hosted Espinoza's only exhibition “Unruly Supports. ”In addition to an essay by the curator of the exhibition catalog will feature a new interview with the artist by PAMM Executive Director Franklin Sirmans.Good Blue Day's will debut with a soft opening on December 1st and an Art Basel Miami Beach-week opening.

Curated by Claire Breukel, Good Blue Day offers a selection of new work by Espinoza never-before exhibited publicly. As the title paradoxically implies, Good Blue Day presents the layered tension within Espinoza's oeuvre. Collectively, these works juxtapose the duality of his practice - controlled / uncontrolled, formal / informal, grid / chance, offering a playful, simultaneous entry point to re-read Espinoza's work. Newer and previous work will be exhibited together thematically rather than chronologically. This exhibition aims to present Espinoza's work without the laudity of institutional politics, and rather with a new blue bread that shows an unconstrained and "support-less" approach.In addition, Espinoza's work is presented non-geographically to show the eclectic contexts from which the artist is currently resides, among others. Claire Breukel shares:

Eugene Espinoza is an artist of the Americas "

“When I met Eugenio I was inspired by his dynamism and his free approach to making, changing, reproducing and expanding upon his work. To me he is one of the most important contemporary artists of his time, and his boundary breaking investigations, his signature grid
