Lex dimensions, como título de esta exposición aborda diferentes dimensiones de dicho medio, siendo una vía para contar una historia, unas circunstancias concretas.

De las dimensiones, en castellano, a les dimensions, tanto en catalán como en francés, derivo a Lex (con “x” ) enfatizándolo, agrandándolo; lex, como tal, viene a significar extensión del borde de ataque, es el reflejo y como queremos definir esta exposición, como los distintos bordes de ataque con los que asume una realidad dentro del medio elegido.

Todo viaje es una huida. Nuestros deseos guerrilleros mas perseverantes consiguen quebrar la atenta mirada de nuestra conciencia, acorralandola con placer.
Hoy nos entregamos sin culpa, e incluso en el mas obstinado compromiso, a aquello que brota naturalmente de nuestro interior, todo lo inexplicable,mágico y real.
Hoy nos alejamos de cualquier inhibicion que obstruya nuestra mision desconocida. Nuestra unica mision. La de responder a este llamado oculto de verdad, sin temor y con pasion.
Bienvenidos al maravilloso mundo de Alicia.

Workshop_ Paper Analog Parametric Design and Fabrication

[MATERIAL COMPUTATION WORKSHOP]

The present workshop inaugurates a new series of events dedicated to digital architecture and fabrication processes. This time we will be hosting students from the University of Patras [Greece] / Faculty of Architecture for an introduction into parametric thinking and material computation.

Designing material systems is blurring the limits between computation and physical form. A set of input parameters is needed in order for complex geometries and conditions to be elaborated. Parametric thinking causes a  shift in the way a designed object is conceived through  downscaling the system into elementary units. Thinking parametrically makes objects be generated by an internal mathematical logic based upon numbers and algorithms, instead, or on top, of  the traditional conceptual procedures.

In this workshop the use of parametrically designed catenary geometries made up from repetitive components will generate inverted topographies evocative of Gaudi’s models. Further parametric correlations will be based on synesthetic translations between images and form.

” The catenary model is an example of material computation, essentially self-calculating, resolving through feedback multidimensional forces acting on the linked field of strands and weights… As any scientist dealing with dynamics of material systems will tell you, the material field will always generate richer and more singular expressions than the programs derived from them will produce. Thus, there will always be a place for the analog in structural experimentation.”

Uncertain Future – Making Of from Keno Cordero on Vimeo.

Investigadores del Máster de Diseño de la Interacción de Elisava desarrollarán una serie de proyectos para demostrar diferentes principios en la utilización de energías renovables. Éstos proyectos tratarán sobre el absurdo y la imposibilidad de demostrar ciertos principios básicos de la preservación de la energía. Al estilo de “La Novia puesta al desnudo por sus solteros, incluso” de Douchamp, las máquinas para la cocina de Leonardo Da Vinci, o las máquinas imposibles de Bruno Munari.

Joost Tholens: photographic composites & the play of perception, March5, 2010 20:30

[PHOTOGRAPHIC COMPOSITES & THE PLAY OF PERCEPTION]

The present show marks the inauguration of a new circle of exhibitions dedicated to the study of the key factors that come into play throughout the process of visual perception.
Distance, density, geometry and scale will be the elemental subjects of this research.
Such a primal approach on visuality may lead to a variety of interaction levels: from the mere affirmation of compositional common sense to unknown grounds of emotional arousal

Our eyes, rest upon the images, relaxing and observing; always on the hunt for clues or fragments.
A swift shadow, an empty territory or even a trace of nature, all of these are elemental visual hints that relate one as a human with the depicted environment. Whether natural or man made, imaginary or real, these representations trigger a mechanism of self positioning within a space, thus allowing for such an illusive experience to take place in the mind of the viewer.
Within his creative agony, the artist is on the lookout for a volatile shadow or light, subtle qualities that amount to that “grand” moment.
The images then become vessels that carry us on a singular journey to a fictitious emplacement, a sacred individual experience witnessed by all.

Matteriashop collaborates with designers all over the globe, offering outrageously gorgeous objects for living made of eco-smart materials deriving from recycled, organic, renewable, non toxic sources as well as energy efficient lighting.Guerrilla shop 2 day invasion in CORRETGER5 for all to experience eco design on display, get inspired and do some last minute Christmas shopping!

[through]
“A través es algo que  hacemos constantemente, desde que nacemos hasta que morimos. Pasamos de un estado a otro, a través del tiempo y del espacio, incluso de la materia y de la inmateria

Esta exposición expresa cómo los códigos de identificación registran e imprimen la historia, nuestra historia, en un viaje a través de inocentes mensajes esenciales.
Un viaje donde la luz atraviesa las palabras y las formas y nos descubre otra dimensión de la materia. La travesía, como siempre, es tuya, en cada mensaje que nos llega  y dejamos que penetre y nos atraviese… “  (Nu Diaz)

[fab-art]
Esta exposición está integramente fabricada en el laboratorio de fabricación digital FAB LAB BCN con maquinas de corte por láser.
Todo el trabajo producido hasta la actualidad por la artista nu diaz, como sus cuadros de luz, fueron realizados con técnicas artesanales a través de la transferencia de trazos sobre tela o papel.
En esta, su ultima produccion, la gestacion de su obra se produce a través de procesos digitales, mediante la transferencia de trazos a codigos numéricos, que al igual que en las piezas de papel, son interpretados por una maquina de corte de laser, eliminando materia mecanicamente para permitir el paso de la luz.

Dress Up @ Corretger5. SATURDAY 28 November 2009. 18hs.

showroom Dress Up

For most women, spotting someone at a party wearing the same dress as you is the stuff of nightmares. But, to avoid this happening and to be original you don’t have to break the bank. Thankfully, there are always ideas from Dress Up, a team of budding designers, who’ve organised a showroom this coming Saturday. There you’ll be able to find unique and original pieces for your winter wardrobe without maxing your credit cards. Delicate ideas such as My Grandmother’s Sofa for women or more modern suggestions from Georgina Vendrell for men. Clothing which falls somewhere between bizarre and naïve from Sugar Rush, and serious innovations like Nerea Lurgain. You could also enjoy dressing up some cut-out models with your favourite outfits!

Collectives & Egoists. Exhibition 17-22 Marzo 2009

La exposición Colectivos y egoístas muestra trabajos actuales de artistas de la Universidad Bauhaus de Weimar. Se podrá ver entre el 17 y el 22 de marzo en una nueva galería ubicada en el Borne llamada CORRETGER5 en donde se presentaran trabajos de estudiantes y profesores de la Universidad Bauhaus. La temática de Colectivos y egoístas trata sobre el colectivismo creativo y el individualismo artístico.
El enfoque de la reflexión se centra en los procesos de creación postmodernos entre el individualismo artístico y el enredo global. Además se enmarca dentro del 90º aniversario de la formación del Bauhaus histórico, y así investigar de nuevo los enredos colectivos de la vanguardia moderna para comprobar su validez actual. Más allá de la obra, el proceso de creación sirve como fuente de ideas para una nueva reflexión sobre el pensamiento colectivo artístico en el siglo XXI…

Arquitectura + Arte interactivo

El juliol de 2008 CORRETGER5 es funda a Barcelona. En un espai diàfan i fascinant, un antic estable d’una de les mansions més prominent al centre històric de la ciutat, un grup d’arquitectes van decidir desafiar els tradicionals vincles entre l’arquitectura, art i disseny que ofereix formes innovadores d’interacció.

CORRETGER5 aconsegueix d’aquesta manera, un continu estat de fermentació i un esperit llunyà a les tendències arquitectòniques, alternant el disseny amb un ampli programa d’exposicions, conferències i cursos de petit format.
