Esther Planas: Events and Aparitions in Red





Proyectos Ultravioleta
Guatemala City, Guatemala

Rojo Internacional, relating to the International Socialist principles, to reminds us of its ethical and political importance. Found forbidden painted red cubes as walls for political propaganda at the streets in Guatemala City, that re-appear at the space guided by the outside light reflections and shadows.

The International Red subject opens channels of memory and convene the spirits of the dead massacred native indians of Guatemala and the rest of América, and reminds us of the political

forces that have tried since, to bring justice on such repressive and conflicted grounds.

An invocation to these “events” to make themselves present and to “appear” on the gallery space and take over the bodies that circulate in it.. to be possessed and subconsciously reminded of what lies there just above its ground.

It relies on the trail of “influence” they generated and establishing a continuation, a route even

for re-draw and re-run on a re-location of “their embodiment” in what could suddenly be called re-apparitions on Red or even just as a re-emergence of Red…The Red and the essential geometrical cubic angles of the “concrete structure” coming to life and acting by themselves, choosing to appear or not and provoking the audience with the memory of the Red spectre.

To place themselves, to ask to the “medium” to make them visible again.

In a primary language and fast free association, the “Red School”, the “Red Infection”, and the “Red Spectre”.Content
