registro fotográfico montaje Edificio Neruda, Nueva Las Condes, 19 de noviembre de 2011

Tierra Pacífica” / Serie Los Andes: columna vertebral de América
Tinta Ultrachrome sobre tela (2.40 x 8.00 mt)

Estudio morfológico de la Cordillera de Los Andes donde se aprecia en su macizo central, el Cerro el Plomo y sus formaciones colindantes que circunscriben el valle de Santiago del Nuevo Extremo. Hacia el frente, se pueden apreciar formaciones rocosas que caracterizan el litoral central, propias de una geografía accidentada cuyas capas tectónicas son de origen volcánico. En el centro de ambas composiciones surgen ondulaciones con aguadas de Tusche (pigmento de alta densidad) que sugieren de manera inusitada el Océano Pacífico. Lo anterior nos hace reflexionar sobre la prehistoria geofísica de Chile, donde el valle central fue en algún momento parte del océano.

Pacific Land” / The Andes: Vertical Column of America Series
Ultrachrome ink on museum canvas (2.40 x 8.00mt)

The Andes Mountains morphological study where in its central view, El Plomo summit can be recognized and its surrounding mountain range encompassing the valley of Santiago del Nuevo Extremo. In the foreground, rock formations can be observed which identify Chilean central coast line inherent to dramatic landform whose tectonic layers are of volcanic origin. In the middle of both compositions, Tusche water washes undulations make reference to the Pacific Ocean. The previous is a reflection upon prehistoric Chilean geography, where at one point in time, the central valley was part of the ocean.

Tierra Volcánica” / Serie Los Andes: columna vertebral de América
Tinta Ultrachrome sobre tela (2.40 x 8.00 mt)   

Visión apologética del mundo Andino como una cultura volcánica. Si bien la actividad volcánica se extiende a lo largo de toda la Cordillera de Los Andes, la singularidad de Chile está en primer lugar por su número de volcanes, más de 2.900 de los cuales 80 de ellos están activos. Junto con lo anterior, el gran número de volcanes están ensimismados sobre un abismo que es el Océano Pacífico, cuya cuenca está prácticamente en su totalidad bañada por la corriente de Humboldt. Lo descrito hace que Chile tenga una temperatura específica baja en una cantidad extraordinaria de latitudes. Consecuentemente, es la razón principal de por qué nuestro país tiene uno de los mejores climas del mundo.

Volcanic Land” / The Andes: Vertical Column of America Series
Ultrachrome ink on museum canvas (2.40 x 8.00mt)

Apologetic vision of the Andean World in the form of a volcanic culture. Although volcanic activity constitutes great part of The Andes mountain range, the particularity of Chile is in the first place, the number of volcanoes, more than 2.900 where 80 of them are currently active. Together with the above, a great number of volcanoes are absorbed by the Pacific Ocean Rim abyss, whose basin is practically in its totality washed by the Humboldt Current. The described, allows Chile a low specific temperature throughout an extraordinary amount of latitudes. Consequently, it’s the principal reason why the country has one of the best climates in the world.    



Vista Nueva Las Condes 

Los murales anteriormente descritos creados por el artista chileno, Alexander Sutulov, tienen como propósito introducir un nuevo concepto de instalaciones permanentes para espacios públicos tanto institucionales como corporativos. En el caso específico de Nueva Las Condes, el artista tiene un especial interés dado su unicidad como espacio urbano. En una publicación reciente en Visual Artbeat Magazine, una publicación especializada en arte en Salzburgo, Alexander Sutulov da cuenta sobre el futuro que le depara a la ciudad de Santiago como capital financiera en Latinoamérica y lo importante que resulta entender el posicionamiento de Chile frente el mundo. En este sentido, gran parte de su obra ha estado dedicada precisamente a la identidad de nuestro país y su implementación en espacios estratégicos. Frente lo anterior, el artista resume el complejo de edificios corporativos en Nueva Las Condes  como la respuesta más coherente al nuevo paradigma; lo cual invita y posibilita exhibir obras que no solamente hablan sobre nuestra identidad, sino además, se proyectan con fuerza hacia un futuro que singulariza a Chile como una estrella en el Hemisferio Sur.

The described murals created by Chilean Artist, Alexander Sutulov are part of a new concept of public permanent installations for corporate and institutional entities. In the specific case of Nueva Las Condes financial district, the artist has a special interest considering its urban planning uniqueness. At a recent art magazine publication in Salzburg, Visual Artbeat Magazine; Alexander Sutulov writes about the future of Santiago as a financial capital for Latin-America and the importance of understanding Chile’s positioning vis-à-vis the rest of the world. In this respect, great part of his work has been precisely dedicated to Chile’s identity and its implementation for strategic public spaces. All things considered, the artist resumes the business center building complex in Nueva Las Condes, as the new paradigm’s most coherent respond; which in return, invites and makes possible exhibiting artwork which not only speaks of our identity as a whole, but also, projects itself with a singularizing force where Chile emerges as a bright new star in the Southern Hemisphere.

Details of a forthcoming exhibition I'm showing Netscapes (http://www.asquare.org/works/netscapes) at in New York.  Apologies for cross posting.

-----------------------------

Notes on a New Nature is a physical manifestation of an ongoing research project conducted by artist, writer, and curator Nicholas O'Brien. The research critically examines and compares the relationships that contemporary artists working with digital media have to practices started in Modernist Painting – specifically the pursuit of capturing the virtual qualities of what constitutes a landscape. How does an artist depict a sp...ace faithfully enough to show its affect on a subject? Can art capture the space between the viewer and the horizon, and where does that horizon reside now that we can digitally circumnavigate the globe? Can the digital reconcile the physical?

One way that we know how to understand the natural is through the domestic spaces of our daily lives. The interior shelter allows for reflection on what is “outside,” and as a result positions civilization away from the natural. However, as various digital and virtual landscape permeate the domestic space, our notion of what constitutes the natural has become more complicated than a simple inside/outside dichotomy. We use all forms of digital and analog technologies to simulate the natural world daily, and artists in this show point to how these tools affect the ways in which the “realness” of the natural is no longer as simple as locating it outside your window.

This newfound complication highlights the central argument of Notes on a New Nature: our varied notion of what constitutes the natural is shaped by technology, which is a narrative that can be traced all the way back to the advent of agriculture and the dawn of civilization. Through employment of various digital approaches, artists in this exhibition reference this long-standing problem we face when attempting to represent landscape and acknowledge the ways in which digital technology has forever changed our understanding of nature.

Participating artists include: Duncan Alexander, Mark Beasley, Chris Collins, Petra Cortright, Theo Darst, Marjolijn Dijkman, Paul Flannery, Joe Hamilton (aka  Hypergeography), Jan Robert Leegte, Sara Ludy, Garrett Lynch, Michael Ray-Vaughn, Sherwin Rivera Tibayan, Nicolas Sassoon, Rick Silva, Pascual Sisto, Kate Steciw, Wes W Wilson, and Krist Wood.

Response from Artreview about the petition against censorship on user profiles has not been forthcoming. 

http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/artreview-isp-censorship/

Artreview have been informed of the petition by email and recorded delivery letter which they accepted so we now know they are aware of this.  It seems Artreview care very little about this issue or the concerns of their community, at least not enough to have the courtesy to form a statement and update their community, an update they promised in the initial announcement.  Active members who are genuinely concerned about this now have two choices:

1) Increase the pressure on Artreview to make some statement;
2) Or more severely to pull out of Artreview, after all without members Artreview won't have a community.

If you chose the former I have made the letter sent to Artreview available online for anyone to download, sign with their details and post to Artreview in London.  Here it s in .doc and .rtf formats:

http://www.asquare.org/artreview/artreview-letter.doc
http://www.asquare.org/artreview/artreview-letter.rtf

The latter is and should be your personal choice.
Garrett Lynch Comment by Garrett Lynch on October 1, 2011 at 9:45pm

Members, I have now formally forwarded the petition on censorship to Artreview.com as an email (below).  If no response is received I will also forward the petition by post.  Hopefully we will have a positive respond soon.

 

---------

 

Dear Artreview.com

As a representative of a number of members of the artreview community, subscribers to the magazine and users of the website, I would like to draw your attention to a petition objecting to the censorship of our art dictated by your ISP as stated in your community announcement of the 6th of September 2011.

http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/artreview-isp-censorship/

We feel that this is yet another example of creative expression suppressed by the rules and regulations of corporate institutions and does not reflect or demonstrate understanding of the long traditions, histories and well established thematic and theoretic concerns of art.  Nudity in art has, is and will continue to be a subject matter of significant importance which reflects many of the concerns of the human condition.  We feel that it is poor form that you, a well established contemporary art magazine who itself has supported cutting edge and sometimes controversial art are allowing your provider to dictate what is 'acceptable' art and surprised that you have not considered how this issue might be dealt with as your online community grew. 

We understand that you have a contractual relationship with your ISP who regulate use of its servers and will be unlikely to effect change of their policies and so request that you consider changing your ISP to a more art community friendly provider rather than censor and possibly stunt what is a blossoming community.  In addition we request a statement from Artreview.com confirming how this issue is being resolved and as indication of support for artists' rights, your community members, to choose their modes of expression.

We hope that this petition will be seen by you as it is intended, an indication of concern on your community members part and that you will protect your constituency.

Sincerely
Garrett Lynch

Garrett Lynch Comment by Garrett Lynch on September 7, 2011 at 12:15pm
In response to Artreviews community announcement of user content censorship on the 6th of September I have created an online petition to gauge interest in how the community feel about this.  To read the full details of the email (you have by now most likely received a copy of this in your email) and sign the petition point your browser to:

Video Inaugural

Los Andes: columna vertebral de América

GASCO Foundation, Santiago, Chile, 20 de octubre de 2010

Alexander Sutulov: “Los caminos que elegimos con Hugo fueron muy distintos, distintas épocas, distintas generaciones. El lenguaje que nos une es uno solo de tal manera que nuestro encuentro fortuito fue una cuestión de tiempo en reconocer las distintas señales, las empatías que permiten aunar esfuerzos.

Inaugural Video

The Andes: Vertical Column of America

GASCO Foundation, Santiago, Chile, October 20th, 2010

Alexander Sutulov: “The roads we chose with Hugo were very different, different époques, different generations. The language which unifies us is only one; it was only a matter of time where our fortuitous encounter allowed recognizing a set of signals, empathies which permeate common efforts.

Fuimos peregrinos de tierras extranjeras que más que descubrir nuevos horizontes, nos permitió con el tiempo darnos cuenta más bien las diferencias que permitían entender de manera más cabal la unicidad que nos asignaban en el confín del mundo.

We were pilgrims of foreign lands which more than discovering new horizons, it allowed us with time to become more aware about our differences and understand in a more assertive way the uniqueness in which we are confined to the world’s borderland.

Donde la tierra comienza y donde la tierra termina pareciera un umbral de predestinación.

En cierta medida es un acto de generosidad. Desprenderse del propio ego y dar cabida a una tercera forma que hoy día se materializa en esta exhibición.”

Where the land ends and where the land begins appeared to be a threshold of predestination.

In a certain way it’s an act of generosity. Letting go one’s own ego in order to bring forward a third form, which today has been materialized in the current exhibition.”

¿Cuál es el motivo de la exhibición?

Hugo Marín: “Tiene que ver con la cordillera, con los terremotos, el tsunami y sobre todo tiene que ver con lo que implica la cordillera que es la columna vertebral de América. Es una columna vertebral que tiene este significado, la misma que tenemos y los volcanes que los estamos presentando con la parte de Alexander Sutulov; eso lo que me gusta de la realidad de jugar, dos artistas en relación a lo que es Latinoamérica, lo que es la cordillera de Los Andes, y estos Chacras que son los volcanes. “

What is the exhibition’s motif?

Hugo Marin: "It has to do with the Andes Mountains, with the earthquakes, the Tsunami and above all, it has to do with what the Andes Mountains imply being the vertebral column of America. It's a vertebral column which has this meaning, the same one we have and the volcanoes that we are presenting with Alexander Sutulov's part, which is what I like about reality’s playfulness, two artists in relation to what Latin-America is, what the Andes Mountains are, and this Chacras which are the volcanoes."

¿Cómo se originó esta exposición?

AS: “Bueno en realidad esto tiene un periplo bastante largo, básicamente un diálogo que yo he sostenido con Hugo durante cinco años. Ha sido una reivindicación sobre que es nuestra identidad como país. Desde una cosmovisión que se remonta desde luego, a un pasado precolombino y por otro lado, llevado a la contemporaneidad en términos de lo que una dimensión geofísica.

Había que ser más enfático en entender que lo que realmente nos diferencia realmente del Perú, de Argentina y por ende del resto del mundo. Entonces ahí llegamos a la conclusión de que esta particularidad, esta muralla nuestra que es la cordillera de Los Andes ensimismada en este gran océano que es el Océano Pacífico, entonces estos dos elementos crean este universo que en su inmediatez hablamos de que, hablamos del mejor clima del mundo. Desde esa visión nosotros hacemos este planteamiento de lo que se entiende hoy día con esta exhibición como Los Andes: columna vertebral de América.”

How did the exhibition originate?

AS: "The truth is it has been quite a long journey, basically a dialogue I have sustained with Hugo for the past five years. It has been a revendication about our identity as a country. From a worldview which amounts to a pre-Colombia past and on the other hand, a contemporaneity in terms of a geophysical dimension.

It was necessary to be emphatic in understanding what truly differentiated us from Peru, Argentina and by the same token, from the rest of the world. So there we arrived at the conclusion that this particularity, this wall of ours, which is the Andes Mountains engrossed by this vast ocean that is the Pacific Ocean; this two elements creating a universe which in its immediacy speaks of the best climate in the world. From such vision we make our statement of what is understood today as The Andes: Vertical Column of America."

¿Cómo fue trabajar con Alexander Sutulov?

HM: “Con Alexander que nos conocemos hace 5 años, más, más… casi 8, pero realmente hemos estado cultivando hace 5 años, un diálogo que me había interesado la parte digital. El ha sido para mí un maestro, un profesor que me ha llevado y de alguna manera yo lo invité también a él ha hacer con unos dibujos que yo había hecho con aguadas; él entonces hizo estas dimensiones en color que están aquí que él puso el color y yo le dije tómate la libertad para hacerlo. Entonces, es un encuentro de mundos muy personales, pero ese es el encuentro.”

How was it to work with Alexander Sutulov?

HM: “With Alexander whom we know each other for more than five years, more, more…almost eight, although we have truly been cultivating for five years a dialogue which interested me from a digital point of view. He has been for me a master, a teacher who has guided me and in a way I also invited him to work with some wash drawings I did; in return he made these colorful dimensions which were colored by him and I told him to take the liberty to do whatever he pleased. So, it’s the encounter of two very personal worlds, which makes up that encounter.”

¿Cómo fue trabajar con Hugo Marín?

AS: “Un aspecto más bien universal en que si se hicieron explícita esas diferencias, también descubrimos nuestras empatías. Ahora bien, cuál era el aspecto medular yo te diría el lenguaje gráfico. Es decir, Hugo tiene esa particularidad del artista que tan como escultor es un artista gráfico, porque hay una simbiosis ahí muy importante y eso era lo que a mí me interesaba rescatar con lo que yo quería trabajar. Me atrevería decirte que dentro del escenario más o menos de lo que es nuestro ámbito nacional, para mí era lejos el artista más interesante con quien yo podía colaborar y que había ese ánimo de hacerlo. O sea el tiene ese espíritu generoso de compartir, colaborar y hacer un esfuerzo mancomunado que es lo que tu vez reflejado hoy día.”

How was it to work with Hugo Marin?

AS: “A universal aspect where differences were made explicit, needless to say we also discovered our empathy. So now, what was the core aspect? I would say graphic language. In other words, Hugo has the particularity of being a sculptor as much as a graphic artist because there is a very important symbiosis, which is what I wanted to rescue within the context I intended to work with. I dare to say that within the scenery of our national artistic milieu, for me by far was the most interesting artist with whom I could collaborate and there was the intention to do so. In other words, he has that generous spirit of sharing, collaborating and making the common effort, which is being reflected here today.”

HM: “Los penitentes es un cambio de época, un cambio de cultura un cambio de lo que se está hablando ahora, especulando de lo que sucede el 2012, y una expansión de conciencia; una expansión de conciencia es la que se va acelerando con el tiempo, entonces es decir lo que en algún momento se hablado expansión del universo como dijo Einstein. Entonces, podría ser que ahora lo que se puede plantear es la contracción del universo, lo que estamos hablando de esa parte interesante, especulando por supuesto, porque ya estamos en la imaginación, la fantasía de lo que es, lo que podríamos decir la ficción, la ciencia ficción en este plano.”

HM: "The penitents are a change of époque, a change of culture; a change of what is being spoken nowadays, speculating about what will happen in 2012 together with a consciousness expansion, a consciousness expansion, which is accelerating in time, better said that which has been spoken about as the expansion of the universe according to Einstein. Otherwise, is what today can be observed as the contraction of the universe, speaking of that interesting part, obviously speculating because we are already in the imagination, the fantasy of what is, what could be referred to as fiction, the science fiction on this matter."

¿Cuáles son las virtudes del uso de la tecnología digital para el arte pictórico?

AS: “El soporte digital viene a ser una instancia más dentro de ese proceso de la gráfica, no es algo tan como revolucionario porque resulta que si yo lo veo desde la explicites, porque hay un monitor, porque hay una luz proyectada, porque hay una digitación de una información. No, eso no es lo relevante. Yo creo lo que lo relevante es más bien, en qué medida yo desde un lenguaje gráfico puedo establecer una situación aleatoria, es decir, la suma de las capas de información en el orden que a mí se me antoja, y que la construcción en el fondo iconográfica en este caso, es a partir de esa instancia.”

What are the virtues of applied digital technology in the realm of pictorial art?

AS: “Digital media is one resort more within the context of graphic process; it’s not revolutionary because it’s been observed from its explicitness, like a computer screen, a projected light or information digitalization. No, it’s not relevant. What I believe to be relevant is in which measure from a graphic language standing point of view, I can establish a random situation. In other words, the sum of layers in the order I wish and that the iconographic construction which takes place in this case is part of that same resourcefulness.”

¿Cuál es la respuesta que esperan ustedes del espectador con esta exposición?

AS: “Con Hugo en esta suerte de leitmotiv de buscar nuestra identidad en función una proyección hacia el futuro, vemos claramente como Chile necesita de una imagen, una nueva imagen, una imagen renovada. Y renovada me refiero no porque no va hablar del pasado, justamente va hablar del pasado, pero en esa imagen que se abre hacia un mundo descomunal no es cierto, como el Asia Pacífico, esta gran comunidad que del Asia Pacífico. Bueno que imagen queremos dar como país, como nos queremos proyectar. Entonces este trabajo que estamos haciendo puntualmente viene a dar un poco respuesta a eso.”

What do you expect from the spectators reactions with this exhibition?

AS: “With Hugo in this sort of leitmotif in seeking our identity through a future projection, we clearly realize how Chile requires an image, a new image, a renovated image. Renovated I mean not because it will not speak of the past, it will speak of the past, but through an image which opens itself into a borderless world like the Asian Pacific, this grand Asian Pacific community. Furthermore, what image do we wish to cast as a country, how do we want to view ourselves. Therefore, this work we are specifically in the making is part of our answer.”

Alexander Sutulov Comment by Alexander Sutulov on November 19, 2010 at 2:20pm



Sin lugar a dudas el trabajo interdisciplinario entre artistas plásticos y artistas aplicados se ha hecho cada día más imperativo, cuyo motor se relaciona intrínsecamente a un rasgo evolutivo del ser humano asociado al pensamiento visual.

In no doubt interdisciplinary work amongst visual and applied artist is each day more imperative, whose driving force is intrinsically related to an evolutionary trait related to human beings visual thinking.

Ejemplo de ello fue la reciente celebración del bicentenario minero que se realizó en las ruinas de Huanchaca en las vecindades de Antofagasta. A cargo del proyecto estuvo el arquitecto chileno, Agustín Quiroga, quien con su equipo de producción multimedia realizó una intervención lumínica haciendo alusión al legado histórico minero de Chile. De manera extraordinaria utilizó como soporte las mismas ruinas cuyo formato permitió un despliegue inédito de nuestra iconografía minera.

Example of the above was recent mining bicentennial celebration which took place at the Ruins of Huanchaca in the nearby vicinities of Antofagasta. In charge of the project was Chilean architect, Agustín Quiroga, whose multimedia media production team realized a luminal intervention in reference to Chilean historical mining legacy. In an extraordinary way he utilized the ruins as a substrate which allowed an unprecedented overview of our mining iconography.


En relación al evento que fue organizado por el Centro de Estudios del Cobre CESCO, entidad que congregó a los actores principales de la minería chilena tanto en el sector público como privado; tuvo como requerimiento dos instancias con respecto a la participación de Atelier Alexander Sutulov.

La primera fue la comisión de una imagen alegórica en referencia a los 33 mineros que sobrevivieron heroicamente al derrumbe de la mina San José. Obra que fue otorgada a los familiares de los mineros durante la ceremonia inaugural. La ocasión fue doblemente emotiva desde el momento que los familiares todavía esperaban el rescate que se produjo semanas más tarde.

In relation to the event which was organized by the Copper Studies Center CESCO, entity which congregated Chilean mining public and private principal actors; had two solicitations in relation to Atelier Alexander Sutulov participation.

First of all, an allegoric art commission which was made in reference to the 33 miners who heroically survived at San Jose Mine collapse. A commemorative artwork presented at the events inaugural ceremony in honor of the miners family representatives. Occasion which turned out twice as moving, considering that the addressed miners at the time, were weeks from been rescued.

Con respecto a la intervención lumínica, se utilizaron imágenes del mural “Historia de la Minería Chilena” emplazado en la Universidad de Concepción. Cabe destacar la efectividad que tuvo al momento de concebir una iconografía que independiente a su emplazamiento permanente, tiene la plasticidad de poder ser adaptada a instancias como la descrita. La dinámica que se desarrolla permite reflexionar, explorar sobre las relaciones y diálogos que se producen a partir de una obra matriz o imagen llave.

In relation to the events light show, images from the University of Concepcion Chilean Mining History Mural were utilized. Interesting to note that in spite of the mural’s permanent installation, its iconography lends itself to be adapted for the described scenery. The dynamics which developed from it, allowed a degree of reflection and exploration about the relations and dialogues which are originated from the mural’s matrix or key image.

Por ejemplo, la relación con un espacio arquitectónico que va desde el vano del edificio de Ingeniería Metalúrgica donde se encuentra emplazado el mural hasta su proyección sobre las ruinas de Huanchaca. En el caso de obras seriadas y de menor formato, las ediciones limitadas han tenido como destino final un público representativo portadores de una imagen testimonial ya que al tratarse de obras gráficas sobre papel; permite una relación más íntima y habitual en su significación.

For example, the architectural space relationships which go from the mural’s own installation interior space surrounding at the Metallurgical Engineering Building, all the way to its projection over Huanchaca Ruin’s architectural landscape. In the case of small format prints, a series of limited editions have had its final destiny with a representative public who are currently carriers of a testimonial iconography from the moment that works on paper represent a more intimate and habitual signification.

Plantearse hoy en día obras de arte que se accionan a partir de una multiplicidad, permite establecer un marco referencial que con el tiempo responderá a una mayor ecuanimidad frente un lenguaje pre-cognitivo asociado a la visualidad.

Alexander Sutulov

Bicentenario Chile Minero 2010

Santiago, Chile, septiembre 2010

To think nowadays of works of art which act upon from a perspective of multiplicity, allow establishing with time, a framework responding with greater equity regarding a precognitive language associated to visual phenomenon.
