SISTEMÁTICA Y SEDUCTORA II – São Paulo, Brasil. October, November and December 2020.

RESEARCH

PREVIOUS RESIDENCIES.

Production of Contemporary Art and Social Processes.

In the Residencies of Contemporary Art and Social Processes, residents work together with communities, their organizations and neighbors in ways to approach the local imaginary through an instance of total immersion. This program has been developed in Argentina, Chile and Brazil; and they have been organized in conjunction with local organizations.

Contemporary Art Field Research.

In the Contemporary art field research residencies we conducted a critical review, study cases and a mapping contemporary art work in local scenes in Latin America. These residences are organized around a hypothesis and a work plan related to topics such as Autonomous Management, Art Biennial, Art Pedagogy, Economy and Market, and Art Institution.

Contemporary Art System Research.

In the Art System Research Residencies we carry out a collaborative debate, conceptualization and diagramming of the complexity of the field, its processes and its phenomena. The objective of this program is the survey and organization of data, the comparative study and the production of conceptualization (from Latin American references) on the structure of the contemporary art system.

WHAT WE DO WITH WHAT WE LEARN?

At the end of each Residence the participants make a public presentation of the progress of their experience in research, work methodology, conceptualization and resulting proposals. This presentation is made at the residence space as well as by videoconference.

Knowledge must not be patrimonial, so the presentations become part of the arquive RESERVA IDEOLÓGICA (physicaly and online) available as a reference and working material for an open and constant debate.
