kurimanzutto | 画廊纽约新空间今日开幕！首展“TODOS JUNTOS（一起）”

Kurimanzutto 很荣幸地宣布，画廊在西 20 街 520 号的全新空间即将于11月11号迎来首场展览“TODOS JUNTOS（一起）”。展览包括 39 位艺术家的作品。就像画廊历史上的许多重要决定一样，本次展览和画廊空间本身，都是从与艺术家的一系列对话中产生的。它回应了画廊于90年代末诞生的源头，它是由艺术家加布里埃尔·奥罗斯科（Gabriel Orozco）与 莫妮卡·曼兹托（Mónica Manzutto）和何塞·库里（José Kuri）共同构想的。画廊于纽约切尔西的新空间与安德里亚·维拉·罗杰斯（Adrián Villar Rojas）共同建立，其布局和展览空间的许多细节则由奥罗斯科和里克力·提拉瓦尼加（Rikrit Tiravinija）操刀。艺术家的设计元素遍布整个空间：Dr. Lakra设计的墙砖，傅丹（Danh Vo）作品中的织物，以及由加布里埃尔·塞拉（Gabriel Sierra）设计的接待区。

达米安·奥提加（Damián Ortega）为本次展览的构思做出了巨大贡献。奥提加与莱昂诺尔·安图内斯（Leonor Antunes）、塔里克·阿图伊（Tarek Atoui）、奈瑞‧ 巴格勒米安（Nairy Baghramian）和 梁慧圭（Haegue Yang）等画廊艺术家提议，希望这场展览能够从视觉上讲述关于kurimanzutto以及它的社群的故事。本次展览借用了2014年提拉瓦尼加在画廊墨西哥城首次个展中一件作品的标题。本展中，提拉瓦尼加将呈现同一作品的全新版本，它是一份出版于2022年7月12日—也就是詹姆斯·韦伯太空望远镜的发布日—的彩绘报纸。对提拉瓦尼加而言，这份报纸中图像的维度和广度具有深刻的包容性。

展览附有一份以新闻用纸印刷的小型出版物，供观众随意领阅。它讲述了 Kurimazutto 的历史，从 1999 年在麦德林市场的第一次展览“市场经济”，经过九年的游牧，于2008年在墨西哥城创立永久空间，直到今日在纽约开设全新空间。本次展览将呈现奥罗斯科和奥提加曾经在1999年“市场经济”展览中展出的雕塑作品。奥罗斯科的《Mixiote》是一件由在当时展览所在市场拾来的材料制作的软雕塑，而奥提加的《变形者》则是由塑料机器人玩具和由螃蟹壳、生姜等有机材料组成的混合体。密涅瓦·奎瓦斯（Minerva Cuevas）将呈现一辆碰碰车，车上印有英国石油公司的标志，该标志也出现在了她2002年在DODGEM游乐园举办的展览中。奎瓦斯将于明年初举办纽约新空间的第一场个展。

展览还将包括来自安图内斯、阿图伊、佩特里特·哈里拉伊（Petrit Halilaj）、索菲亚·塔博厄斯（Sofía Táboas）的新作，以及梁慧圭创作的一件场域特定作品，来自她的“声音窗帘”系列。此外，展览中还有维尔弗雷多·普雷托和奥罗斯科合作创作的一件声音作品《哈瓦那症候》，以及亚伯拉罕·克鲁兹威力戈斯的全新自画像。克鲁兹威力戈斯（他将于2023年5月举办个展）还将画廊有史以来所有的邀请印刷物进行排列，并涂以黑色颜料。这件作品有一个十分温暖的标题：

盲人回顾性自画像经历二十三个不同的故事，抹去它们，然后在上面重新重写，同时阅读一些曾经写过的最好的台词，听我这辈子最爱的歌，吃我最爱的菜，从麦德林市场到纽约继续美丽的冒险，和我最亲爱的朋友一起享受生活，喝起泡酒和叫人惹麻烦又灵感连篇的烈酒，这是无条件的爱的承诺……

空间将设有一个放映室，呈现来自克鲁兹威力戈斯（Fernando Ortega）、安利·萨拉（Anri Sala）、阿比查邦·魏拉希沙可（Apichatpong Weerasethakul）和阿肯˙札塔力（Akram Zaatari）的电影。丹尼尔·古兹曼（Daniel Guzmán）和亚历山德拉·巴赫泽提斯（Alexandra Bachzetsis）的录像作品则会呈现于展览中。罗曼·昂达克（Roman Ondak）将于展览开幕当晚以及每周六带来行为《一位流浪汉》。

New York, NY (October 25, 2022).– kurimanzutto is pleased to announce the opening of TODOS JUNTOS (All Together), the gallery’s first exhibition at 520 West 20th Street. The inaugural exhibition includes work by 39. Like so many important decisions in the gallery’s history, the exhibition, and the space itself, emerged from a series of conversations with its artists. kurimanzutto’s origins lie in such exchanges; it was Gabriel Orozco who first conceived the gallery with Mónica Manzutto and José Kuri in the late 1990s. The new Chelsea location was found together with Adrián Villar Rojas and many details of its layout and exhibition spaces are the direct result of input from Orozco and Rikrit Tiravinija. Design elements by the artists can be found throughout the space: tiles by Dr. Lakra, textiles found in the work of Danh Vo, and a reception area designed by Gabriel Sierra. 

Damián Ortega greatly contributed to the inception of TODOS JUNTOS (All Together). Ortega, along with Leonor Antunes, Tarek Atoui, Nairy Baghramian, and Haegue Yang, to name only a few, imagined an exhibition that could tell a visual story of kurimanzutto and its community. The title is borrowed from a 2014 work by Tiravanija of the same name that was first shown at the gallery in Mexico City. Creating a new iteration for the show, Tiravanija presents a painted newspaper from July 12, 2022, when the most detailed photographs of the universe, taken by the James Webb telescope, were released. For Tiravanija, the scale and expanse of these images are ultimately profoundly inclusive.

The exhibition is accompanied by a small takeaway publication on newsprint that tells the history of kurimanzutto, from its first exhibition in 1999 at the Medellín market, Economía de Mercado, through nine years of nomadic projects, to its permanent space in Mexico City, and finally the opening of the new location on 20th Street. Included in this exhibition from that first show in the market are sculptures by Orozco and Ortega. Orozco’s Mixiote, a soft sculpture made with materials coming from the market itself and Ortega’s Transformers, a hybrid of plastic robot toys and organic materials such as crab shells or ginger. Minerva Cuevas, who will have the gallery’s first solo exhibition early next year, presents a bumper car that she imprinted with the logo of British Petroleum for her 2002 exhibition at an amusement park titled DODGEM.

The show also features new works by Antunes, Atoui, Petrit Halilaj, Sofía Táboas, a site-specific piece from Haegue Yang’s Sonic Curtain series; Havana Syndrome, a collaborative sound work by Wilfredo Prieto and Orozco, and a new Blind Self-Portrait by Abraham Cruzvillegas. Cruzvillegas, who will open a solo exhibition at the gallery in May 2023, created an arrangement of every printed invitation from the history of the gallery and covered them in black paint. It is warmly entitled: 

Blind retrospective self-portrait experiencing twenty three different stories, to erase them, and to re-write again more atop, while reading some of the best lines ever written, listening to the soundtrack of my life, eating all my favorite meals, walking from Medellín market to a new beautiful adventure in New York, enjoying life with my dearest friends ever, drinking bubbly and trouble making inspiring spirits, with you, as a promise of unconditional love...

A screening room will showcase films by Fernando Ortega, Anri Sala, Apichatpong Weerasethakul, and Akram Zaatari, and video works by Daniel Guzmán and Alexandra Bachzetsis will be installed in the exhibit. Additionally, Roman Ondak’s performance A Stray Man will take place at the opening and on Saturdays.
