Mud Ball 3 tons of soil, helping materials, 15 artists or non artists, 2 months of work in progress, 1 month of exhibition. 200 x 200 cm CCEBA, Buenos Aires, Argentina 2007
Rosa Chancho is invited as a aguest curatorial collective
to make a two months long work in progress project at the Spanish Center For
the Arts in Buenos Aires (CCEBA). The group built a Mud Ball 2 meters in diameter, as the
first intervention of the space and then invited five artists to work around
it, with only two materials: soil and water. These artists could decide to work in group or alone. On
completion, the First Group invited a second Group of artists, who, in their
turn, would invite a third one.
The process ended with The Dark
Squad, an anonymous group chosen by Rosa Chancho, whose mission was to achieve
visual, conceptual or uncomplete completion.
Group 1:
Rafael Cippolini, Juliana Iriart, Deborah Pruden, Axel
Straschnoy, Benito Laren/Gustavo Ríos.
