The Eternal Network
From September 11th to September 21st
Supported by La Memoria Artística Chema Alvargonzalez in Barcelona
In this exhibition, we invoke Robert Filliou, embracing the art of play, and exchange in the creative process, just as we encourage these attitudes in the Online Program every day. This show celebrates the global community of artists supported through GlogauAIR’s virtual residency since 2020. It is a portrait of an international program, materialized here in a group show, to listen to different voices and approach complementary methodologies with artworks of former residents.
The Fluxus artist Robert Filliou asserted that every artist was interconnected and capable of working together through telepathy, as seen in his installation ‘Musique Télépathique N°5’ from around 1976. Today, tools like Zoom or shared mind maps seem to serve as channels for this interconnection, making that ‘telepathy’ visible through continuous interaction that promotes creation, critical thinking, and the enrichment of multidisciplinary art practices. Filliou’s concept of Permanent Creation deeply influenced GlogauAIR’s founder Chema Alvargonzález, shaping not only his artistic practice but also the founding of La Escuelita – as GlogauAIR is known among Chema’s family and friends.
This group show includes works by Michalina W. Klasik (Poland), Hyunseo Cho (South Korea), Ellen-Rose Wallace (Ireland), Daniela Stubbs-Levi (Peru), and a collaborative painting initiated by Aitor Lajarín Encina (Spain) continued by Carlos Asensio, Sofia Bevione, Savanna Fortgang, Sergei Kurek, Elizabeth Littlejohn, Laura Olea Lopez, Julia Rigby, and Mason Weiss. The exhibition also features a rare conceptual wall piece by Alvargonzalez, which reminds us of the extensive reach of the network he established in 2006 and which continues to inspire alongside the Online Program.
