GAME PIECE

ANNOUNCEMENT  27 APRIL

 

ERICK  BELTRÁN Y BERNARDO ORTIZ: GAME PIECE

Friday 27 April 2018. H. 18:00

CICUS. UNIVERSITY SEVILLA. C/ Madre de Dios, 1.

 

Game Piece is a performative conference held by artists Erick Beltrán and Bernardo Ortiz.

 

Two people engage in a game with simple rules. They toss a coin to decide who will begin and the first is given the floor to tell their story. In turn, the other participant will contest with their story. Their stories must have a connection with the original. The connections between the stories can be comparable, metaphorical or circumstantial, it doesn’t matter. When the second person finishes telling their story, the first person must contest with another story. The game continues until one of the participants decides to stop. The decision to stop is made on an acceptance of defeat or finding the right time.

 

Game Piece has been celebrated in different art contexts such as Ephemeropteræ, Thyssen-Bornemisza Art Contemporary (TBA21) Vienna, 2011, The VOLT Foundation in Bergen (Norway) in collaboration with the University of Bergen and the Wittgenstein Archives, or MUSAC of Castile and Leon, as well as others.
