The exhibition Invocable Reality explores possible perspectives on
reality from art practices through a selection of works by eleven
artists from different backgrounds and generations. The works in
Invocable Reality approach reality in a subtle way. They start from
the 'here and now' of the reality that the artists intend to
'investigate and conquer': incorporating fragments in the
exhibition space (Roman Ondak), turning the gallery into a real
space (Antonio Ortega), filming it (Lutz Mommartz, Jeremy Deller
and Mireia Sallares), trying to direct it (John Smith), looking for
connections in space and time (Enric Farres-Duran), influencing it
(Nuria Guell), showing the devastating effects of a mediated
reality (Phil Collins), demonstrating the impossibility of its
representation (Rafel G. Bianchi) or showing how we have turned
death into something unreal (Jill Magid). The catalogue reproduces
a series of photographs of the exhibition installation, whose
selection of works is discussed in the text by Montse Badia,
curator of the exhibition, as well as the essay 'On "The Real"' by
the French philosopher Clement Rosset.
Describing what is real as that which is singular, as that which
doesn't have a double, Rosset concludes his philosophical trilogy
on reality. "Describiendo lo real como lo singular, lo que no tiene
doble, Rosset concluye su trilogia filosofica que trata sobre la
realidad."
