We invite you, Friday, November 1, 2024, from 4:00 p.m., to the opening of the exhibition Limbo Schengen, by the Spanish artist Alonso Calero (ChatoZero), curated by Oana Maria Nae, at CIAC Baia Turceasca (1st floor) in Iasi.\nIn this exhibition project, the artist Alonso-Calero (ChatoZero) proposes a series of installations and artistic artifacts through a speculative approach to the utopia of a desirable future (Voros, 2001), in which borders are no longer political and economic elements, but are conceived as organic devices, articulated in a flexible, permeable or floating form. Borders, particularly perceived as solid, resilient elements, act here as flexible structures that adapt to populations, communities and climate (Dunne & Raby, 2013), to avoid being the focus of human conflicts in politics and supporting violence against nature.
\nThe memory of the border makes it resilient. But the boundary of the territory is permeable to human transit, and therefore this is its natural state. The artist uses and highlights here the concept of Limes. Limes is a term that comes from the Latin language. In Roman times, this term defined borders. Limes, from which the term “Limbo” derives, is also the philosophical and conceptual term used by Eugenio Tr\u00edas.
