Social
Art in Argentina: The work of Alexander Marmo
|
Alejandro Marmo dream
itinerary transits through its social art sublimation and generates
hope in the postmodern world solidarity. The subjectivity of art
in the universe of this artist transcends the postmodern project,
individual and individualistic. The eyes of Marmo's work are inputs
to other imaginary worlds like that open portals to worlds unseen
and who were admitted after shocks, as a profound crisis (social
or individual).
Marmo symbols-the watchful eyes of owls and penetrating, tender
embraces of the meeting in solidarity, a labor-consuming are ontological
arguments of desires, longings and missions of its own class:
the working class. Marmo, through his work, transmitting knowledge,
stimulates senses and picks up the glove identity of those killed
by the Wall utopias fallen.
The artist is embarking on a genuine praxis socioestética:
without renouncing its principles without compromise with worker
and vice elitist art scene, promotes a synergy of creativity itself
and of those in their social (workers, artists, children from
poor areas) to extrapolate their dream worlds-sometimes-graceful
and other powerful works arising from industrial backwardness.

The
sense of Anthropology in a social art project |
The anthropological approach to retrieve the
look, the voice, knowledge and interests of those will be the
protagonists and recipients of art project for all proposed
Alejandro Marmo.
Inclusion plans promoted by state policies or private sector
driven often leave out of decisions and design of projects to
their intended beneficiaries, implementing more often prefabricated
recipes based on prejudices and stereotypes about these groups
excluded that intended to be covered. The result: people are
not appropriated for such initiatives because they recognize
them as their own and, hence, the projects fail. On the contrary,
we believe that social intervention plans-whatever the scope
of art, politics, health, etc.- recipients of these plans should
be involved in the preparation of the agenda according to their
needs, demands and interests. This inclusion of subjects from
the same preparation of the plan involves a revaluation of specific
knowledge of each social sector.
In the case of the Art in factories converge knowledge of the
artist and that of workers. The legitimacy of the artist in
front of his subjects is that Marmo claims its origins in the
popular sectors and this source allows you to share that knowledge
and practices with the workers, a condition which enables him
to understand his worldview and establish a fluid dialogue from
the same codes and languages of the people with whom they interact.
Besides helping to strengthen the identity of these individuals,
the proposal allows these sectors Marmo recognized in such works
as there is a framework of shared experience with local significance
only for members of that group.
In short, it comes to building and / or provide other channels
of dialogue, open discussion, activate a social critique and
an understanding of others through a deep aesthetic experience,
in this case towards an expected social equality.
