Lola Lasurt

( Barcelona, 1983 )

'Trabajo aspectos del des-tiempo, normalmente con el tiempo justo anterior al mío, con las paradojas de una época que tenia que suponer muchos cambios. Esquivo la doctrina histórica y llevo a cabo un análisis del pasado reciente como una empresa abierta y auto-crítica con proyectos se formalizan a través de la instalación pictórica, el vídeo, trabajos editoriales y por medio de procesos colaborativos. Todo ello contribuye a una reorganización de la historiografía a través de una arqueología de los medios -con un énfasis especial en el quehacer pictórico como punto de partida y primera tradición- desde una perspectiva micro-política y performativa que me lleva a plantear todo mi trabajo como un ejercicio de reenactment.'

 

Licenciada en Bellas Artes por la Universidad de Barcelona, con un postgrado en Estética y Teoría del Arte por a la UAB, finaliza estudios en el Departamento de Arte y Humanidades del Royal College of Art (UK).

Ha sido artista residente en HISK, Gante (BE); Greatmore Art Studios, Cape Town (SA), La Ene, Buenos Aires (AR); Kunsthuis SYB (NL), el Frans Masereel Centrum (BE), L'Espai EArt y Hangar (SP).

 

Nominada al Young Belgian Art Prize’15/ BOZAR Bruselas, ha recibido el Premio Miquel Casablancas'15/ Sant Andreu Contemporani, el Premio Biennal d’Art de Valls'17/ Fundación Guasch Coranty, el tercer premio de la 15ª Mostra de Arte Naturgy'18/ MAC A Coruña, la Beca Generación'18/ Fundación Montemadrid y la Beca Leonardo'19 a Investigadores y Creadores Culturales/ Fundación BBVA.

'I work with displaced time aspects, very often with the time just before I was born, with the paradoxes of an epoch that was to suppose lots of changes. It coincides with the political transition from dictatorship to democracy in Spain but it characterizes as paradigm-shifting in politics and society, as well as art around the world, and has a complicated relationship to how we construct our own identity nowadays in the context of late democracy. My projects involve an open non-theological undertaking of history formalizing through the use of different media; it can be painting, video, editorial components or collaborative processes. They contribute to the re-organization of historiography built from a media-archaeology and a performative viewpoint on micro-politics that can pose my work as a reenactment exercise.'
