Bench

August 18, 2022 in Frankfurt Germany "Bench" peaked.

The fourth edition of Andrés Gorzycki’s curated open-air-shows near the Main river. Andrés and I conversed about the space in between. That space which calls to be occupied and where the artists decide to inhabit. In the place filled, I saw a bridge between objects, time, and people. For this edition, the space was intervened with references to the previous three editions of this curatorial project, including Sebastián Garbrecht's Magnet, Alina Perkins's Rope and Maximiliano Siñani’s Stone. I wheat-pasted an image of the stone bench’s top onto the sign that blocks the serene landscape of the river. Where we sit is a portal. The portal is reframed again and again.

We met at the end of a peninsula in the Gutleutviertel neighborhood of Frankfurt am Main. Some ducks joined the show.
