El asunto de lo remoto: una apuesta a la acción común
by Milena Rivas - La primera piedra (Spanish)
"We are interested in activating questions in relation to how we organize ourselves and how we participate in a constellation of different voices, and Consumation puts the focus precisely on the how, opening the spectrum of answers, or rather, new questions, into countless possibilities, which can go from action and enthusiasm to inaction and apathy among others. How do we get involved as spectators? Consumation is a performance that challenges the audience in such a way that they never stop being responsible for what is happening."

Talk Max and Lea
by Max Wallenhorst and Lea Langenfelder - DirtyDebüt #2 - Clean (German, English)
“...the ordinary participants performing ordinariness, and the professional performers – who of course happened to be among them and then put on a hand washing show of their own. Both of which seemed to me, as this personal person I am, sometimes more interesting and sometimes less. But I was overall surprised how a clean one idea performance can hold this bouquet of actions together, while at the same time not being an over-definitive framework. The kind of clean setting that “consumation” was inviting us into, both formally and performatively felt like a virtuosic style of vulnerability.”

El despiole como conocimiento
by Juan Laxagueborde - Flasherito (Spanish)
"Arcadia needs nothing but its own nonsense to expand on the fundamental issues of the cycle of matter, which, of course, include us. The women in this piece know well that gaps are never filled and that abysses have abysses of their own. Because of this, and because they think togetherness together, they are expert baroques in comfortable clothing."

Resiliencia
by Daniel Daverio on the workshop Detrás del Acontecimiento - En Convivencia DoceVeinticuatro Segunda Cuadernos de Danza - SEMANA 11 (Spanish)
“From what perspective do we see the background? Yes, obviously perspective refers to the spatial and visual order of things, but how many layers does the background unfold? The background encompasses the entire perceptual universe. Behind a discourse, behind a concept, behind the skin, behind joy, behind pain, behind a sigh, behind the human, behind the political, behind a death, behind an idea..... and again, behind disappearance?
Perhaps it is not necessary to understand or grasp the background, just let it act. The background of each one is not activated by each one, it works by itself. It is not something that is done. The background is becoming.”

Una revelación de lo posible
by Adriana Viñals on the workshop Detrás del Acontecimiento - En Convivencia DoceVeinticuatro Segunda Cuadernos de Danza - SEMANA 11 (Spanish)
“Between the perception of a sensoriality exacerbated by some stimulus and the purely formal choice of let’s say a space.. How do we discover the obverse and the reverse of this scene / event that triggers the senses?”

Las cosas sin sosiego
by Alejandra Varela - Las12 - Página 12 Newspaper (Spanish)
“If Kantor explained that the form of packaging was born from war refugees who made their bodies a mountain of bags and bundles, this performative work by Bárbara Hang and Ana Lozza seems to take the images of a classless country, wounded by floods or evictions where objects, separated from a context that protects them, are shown as the remains of other experiences.”

La tierra imaginaria
by Agustina Muñoz - Radar - Página 12 Newspaper (Spanish)
“...the spectator witnesses the synthesis of the endeavor itself; to the human desire for collective and creative action, to the future imagined among many; and also to its failure (...) Agreement, negotiation and admittance of collapse of an idea are the bases for this work to happen and unfold.”

Arcadia
by Amalia Di Gregorio - Sobre BUE (Spanish)
“These urban nymphs of no city become ephemeral architects, warriors, makers of new languages. All things take on different meanings as time progresses. Time that sometimes is set in such a deceleration, that seems to disappear.”

Catarata de escritura / Arqueologías del Futuro
by Nea Rattagan, Victoria Castelvetri and unknown author (Spanish)
“The place is inhabited in an incomprehensible displacement. It is disorganized and organized. An apparent order is achieved while the voices propose profound or absurd things. They are not doing anything. They are doing.
Possibility is overlapped onto words. Ideas that are spilled out and heard, that are hypothetically carried out. How do we build a common thing? How do we inhabit dissent?
Arcadia disassembles under the conceptual grounds, while the body reassembles itself permanently.”

Reseña: 4 artificios
by Juana Grisolía - Los Inrockuptibles Magazine (Spanish)
“4 artificios flirts constantly with two positions towards gesture; on the one hand, the search for perfection and precision in movements; on the other hand, the concession of the human copy’s identity: the three people do the same thing but in each body the difference is magnificent and mysterious. The same word in the mouth of one person can be violent and in the other childish, the same gesture that in one body is soft, in the other martial, and so on... Not because it is sought in its performativity but because it comes out that way. In the copy, something new appears, like a twisted and captivating mirror by the simplicity and abysmal nature of that unsought modification.”

4 artificios
by Agustina Muñoz - Otra Parte Magazine (Spanish)
“The question is about what animates us, about the inheritance impregnated in gestures, in movements, about the way in which the street or even works of art are in us in a subterranean but concrete way, not only in ideas but also in the skin, in the bones. (...) 4 artificios tries to give answers to these questions in an aesthetic and playful essay on the human, the artificial, what is common to one body and to another; on what happens when a man stands next to another and is no longer alone.”

4 artificios
by Nea Rattagan Craneápolis Blog (Spanish)
“Trade of movement with nothing in return but the appropriation of the movement produced by the other with the particularity of each one, giving it their own body. (...) Is it possible to have an exact relation between a word and its meaning? Does everyone understand the same thing in front of the same word? Or does the word open the interpretation by making the concept different for me, for the other, for the one beyond? What about kinesthetic perception? Here lies the possible crack of contemporary art work in the globalized world.”

Catarata de escritura / Arqueologías del Futuro
by collective writing group with Camila Malenchini and others (Spanish)
“What is the thing we are always looking for, which is different but we always call it a thing? We stop naming the thing as the thing in order to drill the world with a thousand words and find it. Not everything can be called a thing, but when we call it something else we move away from the thing.”
“Microphysics of detail, micropolitics of the minimum, microbe that shakes a precarious equilibrium, that inhabits an off-center center.
I look at you, it looks at you. What do you see? I am this, the thing. Will you bear it?
A gaze that begs. This thing that I am now in a trance. I can't get out of me. Punch, punch, Groove and distortion. Stop.”

Eso que es la cosa
by Nea Rattagan - Craneápolis (Spanish)
“It is worth thinking about what the thing is, which is the thing, what happens with the thing, as if it were about the essentiality of the bodies.
Or to venture to affirm that what is there, at the same time hidden and unveiled, that explodes and is contained, that trembles and curls up, is the thing, the crux of the matter, that ungraspable something of dance.”
