Presentation<\/strong><\/h3>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_column_text]In each epoch there are voices coming from the future that demand urgent and necessary changes in the present. The voices that reach us today from the future seem to suffer from that almost mute hoarseness of someone who, for years, repeats the same thing to exhaustion. Despite the countless declinations and formulations, more or less prosaic and poetic, that message from the future comes in a question as simple as this: “if you already know what needs to be done, why don’t you do it?” And it is not the apparent aphonia that makes these voices inaudible, but the voluntary effort to minimize, ignore or postpone them. Camus, in The Myth of Sisyphus<\/em>, comes to a synthesis that seems to us linked to the root of this deafness “…practical consent and simulated ignorance, (…) makes us live with ideas that, if we actually felt them, should transform our whole lives.” This contradiction between ideas and practice is a fertile place of artistic questioning for what it reveals of the futility of the barriers between the desire for transformation and action or the difficulty of some communities in letting go of the “bone” of privilege, not only over other communities, but over nature itself.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Alongside the unpredictability of what is to come, the obsolescence of some of the tools of thought and action that characterize our society, the voices that announce it, the resistance to hear them, there is a future to be imagined and to which we are already contributing actively or passively. PACAP is one of these places of imagination and experimentation where the circumstances of the world are in dialogue with the specificities and subjectivities of each artist and, therefore, a special place for the debate of our contradictions. The work of each artist communicates more or less directly with the multiple temporalities that constitute reality, influencing and absorbing it, being part of it and sometimes distancing themselves to create parallel worlds that guarantee a critical perspective on what goes on around us. In the curious balance between the particular and the universal, we see how the approach to what is most singular and specific in each artist has the capacity, not infrequently, to affect more people than those who are part of their usual circle. And in these successive affections we contribute to the diversity of imaginaries about the body, identity and relationships.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The PACAP, as a provisional community, is also a place for the composition of relationships between each participant, for the articulation between the individual and the collective, for experimentation with other interaction dynamics that overlap with those of privilege and power, such as care, generosity, attention, collaboration.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The PACAP calls for intensity simply because it is a long-term community. This awareness of the end gives the added energy and urgency needed to spark unusual relationships and excesses that escape control but are indispensable to the imagination. We can use this energy of being together to provoke either a re-centering or a slight shift in our ways of thinking\/doing.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

For all this, we know that beyond the incredible group of artists we invite to be with us, what makes the PACAP experience unique is the constellation of participants that will integrate this Program. We would like, therefore, to invite 16 people with the desire and the pleasure of experimentation, to imagine with us multiple futures through projects whose starting points can be a simple quality of movement, an urgent and current concept, a banal idea, an intuition to name, an object out of place, or any other thing that provokes the necessary restlessness to create.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”40px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”grid” text_align=”left” background_animation=”none” css_animation=””][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
