In this spring's big exhibition at Färgfabriken, the dark side of extraction is exposed. Here the compass is pointed south towards Latin America, a land mass rich in desirable natural resources at a time when fossil fuels are to be phased out.
Naomi Rincón-Gallardo
Based on themes such as water, oil and lithium, Latin American artists depict the consequences for people, animals and landscapes of the ongoing exploitation of natural resources in countries such as Chile, Argentina, Venezuela and Mexico. A picture emerges of giant lithium beds, polluted rivers, privatized water sources and an indigenous population that must constantly give way to the inexhaustible material needs of the outside world.
El Sur gives the audience the opportunity to meet outstanding artists, most of which have not previously been shown in Sweden. The expressions vary and include video, installation, photography, sound works and performance. Participating artists are Seba Calfuqueo (Chile), Ana Alenso (Venezuela), Alejandra Prieto (Chile), Naomi Rincón-Gallardo (Mexico), Iconoclasistas (Julia Risler and Pablo Ares, Argentina), Marcela Magno (Argentina) and Maxi Mamani (Bartolina Xixa, Argentina).
