Artist: Iván Naranjo Authors: Jorge David García Editors: muac-unam Editorial Coordinator: Ekaterina Alvarez Romero Language: Spanish and English First edition, 2014 Extension: 32 pages Format: 8.66 in x 6.3 in MSRP: $5.95 USD ISBN: 978-607-02-5980-7 Target: University community, academics and interested public in contemporary art. “A Throw of the Dice Will Never Abolish Chance” is the title of a poem by Mallarmé that has sparked countless questions among people who reflect on the tension between chaos and structure, between chance and the apparent contradiction implied by its resolution in the creative act. This exhibition, To Cut-Out, seeks to create a space of densely populated immersion in which the listener, through her perception, forms her own constellations in making a poetic act out of what she hears. Designed for a closed space and 22 channels, the work consists of various possible “spaces.” The material inhabiting each space is of an indefinite nature, at least to some extent – whether because the individual sounds are too short and quick or, on the contrary, because they are so long and their transformations so slow that they become extremely difficult to perceive.
