12th Havana Biennial
HAVANA – May 20, 2015
During The 12th Havana Biennial, The Wilfredo Lam Center of Contemporary Art & The Development Center for the Visual Arts will open a unique exhibition featuring work from Panamanian Dutch artist Antonio Jose Guzman on May 22. In Project ELOO El Organo Oriental, the organ plays music that has been composed using the information elements from the Guzman’s DNA. The enlarged sheets of the unique organ score hang suspended in the space. This makes the DNA not only audible but also visible, the installation also includes photos of his highly regarded photo series the Forbidden Kingdom. In addition, the Cuban orchestra La Tradicion Del Milenio will support the exhibition on a daily basis.
Born in 1971 in Panama City, Panama, based in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, Antonio Jose Guzman was one of the first Panamanian artists to embrace scientific research and conceptual abstraction in his work. Guzman studied in Panama, New York, Costa Rica and at the Amsterdam’s Gerrit Rietveld Academie.
ELOO from Antonio Jose Guzman is a collaboration between the Wilfredo Lam Center of Contemporary Art and Atelier GF Workstation Amsterdam, the project has been generously supported by the Mondriaan Foundation from the Netherlands.
“In keeping with our dedication of exhibiting and researching the work by Latin American artists like Antonio Jose Guzman, The Wilfredo Lam Center of Contemporary Art is pleased to launch Project ELOO during the 12th Havana Biennial ,” says the Biennial Director Jorge Fernandez Torres at the Cuban renown television program Mesa Redonda. “Guzman’s work is groundbreaking and merits the attention of a wider audience. This exhibition combines his innovative work with fascinating aspects of his art process.”
“It’s important to say that in the 12th Havana Biennial upcoming artists like Antonio Jose Guzman will come into contact with legendary artists like Michelangelo Pistoletto; Daniel Buren, Anish Kapoor or Joseph Kosuth. The Havana Biennial, for many of these artists, will be a major release.”
ABOUT THE Biennial
Between the Idea and Experience
May 22 – June 22, 2015
Curatorial team: Jorge Fernandez Torres, Director Havana Biennial and Curator, Margarita Gonzalez Lorente, Artistic Director Havana Biennial and Curator.
Curators: Nelson Herrera Ysla, Jose Manuel Noceda Fernandez, Margarita Sanchez Prieto, Ibis Hernandez Abascal, Dannys Montes de Oca Moreda, and Jose Fernandez Portal.
This year, the program of activities includes performances from the worlds of dance, theatre, music, film and literature. In the words of one of the organisers: “It won’t be a Biennial for collectors or gallerists, but rather to make a connection with the city”. There will be no official opening or specific venue; art will spill out of the galleries, bursting into the streets which will be bubbling with ideas.
The 12th Biennial will be held in squares, parks and urban spaces, as well as in the usual venues for the event, including the Wifredo Lam Centre of Contemporary Art, the photo library Fototeca de Cuba, the Centre for the Development of Visual Arts and the Cuba Pavilion.

Independence of Spain - Panama
Today Panama celebrates The Independence of the
Villa de Los Santos also known as La Independencia de la Villa de Los Santos,
November 10, 1821. This event would begin a process of uprisings in cities
across the Isthmus, ending with the declaration of the independence of Panama
from Spain on November 28, 1821. But slavery was somehow kept in the Isthmus
until almost the end of the century. In Panama slavery was part of the economy
of the Isthmus and all institutions like hospitals, clergy, landowners and the
local bourgeoisie practiced. Powerful interests were in agreement with slavery
and the fact that so much money was invested in the institution.
It was not until May 21, 1851 that thanks
to Simon Bolivar, the abolition of slavery was enacted by the Congress of the New
Granada. Slavery didn’t stop completely and after independence from Colombia the
Constitution of 1904, the first of Panamanian independent life, debuted with
Article 19, which prescribed: "There will be no slaves in Panama. Whoever,
is a servant and step on the territory of the Republic, shall be free. "
The
real heroes of the independence are Maroons like Bayano, Felipillo Anton Mandinga,
and Luis de Mozanbique. Revolutionary leaders of the earliest and most important Palenque’s
in the Americas like Nombre de Dios, Acla, El Rincon, Chepo, Pacora and Real de
Santamaria in Darien where my grandfather Antonio Jaramillo was.

Ritualism - Melkweg
Right now preparing for another exhibit in the Melkweg Galerie in Amsterdam
OPENING: Friday 19 September, 18.00 hrs
RITUALISM
19 September – 5 October 2014
With works from Iain McKell – Yvonne Brandwijk – Isolde Woudstra – Sharieta Berghuis – Antonio José Guzman – Jochem Sanders – Tim Georgeson e.a.
“Ritualism” can be seen as documenting the latest religion of city dwellers. It explores the ways in which modern people, whether we are aware of it or not, create rituals in our daily lives. Sometimes these rituals are designed to help us find deeper meaning in our lives. Other times we use rituals to lose ourselves in the seemingly endless stream of sensations that bombard us in modern life. Stripped of all dogmas, we as individuals can develop our own rituals that define our place in the current of urban life.

Scotland Referendum vs Caledonia
Today Scotland will decide if they become an independent
country or if they continue been part of the United Kingdom. Scotland
had a colony in Panama in 1698 named Caledonia. Couple of years ago I started a research project about the Scottish Colonies in Panama and how
their colony failure force them to annex to the U.K.
The failure of the Darien colonisation project has been cited as one of the motivations for the 1707 Acts of Union. According to this argument, the Scottish establishment considered that their best chance of being part of a major power would be to share the benefits of England’s international trade and the growth of the English Empire, so its future would have to lie in unity with England. Furthermore, Scotland’s nobles were almost bankrupted by the Darien fiasco.

hogon (the forbidden kingdom)
work in progress
The Hogon series are an exploration to the manner in which contemporary photography, fashion and visual history use cultural appropriation as a style; Taking without permission, the cultural artefacts, intellectual property, or cultural expressions, of another cultures.
Taking this unnatural phenomenon of appropriation and cultural neo-colonization, the series use characters and metaphors that represent the separation and alienation of non western cultures and appropriators. Covering the faces of the people portrayed, I define the syndromes of subjection, violence, individualism, alienation and objectification that affect modern society.

présence
Since the beginning of human history geometric order and chaos exists in architectural and urban structures together. Balance between order and chaos is necessary. I am constantly looking for photographs and spaces that exude a melancholic mood and mystery. The indifference created covering the faces of the people portrayed, depicts a world of African myths and global realities.
Creating this visual obstruction the photographs visualize the social costs of our careless Indifference to the world we living and our communities. As most of my work the series were born from past experiences, dreams and desires.
Some of the portraits on the series were inspired by Dogon African Mythology and by the paintings ” The Son of Man” and “La Grande Guerre Façades” by Belgian painter René Magritte.

Helvedmania!
We are proud to present our newest Hel Ved artist on the KunstRAI:
Antonio Jose Guzman.
His work ‘The Forbidden Kingdom’ creates indifference by covering the faces of the people portrayed, depicting a world of African myths and global realities.
HEL VED is an photographers agency & art gallery specialised in documentary-oriented photography.
http://www.helved.nl
HEL VED is an agency specialised in documentary-oriented photography for fashion, general campaigns and editorial purposes. HEL VED is an agency but acts as a gallery as well, with an online presence and offline events.
We define New Documentary as photography that uses reality as a canvas to create explicitly subjective perspectives of images. This can result in an abstraction from reality, but can also facilitate a deeper look into the fabric of that same reality. One could say that New Documentary is the poetic aspect of ‘regular documentary photography’, traditionally seen in news and photo journalism.
Clearly things are not always black and white as scientists or philosophers would hope. But then again, photography is not a science. It’s a continuously evolving art.
Labels are no more than a device which serve to enable a conversation about creative work. And in order to stimulate this conversation. Hel Ved has initiated New Documentary: a platform and evening dedicated to the art of New Documentary photography.

The American Race Crisis lectures
Some years ago I was lucky to be invited by Sean Jacobs and Sasha Dees to give a lecture on “DNA as a work of art” at the New School Graduate Program in International Affairs.
The New School is one of the most extraordinary places I had ever lecture and I’ll be eternally thankful to Sean Jacobs and Sasha Dees for inviting me. Now, fifty years after the VOICES OF CRISIS: THE AMERICAN RACE CRISIS LECTURES, THE NEW SCHOOL, 1964.
There will be a series of lectures and presentations commemorating the event from February 12 to March 6, 2014. If you are in the New York area don’t miss this change to be part of history. Opening reception to be held in galleries immediately following the February 12 event.
In 1964, The American Race Crisis lectures brought to The New School leading figures from the civil rights movement. Speakers included Martin Luther King, Jr., Roy Wilkins, James Farmer, Ossie Davis, Louis Lomax, and John Killens, among others. Now, fifty years later, VOICES OF CRISIS tells the story of the American Race Crisis lecture series, featuring exclusive audio, from the series.
Through photographs, documents, transcripts, and audio recordings, including a question and answer with Martin Luther King, Jr., the exhibition sheds light on the behind-the-scenes context of these historic Sheila C. Johnson Design Center Arnold and Sheila Aronson Galleries.
