Artist Giselle Delgado unveils the first part of what will be exhibited during arteaméricas 2008, in a perfomance that combines projected images, music, and where she will be, once again, giving out pins of the very much talked about LATIN AMERICAN ART IS HOT campaign that was created by her and Emilio Calleja, vicepresident of arteaméricas.
In this work, called ART.VERTISING 1, Giselle is erasing the thin line between art and advertising, by converting arteaméricas’ advertising campaign into a work of art, full of expression of her duality of living and being a creator in both worlds and the change of perception that people have when it’s art and when it’s advertising. (a mural of mixed media will be ehibited in arteaméricas). It also depicts how we are all guilty of manipulating and being willfully manipulated by others. All the photographs taken of people wearing the LATIN IS HOT button, since Art Basel, throughout all the art events in Miami, up until now, will be part of her work.
Also, to prove that both worlds CAN co-exist, she virtually hired a ficticious character, “Super-Woman” created by a well-known latin american artist, to “work” promoting Latin American Art Is Hot. Together, Superwoman, and Giselle Delgado, will have a collaborative piece at the fair, as well as a very interesting perfomance on Saturday March 8, at the Wynwood Gallery Night, between Praxis Gallery and Photo Lab. 7-10pm.
