Artistas en residencia

Artistas en residencia

Held within the framework of the Artists in Residence programme, Acento is a two-day event presenting some of the projects conceived and developed during the 2017 programme. The idea is to facilitate a meeting place with the artists in the 2018 programme. At the event the two organising institutions wish to place the accent on ideas that arose during artistic experimentation using the body, understanding it as the social body and a political construct that produces knowledge through the senses.

Artists in Residence is a programme organised jointly by La Casa Encendida and CA2M Centro de Arte Dos de Mayo, whose goal is to support creation and experimentation focused on performative work with the body.

The artists selected in 2017 were: Aníbal Conde & Magdalena Leite, Anna Moreno, Bárbara Bañuelos Ojeda, Laia Estruch, Quim Bigas, SEPA & Lara Brown, Vicente Arlandis Recuerda.

PROGRAMME

WEDNESDAY 24 JAN
CA2M Centro de Arte Dos de Mayo

18:00. Laia Estruch: MOAT

Moat is an experimental performance practice, a solo devised from a series of body and vocal exercises worked around a moveable iron structure (created from the recovery of different elements and typological forms of children’s playgrounds from the beginning of the last century) which acts at the same time as stage, score, and archive. Through a direct relationship between body and structure, Moat experiments, creates sounds and routes generated by body and voice, taking the bodily and acoustic behaviours of the aforementioned recreational spaces as a reference.

Moat becomes a kind of transversal space by means of a series of performances, whose sound register gives rise to audible research within a transitable iron structure.

Laia Estruch’s projects are based in the field of performance, working with her voice as a tool and place for experimenting with her artistic ideas. Her projects question the existing system of signs in oral language and their human interaction with a performative and critical approach to the use of voice.

19:30. Presentation of the publication of Artists in residence (Library)

20:00. Aníbal Conde and Magdalena Leite: FLICKER

A 50-minute stage show inspired by the idea of the electronic flicker of experimental film.

FLICKER was created during a residency at Casa Encendida and CA2M as part of the LOS40 project; Together, the two artists have created: DANCE DANCE DANCE with over 50 public performances; VIDEOCLIP; Experimento X5; and various creative exercises both for the theatre as well as for performance and image.

Aníbal Conde is a video artist and performer.
Conde works in the performing arts from a cross-section of disciplines, making experimental videos focused on the formal aspects of the moving image. His videos and documentaries have been screened at various festivals.

Magdalena Leite is a choreographer, dancer and teacher.
Leite was awarded a danceWEB scholarship from the ImpulsTanz Festival; IBERESCENA funding for creation in 2010 and in 2014 and from the Prince Claus Foundation for the presentation of Jack Taste la suerte está echada.

21:30 h. Sepa & Lara Brown: SUGA
SuGA is a confused, altered state.
A moment of hyperlucidness.
A cosmic dramatization.
A video-clip.
SuGa is a ghost.
A tone.
A pact.
You’d never think it, Windows 10 looks so well but yet if you have to go and program...
SuGA tries to entangle itself in invisible little threads.
In cramps.
Little sparks.
Those dimensions that complicate everything.

Sepa writes sentences on posters and sticks them up around the place on walls. What Lara Brown does is to utter the sentences out loud.

They both spend a lot of time wondering what kind of things happen between other people. SUGA could be a conjunction of their initials, but obviously it is not. They are texts written on paper that are introduced on stage. One after the other. All the time.

THURSDAY 25 JANUARY

La Casa Encendida

20:30. Quim Bigas: APPRAISERS
APPRAISERS is an ongoing project that explores formats engaging with choreographic activations that revolve around the idea of value, attention, order and/or the present. During the residency, he conversed with a wall and its possible constellations based on the excuse of NAMING. Naming inasmuch as something that points, that shoots, that moves, that is instantaneous, that signals, that accumulates …

Quim Bigas works with choreography, dance, and the performing arts. Through processes mixing informational procedures and exploring movement he engages with notions and reflections on commitment, value, format and performance.

FRIDAY 26 JANUARY
El Torito de Moratalaz cultural centre

19:00. Anna Moreno. THE DROWNED GIANT
A happening took place in Moratalaz (Madrid) in 1970 to promote La Ciudad en el Espacio, a utopian residential project by the architect Ricardo Bofill. The event was never documented, and the project itself was never built. Last 7 June, the artist Anna Moreno repeated the happening in the same place as in 1970.

Anna Moreno, together with the blues expert Ramón del Solo (among others), will present the publication The Drowned Giant, a LP with a sound recording of this process of restitution, the only existing documentation of the event. The record contains eye-witness accounts by Gila Dohle, The Downtown Alligators, Enrique Doza, Peter Hodgkinson, Anna Moreno, JC Ramone, Toti Soler and Ramón del Solo, among others. The publication will also include a score with fiction stories written by the architects Paula Currás & Havi Navarro, the curator María Montero, the blues expert Ramón del Solo and the artist herself. The presentation at once will be a prologue for the Moratalaz Blues Factory festival.

The presentation will be followed by a concert by The Downtown Alligators, a local rhythm and blues band who have been playing in Madrid and around Spain for over ten years.

The publication has been produced with the support of Barcelona Producció'17, La Capella / Institut de Cultura de Barcelona, and tutored by Latitudes (Mariana Cánepa and Max Andrews).

The presentation is supported by Acento, the Moratalaz blues festival, Experimenta Distrito (Medialab Prado) and the Junta Municipal de Moratalaz.

Anna Moreno is a visual artist who works between The Hague (Netherlands) and Barcelona. She is currently a teacher in Artistic Research at the Royal Academy of Art in The Hague and is a co-founder of the Helicopter art initiative, a space for experimentation and the exchange of knowledge.

La Casa Encendida

22:00. Vicente Arlandis: SUMARIO 3/94

On 25 June 1995, Vicente Arlandis Ruiz, a resident of Ibi (Alicante), was arrested by the Guardia Civil. He was under investigation for the murder of María Lidia Bornay Bernabeu, an 84-year-old woman also from Ibi. It was Vicente himself who had reported her disappearance four days earlier when María Lidia did not answer his calls. When the Guardia Civil entered her home, they discovered her corpse with multiple signs of violence. Vicente Arlandis Ruiz was accused and finally declared guilty of the murder. He was sentenced to 29 years, 6 months and 1 day of prison. He fulfilled his sentence in various prisons in Spain for 13 years, 7 months and 10 days.

This project wishes to construct a new story and a new version of the facts. It wishes to recover and question the form and multiplicity of the stories that arose around the incident; to start off from the coldness and purported objectivity of the court proceedings and to explode it into a thousand pieces. And to recover our history in our own way. This project wishes to construct a kind of new innocence. Not as much one decreed by the judicial system (which we are still calling for today), but the innocence that could be materialised (renovated, amplified) by the performative act.

Vicente Arlandis is a stage creator, investigator and teacher. From 2001 to 2015 he worked with Sandra Gómez on the project Losquequedan where they created many artistic projects like the series Borrones, Thank You Very Much, Tragedia de los Comunes, among others. At the current moment he is participating in the collective project TALLER PLACER alongside Mariví Martín, Miguel Ángel Martínez and Paula Miralles.

Admission free until capacity is reached, with the exception of the session with Vicente Arlandis.

Admission for Vicente Arlandis: €5

Tickets sales on ticketea.com, on telephone (+34) 902 044 226 and at La Casa Encendida from 10:00 – 21:45.

With a mandate to support artistic creation and research centred on performative work with the body, the Artists in Residence programme is organised jointly by La Casa Encendida and CA2M.

Acento is a three-day seminar in which the projects carried out during the Artists in Residence programme in 2015 will be presented in public. The idea is also to offer a forum where the artists chosen for the programme in 2016 can meet the artists who have just passed through the experience in 2015. Over the three days the two organising institutions wish to focus on a rethinking of artistic production using the body, understanding it as a social body and as a political construct that produces knowledge from the sentient.

The artists chosen in 2015 were: Alejandra Pombo, Ignacio de Antonio, Los bárbaros: Miguel Rojo & Javier Hernando, Marisol López Rubio, Poderío vital, Silvia Zayas and Terrorismo de autor.

The artists chosen in 2016 are: Lilli Hartman, Gérald Kurdian, Norberto Llopis, Julián Pacomio , Claudia Pagés, Quim Pujol and Silvia Ulloa.

Acento is a program linked with a Artists in Residence. Projects carried out during 2013 stays will be resented and a meeting space with 2014 artists will be created. Both institutions want to stress the reflection resulting from artistic production that happens through the body. Body is hereby understood as social body, as a political construction that that transforms sensitivity into knowledge.

Artisits selected in 2013 were: Elisa Arteta,  Cristina Blanco, Pablo Esbert, Carmen Fumero, Martín Llavaneras, Cecilia Lisa Eliceche, Elpida Orfanidou and Juan Perno,  Ángela Peris, Jesús Rubio Gamo and Navidad Santiago.

PROGRAMMING

THU 13 FEB IN LCE

20.30h. Building Ropes, by Carmen Fumero

This is a journey made with sensations. Two people relate with each other using intuition represented by their hands, able to express desire and impulse. Sometimes they feel a spontaneous and intuitive need to follow the same direction; sometimes guiding is their objective, and some others they let themselves go. The hands answer the need to recover that emotion. As a result, a past sensation.

Carmen Fumero has carried out several solo projects, among which a work from 2011, with the support of Laura Kumin and Daniel Abreu stands out. In 2010 she received a residence grant in Teatros del Canal through Madrid Choreographic Contest, and that is when she creates her first big format work, Irony, which opened at Teatro Pradilo in 2011. In 2013 she received two choreographic residences, one in Teatros del Canal and another one in La Casa Encendida.

21.30h. SuperFicials, by Navidad Santiago

This work is a reflection on matter’s communication capacity, starting from elemental particles until reaching human behavior. Because behind modern science, behind fractures and unions, behind love and unease, behind social change, poetry and fiction, our behavior patterns convey the conduct of the most essential matter, of the most superficial matters.

Navidad Santiago (Madrid, 1975) holds a Sociology degree by the UCM. Madrid; a post-graduate degree in Political History by Palachejo University. Olomouc. Chec Republic, and a degree in Classical Dance by África Guzmán, SCAENA, Madrid Dance Center.

FRI 14 FEB IN CA2M

19.00 h. Elpid’arc, by Elpida Orfanidou and by Juan Perno

Elpida Orfanidou and Juan Perno decide to plunge into an impossible adventure: to copy and recreate one of the most important works of the history of cinema, the silent movie La passion de Jeanne d’Arc (1928) directed by C.Th.Dreyer and featuring María Falconetti as main actress. Elpid’arc is a film-performance where cinema and theatre become an alchemical solution. The unexpected encounter between mysticism, everyday life and sense of humor makes this work fascinating.

Elpida Orfanidou (Greece, 1981) is a Greek choreographer and performer; she studied dance and performance in Athens, Arnhem, Montpellier and London. She has created several solo projects that were gathered in “One is almost never”. She has worked with Herman Heisig (United States) and Juan Perno ( Elpid’arc). As a performer she has worked with Gui garrido, Tim Etchells, Mahela Rostek and Meg Stuart among others.

Juan Perno (Madrid, 1980) holds a degree in Philosophy (UAM Madrid) and a PhD in Aesthetic, Photography and Audiovisual Communication (Fine Arts College. Universidad Politécnica of Valencia). He has been a teacher of real and live cinema and video in several centers. He worked as a creative director of digital advertisement in Italy for four years. At the time he works in projects mainly focused on appropriation in different fields such as video, photography and theatre. Elpid'arc is his last work. It’s a co-production between HAU Theatre Berlin and the Onassis Foundation in Athens, together with La Casa Encendida and CA2M.

20.30h. Vortex agitator, by Cristina Blanco

Vórtex agitator is Cristina Blanco’s brand new project. Starting with the wish to work with different genres (cinema, opera, theatre, musical, etcetera…) the artist researches on each genre’s conventions in order to question their rules and to surprisingly combine them. A live collage of genres that talk to each other and break their own codes, questioning their own nature and playing at changing the rules. Why do we associate a symphonic orchestra playing dissonant music with a scary movie? What happens if the credits at the end of a James Bond movie have a background of traditional bagpipe Galician music? How do E.T. and a bishop live together in the Far West? What about a Sevillana dancer and a ninja fighter in a spaceship?

After getting a degree in Mime Theatre by RESAD, Cristina Blanco works as an actress in several theatre companies. She gets interested in dance and follows a few workshops, plays different roles in a few short films and sings in a few bands. In 2004 she creates her first solo project: cUADRADO_fLECHA_pERSONA qUE cORRE (square, arrow, person who runs). In 2006, she creates caixa preta_caja negra together with Brazilian choreographer Claudia Müller. In 2008 she opens The Nevestarting Story, a project by Cuqui Jerez, María Jerez, Amaia Urra and Cristina Blanco. In October 2009 she opens The Croquis Reloaded in Madrid, a work by Cuqui Jerez with Cristina Blanco. In September 2010 she features TELETRANSPORTATION installation/piece created for Mapa festival, and in October she opens ciencia_ficción (science-fiction), a solo chat-process-blog-concert.

SAT 15 FEB IN LCE

17.30h. Impermanence, by Elisa Arteta

The artist proposes a corporeal, visual and sound experience that refers to constant change and no-return. The artist’s movements are limited in this situation and she needs to adapt her body to a new habitat. When time passes by, a well-defined trail is left behind which becomes the memory of what happened there. Meanwhile the audience can freely walk around the installation and choose the duration of their experience.

Elisa Arteta is a dancer in the broad sense of the term. Her work shows many layers and interests, ranging from video camera use, to proprioception study or the search of ways to integrate different themes on stage. At the moment she questions the intentions of a body that is displayed on stage and the meaning of the concept of choreography itself. She always looks for very different contexts to present her work. http://elisaarteta.com/

18.30h. Sound-sensing the space, by Ángela Peris Alcantud

This work is about inventing a new sound reality. This reality exists and it’s right here, around us. In order for this world to come into light, it needs to be vibrated, told, noted down, whispered, broken down, played and displayed. The idea of sound-sensing results from the need of creating movement through sound. Our own imagination or an external factor (all the sounds around us) could be creating this sound. In both cases and both through the internal and the external sound, sentences are created with the body and the voice that finally become a rhythmic score, a piece of sound and movement. Sound-sensing means to experience sound islands that together make a noisy and invented archipelago.

Ángela Peris Alcantud holds a degree and a master in Audiovisual Communication; she studied choreography and dance in Martha Graham School and Dance Space Center (now DNA), New York; in SNDO, School for New Dance Development, Holland, and in Institut del Teatre, Barcelona. Her work is a quest for a meeting point between movement, voice and thought. Together with artist Alma Söderberg, in 2012 she created ALLES, a piece designed for children. Also, since 2011 she works as a collaborating artist in Yehudi Menuhin Foundation in Spain, as part of the Mus-e program, art for coexistence. http://angelaperis.blogspot.com.es/

20.00h. The rape of Europa (2013 - ad infinitum), by Jesús Rubio Gamo.

Searching for a subjective-collective non-historical memory

Jesús Rubio Gamo aims at creating a meeting point in Madrid city with the goal of building a collective memory that is both subjective and emotional. A "memorial emotional and dramatic monument" would be created to be shared with others through samples of this very monument and additional activities (such as round tables and debates) revolving around this process.

Jesús Rubio Gamo (Madrid, 1982) holds a Master in Performing Arts and Visual Culture by Alcalá de Henares University and Reina Sofía National Museum, 2011-2012. He is a play-wright. Co-author of texts presented by the Sala Cuarta Pared, Madrid, in 2010 "White Night" event; guest choreographer, Spanish representative in Das 6 Tagen Rennen International Festival. Creation of a piece with residence in Pact-Zollverein, Essen. Shows in Madrid, Lucerne and Essen. German-Spanish-Swiss co-production, 2010.

21.30h. Going nowhere together, by Pablo Esbert

Going nowhere together is performance that seems to be a concert, a ritual that seems to be a ballet solo, and a collective experience that seems to be a show. During two months I have invited other artists, friends, relatives and strangers to spend a day with me; a day to share physical and sound practice, to reflect and discover together going nowhere.
http://goingnowheretogether.wordpress.com/

Pablo Esbert Lilienfeld creates his own theatre and audiovisual works since 2005. He closely works with Alessandro Sciarroni and with other European choreographers. At the same time, he works as a musician and video-creator. He studied Audiovisual Communcation in Universidad Complutense, Contemporary Dance in RCPD and music in the Creative Music School.
