Andamio Contiguo
(Norma Cabrera & Silvia Debora)
Nunca Màs (Never More)
The death machine that took to thousands of Argentineans
during the dictatorship is a deep black hole in the
conscience and the destiny of our country, one night that
continues surrounding the fatality of its missing bodies.
We want to generate a memory tool, to install a simulacre where
the spectator can take active part and, for a moment, to stop the time and to recover
the image of some of the women who the world lost by decision of an ill and intolerant society.
(Due to an obsolete technology, the art work “Nunca Màs” cant be displayed online any more!
Short biography
Andamio Contiguo is a interdisciplinary artistic team of the city of Santa Fe, Argentina, founded on 1992 and of long theater trajectory.
It initiates in the year 2002 a project of interrelation between theater and digital art, using itself for its own production in both areas.
The essence of a dramatic text is to be put into action and this action in someone’s presence; performer body in front of spectator body. What happen about a dramatic text that it’s concreted in the Web?
It’s performing is generated from an electronic means that transmits light. Trying to avoid an ilustration of the writing, were generated
atmospheres of light, or textures that wish to cought the spectator in a dramatic fact, because they ask the action to be developed inside him, on a virtual way.
With Plato Fuerte, first work of these characteristics, participated in the Muestra Internacional of the IV International Digital Art Exhibit in La Habana, Cuba; it took part in /-Reload —///, exhibition of digital art in the web that organized the Museum of Contemporary Art of Istambul, Turkey; and he was integral of SALA ROJA, publication of international digital art in CD-Rom, made by the Center of Modern Art of Quilmes, Buenos Aires, Argentina. Paul Vater was selectionated to participate in Web Biennial 2003 organised by istanbulmuseum.org, Turkey. Also was choosen for V International Digital Art Exhibit, La Habana, Cuba.
These are the only references left from the artists couple Andiamio Contiguo, no other traces left so far.
