EXPOSICIÓ: TEMPS FUGIT
ASSOCIACIÓ (ART) CATALUNYA
Comissari: Joan Gil Gregorio

Sala la Nau. Tossa de Mar
Del 24 de setembre al 24 d’octubre de 2010

En un moment com l’actual en el que la creació artística està directament vinculada amb el temps, l’Associació Art Catalunya ha volgut reflexionar envers aquest concepte, produint i presentant l’exposició Temps fugit, en el marc de les activitats que anualment  proposa. El temps com deia Borges no existeix, sinó que forma part del propi ésser humà: “El temps és un foc que em devora, però jo soc el foc”.

El temps i el seu control; l’anhel per aprofitar-lo, assaborir-lo i congelar-lo són desitjos inherents a tota persona. Un anhel que històricament ha tingut múltiples expressions culturals i artístiques, des de les màscares funeràries, les tombes egípcies, els calendaris maies o els vanites barrocs. Tant en la literatura com en l’art el concepte de temps científic es barreja amb el temps subjectiu i interior. D’aquí que la fugacitat del temps hagi estat tractada extensament des de temps remots com ho demostra l’expressió Tempus fugit; una expressió que prové del llatí i que significa “el temps s’escapa” o “el temps vola”, convidant-nos a no perdre’l. L’expressió apareix per primera vegada en els escrits de las Geòrgiques, poemes escrits pel poeta romà Virgili (70 a.C-19 a.C.), amb la frase «Sed fugit interea fugit irreparabile tempus, singula dum capti circumvectamur amore», que es pot traduir com “però mentre fuig, fuig el temps irremissiblement, mentre restem atrapats per l’amor cap als detalls”.

La noció de temps no ha estat percebuda de la mateixa manera al llarg de la història i des de sempre ha estat íntimament relacionada amb la ciència, la tècnica i la antropologia. Les diferents formes en les que el temps es manifesta ha obsessionat als artistes de totes les èpoques i tot i tractar-se d’un concepte molt difícil de copsar, en tot moment han buscat la manera de representar-lo.

L’exposició Temps fugit, comissariada pel crític d’art Joan Gil, es planteja com un viatge per la representació del temps i la incidència sobre el món artístic; una exposició d’artistes contemporanis de diferents generacions que confronta estils, llenguatges, percepcions i emocions amb l’objectiu de mostrar al visitant tots els aspectes de la temporalitat. La mostra proposa un discurs sobre diferents maneres d’entendre el temps a través d’una tria d’obres que giren al voltant de la idea tan humana i tan irreversible com és la caducitat.

L’estructura de la mostra obeeix a un concepte cronològic, i no pas al de tendències o estils. Amb aquest criteri hem volgut traçar un recorregut en el temps a través de diferents generacions d’artistes per veure com ha reflexionat cadascuna d’elles envers el concepte temps, i alhora, com s’hi relacionen. Des del surrealisme de Dalí en el que el triomf dels somnis i dels desitjos dobleguen el control d’aquest temps, passant pels artistes de la Segona Avantguarda que trenquen amb l’art acadèmic per expressar el seu existencialisme més rotund, seguint amb els inquiets artistes nascuts als anys cinquanta i seixanta que fan propostes de tall introspectiu i vital, fins a les noves generacions dels anys 70 que busquen en les noves expressions una manera d’explicar la finitud en una època marcada pel canvi de valors. Així és com els 50 artistes representats teixeixen la seva visió particular de la temporalitat, a través de diferents disciplines com ara la pintura, el dibuix, l’escultura, la fotografia, el vídeo i la instal·lació.

La selecció ha partit dels artistes que treballen amb galeries pertanyents a l’Associació d’Art Catalunya, d’aquí que la selecció tingui com a tret de sortida uns determinats autors contemporanis als que se’ls ha demanat la seva participació amb una peça relacionada amb el tema. Per a completar la mostra, i per tal d’oferir un ventall cronològic més ampli, hem completat la representació amb la inclusió d’alguns autors històrics –especialment sensibles a la transcendència de l’efímer- que ens ajuden a resseguir un fil conductor des dels anys 60 fins a l’actualitat.
