Xavier Andrade

This exhibition presents a selection of experimental videos by the Mexican philosopher Manuel DeLanda that deal centrally with the urban architectural language and the ontology of images. Although based on the disfigurement and reconfiguration of the visual and the aural, his works unleash a type of immersion that puts the merely spectator stay in crisis by showing the emergent character of the filmic work itself and the experience that it provokes when confronting it spatially. Just as his theoretical work is concerned with the origins of material forms, DeLanda's film deliveries provide a legacy that forces us to think about a contemporary life close to chaos and the implosion of material, social and virtual relationships.

    Daniele Puppi


    Born in Pordenone in 1970, lives and works in Rome, he is among the most interesting Italian artists of his generation. The technologies normally used (video projectors, synchronizers, amplifiers, subwoofers, loudspeakers, microphones) function as activators and amplifiers of the perceptual abilities of the spectators, mainly visual and auditory. The viewer, as an integral part of the work, is called to enter a new alienating spatial-sensory dimension.

    ChDH Collective


    The chdh collective studies image/sound relationships by creating visual and audio algorithmic synthesizers. They mainly use these audiovisual instruments in live performances. Using equations that describe natural mechanisms, they generate abstract choreographies of particles whose minimalist matter reveals underlying structures of great complexity, formed by strange organic attractors. In search of a synesthetic radicality, his hypnotic performances work on joint movements between image and sound and belong as much to experimental cinema as to improvised music in the way they are performed.
