Saturday, April 23rd from 6-8pm Piero Atchugarry Gallery is pleased to announce the Opening of Revealing, a dual exhibition of interwoven text, image, movement and sound, by Richard Garet (b. 1972, Montevideo, Uruguay) and Andres Michelena (b. 1963, Caracas, Venezuela). Garet and Michelena have shared a friendship dating back to 2006, marked by mutual respect and a common interest in the concept of emptiness. Garets’s materials emerge from ontological investigations of background noise and the decadence-and-decay of technological utilities. He seeks to invert the normative function of background noise from unconscious status to active presence. This exhibition is on view through June 4, 2022. This event is free & open to the public / RSVP HERE.

Revealing meditates on immateriality and manifestation from a phenomenological yet poetic point of view. Suspended from the gallery ceiling, Garet’s 30 Cycles of Flux is an objet sonore which paradoxically is unlistenable. An oscillator emits a 30 cycles wave (right below human beings’ hearing range) to activate speaker cones, which in turn move strings in a constant flow, subsequently producing a kinetic visualization of the wave. Michelena’s Loop Whole uses the preordained architectural logic of the gallery; the artist acts as a collaborator, activating contours of empty space with thread. Inside of the contour, Michelena punctures the walls, articulating barely perceptible phrases. Each poetic gesture reveals the discrete language of the gallery’s configuration.
