ARCO'11
MADRID: 02/16/1911 to 02/20/1911
First of all, before we talk about what has been seen - being able to see, in this edition of ARCO, said that as far as I'm concerned, I share the above point by point by Rosa Olivares in the text accompanying the latest edition of EXIT. Nor is why stopping the world, nor has it put the outcry, nor has either of rant from year to year in this fair, counting counting, is now in its thirteenth edition .
Perhaps this passion for all post-traumatic ARCO, comes from everyone asks ARCO to solve the problems of English art by magic and that each year, these five days leave a glimpse of a future of colors among so dense darkness. But then, as he said, which can not be can not be and, moreover, is impossible. English art is endemic problems at all come to be solved in just five days.
That which I think is quite right to view the event in red-inescapable and inexcusable-ARC, but this has nothing to take the show as the balm that comes each year stopgap appose a wound that opens every day a little more, nor see it as the unique cuasante our bloody situation.
Even issues like the tax to the investor stubborn pursuit of art or the complete failure that has been raised as a link between Latin America and Europe could be screened if everyone tried to get out of this show something positive and not be held to impossible to something that must be understood simply as a stop on the country's cultural agenda.

said, if we deal with here art criticism, we will not get into eleven staff shirt and start measuring the viability of the project started by the new policy, or to see ghosts or failure, is not the case, to greet a new era with the sound of fanfare .
In principle, in short, two considerations: the definitive success in leaving the thing in two pavilions, and nearly flat-encephalogram eminently artistic terms, to an issue that few galleries conjecture and would throw the house through the window. Medium-sized photograph (plenty composition and polyptych), painting and sculpture also comes to mean median over 80% of the works for an issue that seems have forgotten the video, installation, sound art or performative and have left for better times.
The collection of works grand, festive, with a touch of showmanship and head of television news this time could be counted on the fingers of one hand. The eternal figures Enrique Marty, the melancholy clowns Folkert de Jong, Barthelemy skeleton or skeletons Toguo dancers from Javier Perez , joined Kimberly Clark and drunk girls hyperreal sculptures and grip-Lecca Ximen with gloomy scenarios cemetery. Carlos Aires with a crucified Christ with the sign 'lets get lost' and chained Giacometti Elmgreen & Dragset put the nail in the aesthetics of transbanal.
That said, what really takes the cake in this issue, and I think it at all since it has been established as the preferred consumable object, is the landscape or architectural photography. The absolute master Axel Hutte Share this bill with Julian Rusefeldt (photo-video), Rafael G. Bianchi, Caio Reisewitz , T iina Itkonen or Sandra Kantana (These last two Nordic artists who share the same look). On the other side, Juan Manuel Ballesteros is present in several galleries, representing the aseptic formalism, while Andrew Moore Jorn and put the note Vanhofen catastrophic. Iñaki
Gracenea , Iñaki Bonillas and Guillermo Rubi seem share common aesthetic principles to influence the panopticon-serial version of the technical reproduction, with a more poppy in Katharina Sieverding. Others would emphasize the poetic-distant Gonzalo Lebrija of the faces of clowns Robert Volt, the gift overlay Thomas Lochner, the daily routine of fantsmal Catarina Botelho, the always blunt Slater Bradley, seduction of Jurgen hiperestetizada Klauke or retropop of David Lachapelle. Finally, highlight Thomas Ruff, who combines the squalor of a slaughterhouse with the indiscretion scopic view of the see-no pornographic scenes.

Video, as we say, not much. But you can highlight Sara Ramo , Avelino Sala , Dora García with his last work before Venice and Annika Larssen. Several notches below you can see Carlos Reynalda and beauty, banality of a football game, Rubens Mano recording a city from the air (a bit on the aesthetics of Colomer ) and the trick of Artemio Russell making Crown fight anyone in a ' Gladiator' special.
Among the sculptural-installation and there is much good to point out, though he falls on the hands increased risk in the proposals: archivendidos and Tony Cragg and Erwin Wurm , Chinese Xooang Choi and Hwan-Kwon Yi (this with fuzzy figures was the main attraction last year), Madelaine Berkhemer and perverse pop, Allen Jones with a work that will be of preferred in the next few days (we promise), Bene Bergado traumatic and reptile skeleton under the rug, are perhaps the most attention.

But there's more: Matthew Darbyshire is always interesting with their double-objects, the motorcar of Benjamin Bergmann, Peter Pogiers , Lawrence Carroll , Olaf Holzapfel and Jurgen Drescher stand out as the closest thing to the sculptural, minimalist bronze figures Tim Eitel, art light Bruno Peinado or carport light Philippe Parreno ; Klaus Fritze and penny lane particular; Adeline Looper and dorian gray; Olabarria Ruth and a head-sources between innocence and evil.
Although perhaps most notable, perhaps above all by the glow of newness and fresh air they bring out the incubator fits Beth Moyses, buckets with water vapor of Liam Gillick, Music umbrella Bernhard Leitner, the 'white look' of Angel Marcos, the windows sealed with sheets and Albert Corbí bands.
The works can be seen from established artists in this edition of ARCO are medium, none of giants (or quality, let alone in the quantity and dimensions of the work). Gunter Forg perhaps the most repeated, but they're not bad three Neo Rauch, a pair of Konellis and spare parts for Julian Schnabel, Tony Oursler , Matthew Barney , Atelier van Lieshout , Boltanski (beat it), Ana Mendieta , Arnulf Rainer , Balka Richten or within the most remarkable. Among the English
there, how could it be otherwise, well and good. Has noted the extensive presence of No Santiago Sierra (it appears that 'no' given for more than to give that speech) as well as Ignasi Aballí , present in at least three galleries. Among the common presences and may appoint Jaume Plensa, Daniel Canogar , García-Alix , Susana Solano or Jordi Colomer. Also work has been seen this year in their respective galleries that seem interesting and have come Ana Laura Alaez , Manu Arregui, Jordi Alcaraz , Aitor Ortiz, Jacobo Castilian, Pablo Valbuena , Karmelo Bermejo, Eulalia Valldosera, Amaya González Reyes and Alicia Framis. however, highlighting three names that have come with a work as wide as blunt: Juan Ugalde, Juan del Junco and Sergio Prego.
Finally, to mention also, for better or for worse, the dolls Baltazar Torres, the delicacy of Liliana Porter, the houses Carlos Bunga to and Jonathan Hernandez Baldesari nice neighborhood with at David Maljkovic with a simple little work left its mark, the rotund master Eric Baudelaire and Angela Bullboch, strategies and disabled by Sanja Ivekovic or David G. Andujar, how tired and Susy Gómez and Jose Maria Sicilia , and unproductive of Graciet Manuela revolutionary Ribadeneira sordida and stupidity of the 'fuck you all' of Javier Calleja.

1 - Marlon de Azambuja : aftershocks of contemporary art museums turned into bird cages are in the target which is the strength poetic art.
2 - Alfredo Jaar : converted in figure essential to the intended destination can be called a political art, art affects the strategies that govern the policy of the images. And was the best last year in Oliva Arauna and ARCO their works stand out for their non-negotiable forcefulness.
3 - Nicolas Provost : Your video 'Stardust' tells emphasizing the links between reality dy fiction. Las Vegas as a testing ground of subjectivity, our own, fueled by the spectacle of roller coaster.
4 - Fran Meana : despite his youth, the works can be viewed at attest to Nogueras innate ability to turn our gaze there know where something has to re-narrated.
5 - Joana Vasconcelos: handmade as a way of giving voice to the ever silent. Amazing.
6 - Dora Garcia: present in several galleries, its force and versatility make it unquestionably an artist of international caliber.
7 - Sergio Prego : also present in a couple of galleries, his work here stands out above the rest. Video, photography, installation technology: the body as a concern and space and intricate choreography link.
8 - Hans Peter Feldmann: a gallery for him, the Mehdi Chouakri, shows that his is great art.
9 - Albert Corbí: s us windows through which you see nothing, perhaps a metaphor-our-eyes has to be cured.
10 - Marina Abramovic : For a show that has chosen to cut budget by withdrawing into an art partly quite pointless, Marina images stand out if you want more than ever. Art is passion and drama, suffering and encouragement.
