Stefano, Joseph Dadoune, Frederic Nakache, Kohji, Diana Shpungin

Tunnel
vision describes a phenomenon where a person focuses only on one
aspect of an object or a concept, while ignoring other realities.
Tunnel vision represents the inward gaze and the process of the
creation of metaphoric internal worlds taken from the outside or
just invented. It can be the physical representation of the internal
gaze, virtual realities, monumental landscapes, re-constructed bodies,
dream-like lives, symbolic objects or parallel worlds. They all
speak about introspection, the capacity of imagining and the creation
of a new subjectivity.
Photography
and video will engage the spectator through a long journey of impressive
worlds. We kindly invite you to witness Karen Knorr's magnificent
staged photographs and videos, Milton Manetas´ computer game video
alterations, Daniel De Azoulay´s superb monumental landscapes, Victor
Vazquez's symbolic chairs, Alessandra Sanguinetti´s dreamlike adventures
of two pre-adolescent girls, Alfredo De Stefano´s interventions
on the Mexican desert, David Levinthal´s religious icons, Maxi Cohen´s
self portraits in rest-rooms, Diana Shpungin and Nicole Englemann´s
collaborative videos on relationships. Also, a pair of Joseph Dadoune´s
new images on rituals and religion, Amalia Caputo´s protected feminine
torsos, Frederic Nakache´s videos on animated dolls, Kohji´s video,
Maritza Molina´s intervention on nature, and Renata Poljak´s videos
on domesticity underwater.
They
all blend to a powerful group of artists, whose work is characterized
by subjectivity, inner vision and a new way of perceiving reality,
veiling and unveiling private worlds.
Tunnel
Vision will be accompanied by an installation of Cerj Lalonde entitled
"://EYE LUV YOU//", a sound piece called "Trick environs.02"
by Eduardo Lopez and an outside sculpture, " White Moon Pendulum",
by Heriberto Nieves.
