Monographie consacrée au travail de l'artiste chilien Enrique Ramirez, né en 1979 qui vit et travaille entre Paris et Santiago. Ses installations, ses films et ses photographies évoquent, de manière poétique, l'Histoire, les relations entre les continents et les réalités sociales contemporaines. Il montre de vastes paysages, territoires ouverts à la vision et à la déambulation, et parle de l'imaginaire subjectif et de la discontinuité de la mémoire.

Hardcover . ------ 344 pages . ****************************** "" Since the late 1990s, Erlich (b. 1973, Buenos Aires, lives in Buenos Aires) has created a highly distinctive body of sculptures and site-specific installations in which the architectural appearance of the everyday functions as a perceptual trap, leading an unsuspecting viewer into a visual paradox that systematically defies certain laws and attributes of the material world. In Erlich's parallel universe, stairs lead nowhere, elevators don't stop at any destination, passive spectators become active participants, clouds take on physical characteristics, and the solidity of constructed spaces turns out to be a fleeting optical illusion. Liminal has been conceived as a sequence of spaces that one might encounter in the course of an ordinary day: elevator, subway, classroom, hair salon, sidewalk, swimming pool, laundry room?even a window through which the neighbors' windows can be seen. Each space is fabricated to serve as a precise simulation of the place it references, so that the encounter with Erlich's illusion tends to occur as a surprise on the viewer's part that such an ordinary spot should conceal such extraordinary qualities. The exhibition's title refers to a transitional zone located at the threshold of another space, and indirectly suggests being on the verge of crossing over, or entering into, a new destination or state of existence?a sensation reinforced in Erlich's work. To hover at the liminal edge of an experience suggests being caught between a prior reality that has been left behind, and a new reality beckoning at close range, but always slightly beyond our grasp. Erlich's work suggests that despite our collective pride at being able to instinctually locate ourselves within the physical world, the truth is that most of us are engaged in an extended game of probability and chance, in which situations that can only be real within our dreams cast a spell of enchantment over our waking lives. The accumulated impact of experiencing multiple Erlich works within a single exhibition tends to leave viewers with an intensified awareness of this inherent duality about daily life.

Reliure éditeur cartonnée / Tapa dura - 20 x 28 cm ------ 224 pages . 130 illustrations. ******************************** "" « Water is at the heart of Enrique Ramírez's work: destructive, purifying, a source of life and death, healing, regenerating? The sea is the pre-symbolic whole from which Ramírez projects his ontological vision as a metaphor expressing the depth of being, its death and perpetual regeneration. It is through the sea that Ramírez, a navigator, connects people, territories and history. Through the sea, the history of Chile is confronted with its demons, and the great tales of travellers, conquests, migratory flows, immensity, depth, movement and the call of the open sea intersect, touching on the origins of being and the world, their relationship and meaning. [?] Enrique Ramírez speaks of art, of the work of art, as a window opening onto an elsewhere. A window built by questions about the world we have created. For him, creation is the possibility of an elsewhere, of a language that has not yet spoken, but which at the same time comes from the depths of life. Creating is an act of resistance to the world as it is, but also an act of persistence and hope ». Ángeles Alonso Espinosa "" ****************************** ref od. N° de réf. du vendeur Y857701
