This exhibition catalog embodies the spirit of “A Bridge to Stay On,” a site-specific project specifically designed for Sala Alcalá 31. In this exhibition, visual artist Guillermo Mora (born in Alcalá de Henares in 1980) continues his investigation into the traditional boundaries of painting, like two-dimensionality, frontality, and representation. Through his work, Mora addresses issues that extend beyond the pictorial and suggest alternative forms of existence, encapsulating the idea of “Painting as Resistance.”
The catalog serves as an object that reflects the spatial intervention achieved through the color studies employed by the artist. It challenges established hierarchies and orders, leading to new ways of navigating, perceiving, and experiencing both space and painting.
The catalog features photographs by Luis Asín, a text by Pia Ogea—the curator of the exhibition—and a conversation between Carlos Fernández-Pello and Guillermo Mora.
