SPEAK OUT demonstrates the persistent visions of cultural fortitude, resistance, and insurrection that make up our community in the Bronx and the greater New York City. In a borough with a rich history of resistance and community organizing, we are honored to produce this exhibition at BronxArtSpace at the start of a new year in the post-no indictment era, contemplating a justice system in the United States that is clearly unjust.

A

Artworks and performances address legacies of injustice, offer alternatives to institutional racism, and present empowering and honest images of the self, body, community, and reality that affirm that #BlackLivesMatter.

Performance Thursday, October 22, 6:30–7:30 p.m.

A

New York, NY – October 17, 2015. Robert Miller Gallery is pleased to present a new performance work by Carlos Martiel in conjunction with Nuevos Colores, a group exhibition of new art from Cuba.

A

In Legado (legacy), Martiel buries himself between two clay pots filled with coffee grounds from Jamaica and Haiti respectively, countries from which his grandparents imigrated to Cuba in the mid-1920s. As an extension of this personal history, the work ruminates on the flow of economic migrants created by colonialism, their legacy in the Caribbean, and human and environmental exploitation by Western powers. The resulting conditions have irrevocably marked the identity of groups inhabiting these countries and their economies.

A

Martiel’s performance will draw out this autobiographical experience to discuss the Caribbean diaspora as a social phenomenon, which is in part produced by exploitation of the land’s wealth. Along with the introduction of goods such as coffee, cotton, and sugar cane in the Caribbean came new forms of social relations, particularly slavery. The coffee that will fill the two clay pots in which Martiel will bury himself have been imported to the U.S. from Jamaica and Haiti to represent and investigate this phenomenon and the artist’s own Cuban identity.

A

Carlos Martiel es un grito que se ha apoderado de otros gritos. Ahora reside en New York y sus performances dan cuenta del lanzamiento de su cuerpo hacia la violencia extra verbal, silenciosa a veces.

A

Este joven artista habanero, nacido en 1989 y Graduado de la Academia Nacional de Bellas Artes “San Alejandro”, ha dejado pedazos de su piel –literalmente- en lugares en que ha expuesto sobre la inmigración ilegal, los abusos del poder o el mito que ronda hoy por las apariencias humanas.

A

Hace solo una semana realizó Legado: se enterró -en una galería neoyorquina-, en dos grandes vasijas llenas de café importado de Haití y Jamaica, países de donde sus abuelos emigraron a Cuba en la década de 1920.

‘PERFORMANCE’ PARA LOS DESAPARECIDOS
El Diario NTR

A

Por Miriam Pulido

A

A partir de la investigación de Carlos Martiel sobre la desaparición forzada en México, especialmente en Guadalajara, el artista conceptual originario de Cuba pero radicado en Nueva York realizará una performance que será la tercera entrega del proyecto Pensar la praxis, plástica latinoamericana y ejercicios neo-revolucionarios, que organiza el colectivo Sector Reforma.

A

Martiel, quién por primera vez visita el país, pero cuya obra ya se ha mostrado anteriormente, creará “un monumento vivo, con mi cuerpo que signifique la vida de miles de personas que han perdido su vida por monstruosidad y la violencia”, comentó el artista

A

Over the last century, technologies, economies, societies, and political systems have been transformed, constituting a revised yet always shifting cultural landscape. In order to keep up, we constantly search for new feeling by way of the next lifestyle app, the next detox, the next transformative spirit journey to calm the nerves. Low-Grade Euphoria highlights the work of artists who respond to these shifts in the cultural landscape and suggest sensory experiences to guide us through them. It is a simultaneously frantic and subdued search for the traces of joy that enable and perpetuate social life today. With the help of performances, video, sound, and installation works, the exhibition rushes forward, toward new feelings and temporary joys, happily, in a daze.

A

Curated by: Sanna Almajedi, Valerie Amend, Patrick Jaojoco, Rebecca Nahom, Ikechukwu Onyewuenyi, Vera Petukhova, Jovanna Venegas, under the leadership of Mark Beasley.

ARTIST FEATURE & INTERVIEW WITH CARLOS MARTIEL

A

by Performance is Alive

A

A

This year performance art pervaded Miami Art Week 2015 (for better and for worse). Most notably at the non-traditional, multi-destination, Satellite Fair organized by Brian Wheatley and the curatorial project “Time Sensitive” curated by Jesús Fuenmayor at Pinta Miami. As you can imagine, the sheer density of events, shows and performances prohibited us (Alexandra Hammond + myself) from being able to view the full performance roster at either fair but we were determined to catch Carlos Martiel’s durational work at Pinta Miami. Martiel caught my attention last October for his durational performance, “Segregation” at Samson Projects (Boston) where he stood motionless between two layers of barbed wire. Upon entry, audience members were separated by country of origin and viewed the performance from opposing sides. Martiel notes on his website, “One of the entryways permitted the entrance of U.S. born whites and Europeans. The other, permitted the entrance of blacks, latinos, asians, and middle easterners, as well as any individual who was not European or U.S. born white. People were not allowed to mix for the duration.”
