Projecções de André Sousa, Miguel Leal e Francisco Queimadela & Mariana Caló

“Este Cinema 2 – Drive in leva-nos assim para um dos sítios onde as máquinas se sentem bem, e onde as máquinas do cinema encontram a cinemática dos motores. No piso subterrâneo da garagem iremos ouvir os motores em desaparecimento dos automóveis e iremos evocar os motores em devir do cinema…

…Down, down in the basement we hear the sound of machines
And I, I’m driving in circles

Come to my senses sometimes…
[Talking Heads, 1983)”

Preview : 22nd of June
Open: 23rd of June until the 4th of August

“Rowing Projects is pleased to present Chart for the Coming Times, a solo exhibition developed by the Portuguese artists duo Mariana Caló & Francisco Queimadela. This video installation is a new chapter of the artists open-ended project entitled “Gradations of Time Over a Plane”. Composed of a black and white video, a hand-painted book and a pile of 1,000 printouts-this work is centered on the idea of communication in time by combining the notions of intentional and unintentional time capsules, in relation to the particularities of a specific location, the chalk cliffs of the area of Cuckemere Haven and Seven Sisters (East Sussex, UK).”

GRADATIONS OF TIME OVER PLANE

gradacoes_derivas-6

Exhibition at Gasworks – 27th, 28th, 29th of April 2012

Current artists in residence Mariana Caló and Francisco Queimadela present several chapters from their ongoing project Gradations of Time Over a Plane. The installation includes a new chapter entitled Drifts and Derivations, developed during the artists’ residency at Gasworks.

Working with film, photography, illustration and sculpture, the artist duo has been developing Gradations of Time over a Plane since March 2010. Made up of non-sequential chapters, each of them independent but brought together through the installation, the work explores different notions of time in relation to Man and the Land. Forming relationships with and then filming in various locations in the north of Portugal, UK, the Netherlands and Germany, the artists seek to capture what they see as the temporal essence of different landscapes. This field work is accompanied by extensive research into and deconstruction of various popular, scientific and artistic perspectives on the relationship between Man and the passing of time. The resulting works take the form of immersive installations that offer personal perspectives whilst seeking to involve the viewer as a free interpreter of the visual experience.

The new chapter will be presented alongside a previously composed sequence of video chapters, with a connecting soundtrack drawing together both parts of the temporary installation. The resulting dialogue between new and existing work makes visible an expansion of ideas of the first sequence in the new chapter, but can also be seen as a parallel discourse, in which the new work presents a modification of the original ideas.

Born respectively in Viana do Castelo and Coimbra, Portugal, Mariana Caló & Francisco Queimadela currently live and work in Berlin.
Their residency is supported by The Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation.

This event is part of SLAM Last Fridays.

SPRINGS OF THE FLOOD

springs01

 

Exhibition at Matador Projekt Raum
25-11 to 17-12 de 2011  – Altes Finanzamt (Berlin)

For this exhibition at Matador Projekt Raum we are presenting the first draft of a new chapter from our ongoing work entitled “Gradations of Time Over a Plane”.
This project focuses on the reflection and interpretation of the notion of Time, both as a symbolic dimension of reality and also as an abstract concept that relates to something which is non-material and that ‘precedes materiality’. It is being constituted in chapters, reflections and articulations from the experience given by the field work (developed in different geographical contexts), combined with the interpretation and research of various perspectives on the relation between Man and the passing of time.

With “Springs of the Flood” we want to devise a video installation that mirrors the problematization of the present waves of questioning and reformulation, that are taking place in several places around the world, establishing a relation between two main axis of reflection: The myth of the Deluge and the unfolding of reality.

The exhibition can be visited during the regular events at Altes Finanzamt
