Descripción de la Formación

TEOR/éTica and the Museum of Contemporary Art and Design (MADC) present the second edition of the regional seminar Temas Centrales (Central Subjects) - TC2. Artists, curators, critics and art theoreticians will analyze the current situation of discursive and artistic production in Central America and the Caribbean. TC2 revolves around the complex scenario of the first decade of the 21st century, questioning the concept of region.

The seminar will include: a dialogue amongst independent spaces and platforms that propose new institutional models, with presentations by Michy Marxuach (Beta-Local, Puerto Rico), Stefan Benchoam (Proyectos Ultravioleta, Guatemala), Oscar Muñoz (Lugar a Dudas, Colombia), and Pablo José Ramírez (Ciudad de la Imaginación Foundation, Guatemala), moderated by Fiorella Resenterra (Director, MADC, Costa Rica); a discussion between a number of international curators of 'tropical biennials' in the region that have changed the standing paradigm of the 'biennial model', with presentations by Magali Arriola (8 Bienal de Panama, ...

TC2 comprises two exhibitions that will be held at the MADC from 26 April 2012 to 26 May 2012.

Esa Vara. Modernity and emplacement, curated by Tamara Díaz Bringas (Cuba/Spain), is a reading through the collection of Virginia Pérez-Ratton (Founding director of TEOR/éTica). This exhibition includes works by 40 artist from the collection as well as artists' interventions by San José based artists Errol Barrantes, Sila Chanto, Paz Fábrega, Oscar Figueroa and Edgar León and a series of texts by authors from several fields of work that function as interpellations of the works, the exhibition and the collection itself.
