Ambactia* Memoria is a group exhibition to be presented at SomoS Art House Berlin between March 2-13 2021. Applications are welcome that deconstruct the idea of Hispanicness and/or collectively imagine its transformation. Ambactia Memoria offers artists, critics, and activists an open framework to articulate non-normative artistic positions and peripheral perspectives regarding tradition, memory, and identities in relation to the Hispanic. Curated by Vanesa Peña Alarcón (ES), the exhibition takes as a starting point an institutional critique of the global stereotypical representation of the Hispanic by international diplomatic organizations and cultural institutes. In Peña’s view, this representation of the Hispanic or the concept of Hispanicness, is a form of patronization of people’s history, collective memory, and subjectivities, a one-sided perspective that doesn’t allow for a genuine inclusion of transculturalism. Applications (in English or Spanish) can be submitted through the website form below. Or alternatively, through ambactia@somos-arts.org, see forms below. (Please provide a detailed plan of the submitted contribution/s (maximum 2 pages), plus a portfolio and CV).
