As an independent foundation their goal is to develop artistic exchange and support artists in their creative practice. Their mean for that is to host residencies, organize partnership and present exhibitions to the public.
What I find is really interesting with their work is that they support under-represented practices and practitioners. So they provide a platform to the underdogs, to professionals who are in need of a better representation of their work. If you go there, there’s a strong chance you will see things you probably won’t have seen elsewhere.
For instance I their exhibition Asunción Molinos Gordo: Accumulation by Dispossession which is tackling the inequalities in the global food system.
Such an interesting, spot-on subject, on which we need more attention drawn. Through it I learned terms I had no idea of before, such as economic Dumpling. I was frightned by my own ignorance on the matter and realised how little there is educational resource and how much we lack in information on this in the media.
One word: eye-opening.
