URVANITY MAHOU TALKS 4
2019
Vuelven los Urvanity Mahou Talks con la vocación de generar discusión entorno al Nuevo Arte Contemporáneo y el espacio público. A día de hoy, el arte urbano se encuentra en una fase de innegable madurez, un movimiento cada vez más extenso en el tiempo, más relevante en la audiencia, más prolífico en la técnica y sobretodo más ramificado y complejo. La capacidad evolutiva de los distintos movimientos, los viejos y los nuevos, se manifiesta de forma fractal e imparable. La inevitable irrupción de la revolución digital, así como el enorme peso que está adquiriendo el storytelling y la documentación audiovisual en los proyectos (que además lo sitúan en un contexto de feroz crisis climática), hacen que cada vez sea más difícil mantener una mirada meramente unidireccional y ciertamente limitada.

5pm-6pm – THE NEW CHALLENGES OF THE SECTOR// B-Murals, Furiosa Gallery & La Causa Galeria
The gallery of the 21st Century possesses new challenges and has new goals. To give visibility to new languages, to empower new discourses and to legitimize the artistic work above all, to promote and boost these new proposals within the Art market. These three independent gallery owners will give us first-hand information about their experiences, their aims and their way of approaching the projects.
6pm-7pm – THERE IS NO ART WITHOUT RISK // Abel Iglesias, Ana Barriga and GVIIIE, artists
They say Art, to be considered as such, must move. Others say it must disturb and then there are those who simply applaud its eternal search for beauty. But beyond its emotional, agitating or complacent capacity, there is one aspect that is very little remarked: its expeditiousness. Being expeditious and taking chances, sometimes literally, is an increasingly important trait for gaining relevance, notoriety and attention. In this meeting between daring artists we will throw questions into the air with the aim of discovering what is behind the work of those who constantly challenge their fears.
7pm-8pm – CLIMATIC DUALISM // Sixe Paredes & Grip Face, artists
Today, where contradictions of modern life clash with the welfare society, Art, once again, conforms itself as a tool of protest, along with other cultural manifestations, to create a movement of collective consciousness that makes noise in the face of the problem of climate change. Artists propose solutions for sustainable art in the presence of plastic oceans, air pollution or tons of waste. A dialogue between two artists who contribute with their grain of sand to the struggle.
