Marta von Poroszlay, Sra. Vienesa 2010
The exhibition provides an insight into the contemporary art of the Canary Islands. Five artists from the Canary Islands introduce themselves. Five artists who convey their very own perspectives, views and insights into the island’s existence, but who, despite their diversity, also have similarities and connecting elements. Life experiences and paths that cross and become alienated again, parallels in development, but which drift apart again due to certain influences.
Dácil Granados, Serial IN-OUT 2017, Collage 02
They are women artists of different ages, but their origins and descents, as well as their living and working environments, represent practically a cross-section of the contemporary art and cultural scene and the social reality of the Canary Islands. The thematic basis of the exhibition is the concept and understanding of ISLAND and ISLAND EXISTENCE, but not only from a purely geographical point of view or perspective.
