Chapter V: HEAT
LagoAlgo, Mexico City
Février – Juillet 2024
LagoAlgo presents its fifth chapter of exhibitions, titled Heat, which focuses on combustion and its multiple meanings and implications – be it ecological, social or political. Investigating forces of nature beyond our control, this exhibition cycle focuses on man-made disasters, addressing the immediacy of climate change and the threat of nuclear explosions, and amplifying urgent messages and voices. Red-hot, urgent, as if about to combust, four separate exhibitions are brought together to create a burning Ring of Fire, drawing up an unexpected constellation of international artists reunited for the first time: French Swiss Julian Charrière, Russian-born American Ebecho Muslimova, Spanish Ana Montiel and Mexican Pedro Reyes.
Each exhibition within this chapter echoes one of the four main types of combustion: slow, rapid, spontaneous and explosive. From dizzying to contemplative, Julian Charrière’s exhibition addresses the pressing dangers of a rapid combustion due to climate change, by notably exploring the delirium of industrialization and its collusion with non-renewable resources. Ebecho Muslimova and her burlesque, signature female character Fatebe takes over the walls of LagoAlgo, exploding its architecture, with walls that can barely contain her presence, like a spontaneous female combustion. In a spirit of explosive protest and outrage, ’ project Artist Against the Bomb brings together hundreds of artist-designed posters, both historic and newly commissioned, which call for universal nuclear disarmament to generate imperative, urgent change and achieve peace. Meanwhile, Ana Montiel's vibrant masses perform a kind of synesthesia, painting with air the factors we often overlook—the things we don't consider. In the manner of a slow combustion, emanating like flameless heat, she reconciles the liminal and the tangible, the eternal and ephemeral, the monumental and the microscopic, the natural and the cultural.
