METAL ON METAL ON WIND

PEPE MOGT & TANIA CANDIANI

KIOSCO SONORO ACTIVATION

As part of Arte Abierto’s Public Program and in collaboration with MUAC (Museo Universitario de Arte Contemporáneo), METAL ON METAL ON WIND, will take place, an outdoor sound intervention by Pepe Mogt to activate the sculpture Kiosko sonoro (2018) by Tania Candiani. This art piece is part of the Arte Abierto Collection and is comprised of a series of interconnected trumpets, which refers to the traditional kiosks in public squares. Its shape reflects on the social and cultural dynamics behind these constructions and how we appropriate them in our daily lives.

Tania Candiani (Mexico City, 1974)
She lives and works in Mexico City. One of the central interests of her work is the expanded idea of translation, extended to the experimental field through the use of visual, sound, textual and symbolic languages. Many of her projects consider the universe of sound and the politics of listening as a tool capable of expanding and transforming perceptions, both human and non-human. A fundamental part of her work is related to feminist policies and practices, understanding them as a communal, affective and ritual experience. Its production usually involves interdisciplinary work groups in various fields, consolidating intersections between art, literature, music, architecture, science, and labor, with an emphasis on ancestral knowledge and techniques, technologies, and their history in the production of knowledge. She is a member of the National System of Art Creators of Mexico; she is a recipient of the Guggenheim Fellowship in the Arts, the Smithsonian Institution Research Grant for Artists; she is an artist-in-residence at the Arts at CERN program, in Geneva, Switzerland. In 2015 she represented Mexico at the 56th Venice Biennale. Her work has been exhibited internationally in museums, institutions and independent spaces, and is part of important public and private collections.
