OBSERVACIONES SOBRE LA CIUDAD DE POLVO
Raimond Chaves y Gilda Mantilla
Galería Revolver
Del 21 de mayo al 19 de junio 2010
Raimond Chaves (1963, Bogotá) y Gilda Mantilla (1967, Los Ángeles) presentan en la Galería Revolver la exposición Observaciones sobre la ciudad de polvo, una propuesta que plantea una lectura de Lima a partir de sus condiciones climatológicas a modo de un peculiar observatorio poético-meteorológico.
Los trabajos confrontan la particularidad climática de Lima –un largo y monótono invierno, etc…- con todo un lastre de convenciones científicas, estereotipos sociales y demás discursos interesados, que en clave de fatalidad presentan como natural e inamovible un status-quo social y político que se quisiera inmutable. Observaciones sobre la ciudad de polvo, busca evidenciar la condición extraña y alienada de la vida en las ciudades, resaltando a su modo las circunstancias propias de Lima.
Chaves y Mantilla se alejan de su modus operandi más reciente -la práctica del dibujo y su amplio abanico de posibilidades- y varían su enfoque y preocupación sobre las imágenes, presentando una serie de piezas bi y tridimensionales a caballo entre la escultura y la instalación. Manipulando materiales sencillos -como cartón reciclado y madera- con rigor y contundencia conceptual, el resultado apuesta por la parquedad, la aspereza y el hermetismo como formas de señalamiento.
Observaciones sobre la ciudad de polvo recibió para su realización una de las Becas de Artes Plásticas otorgadas por la Fundación Marcelino Botín en su XVIª edición, formando parte de la exposición anual de becarios “Itinerancias 2008-2009” en Santander, España. Además este mismo conjunto de piezas será exhibido en Galería ProjecteSD de Barcelona el próximo mes de junio.
Chaves y Mantilla, con exposiciones en Madrid, Barcelona y Lima, han presentado sus trabajos conjuntos en diversas exhibiciones internacionales como la 27ª Bienal de Sao Paulo (2006) y la II trienal Poli/Gráfica de San Juan, Latinoamérica y el Caribe (2009). Éstos también han sido mostrados en espacios como el MUSAC (Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de Castilla y León) y el Patio Herreriano (Museo de Arte Contemporáneo Español) en España, y en ferias de arte como Miami Basel y ARCO, entre otros. Su obra está presente en diversas colecciones privadas en Perú, Puerto Rico, España y Estados Unidos, así como en colecciones públicas como las de el MOMA (Museo de Arte Moderno de Nueva York), el MUSAC, y el MALI (Museo de Arte de Lima).
Chaves y Mantilla colaboran juntos desde el año 2001, han publicado los libros Hangueando Periódico de Cordel – Descarga Cultural en Puerto Rico (2004) y Dibujando América (2009) entre otros. Viven y trabajan en Lima.

Galería Revolver, Calle General Recavarren # 298,Miraflores
