GASP statement
At Gasp we believe Art is a powerful tool that
enriches, reflects, and propels change that affects human
experience. In the 21st century, art mirrors a world constituted
by a tapestry of artistic languages and critical thinking that cross-pollinates
and coexists in hybrid stages; from new languages of the digital
age to new disciplines in art, the art of today is produced in a
context where differences should be tolerated, distances are negotiated,
and otherness must be embraced.
Gasp is a portal of ideas originated
by artists to further explore the relation and location of art production
and the community/ies that inspire and fuel it, to construct through
dialogue and openness a placement of the art practices that engage
and provoke questions along with an awareness of our complex and
fragile times.
Gasp attempts
to create a space for artistic exchange where artists will
explore and propose new possibilities for contemporary practices,
a site for collaboration between disciplines and fields in the contemporary
cultural landscape.
