Description

Carlos Aires is a Spanish author, photographer and contemporary artist who has participated in a range of exhibitions worldwide. He has received several awards and prizes for his work. This is the first time Aires will work with a Norwegian institution. In the project Carlos Aires will collaborate with the Norwegian curator Siv Hofsvang who represents the Norwegian art institution Punkt Ø AS. The goal of the institution is to promote knowledge and understanding for Norwegian and international contemporary art. Punkt Ø runs Galleri F 15 and Momentum (the Nordic Biennial for Contemporary Art). The objective of the project is professional development, dialogue and cultural exchange. Support is provided to help address fragmentation and to stimulate artist mobility and capacity development. Carlos Aires will exhibit his work at Galleri F 15 as part of an exchange project between Aires and several Norwegian artists. The project will explore how different countries approach the world and how their different perceptions speak to one another. The project will be produced in Spain and Norway and presented in Moss in autumn 2014.
