Christian Faur
Posted by Fabio 10 December 2010
Christian Faur painstakingly casts hundreds, even thousands of encaustic crayons to create his ‘pointillist’ portraits based on vintage photographs from the 1930’s. By using the pointed ends of the variously colored crayons to make the features and color modulations in the faces and backgrounds, the works look from afar pixilated and contemporary. Close up, a matrix of colors emerge, as the identity, which is lost to begin with, is completely lost. read more

Living in Mumbai, I became fascinated with the photographic conventions of the exotic and of travel. The much-maligned crows of the city gather in the hundreds at sunset each night, moving constantly and loudly between telephone wires, rooftops, and any available perches. The crows are an integral part of Mumbai life, and yet do not figure within the conventional picturesque nor within the frameworks of conventional landscape.

Pilar Albarracín
Posted by Fabio 2 December 2010
Pilar Albarracín is one of the most significant artists of the contemporary Andalusian scene. Her productions have focused on the analysis of dominant narratives and, specifically, on the clichés which represent Andalusian identity; not from a remote and intellectualised perspective, but through an emotional and subversive immersion in the anthropology of the everyday. read more
