THE ECOLOGIES OF PEACE II
Co-organized by TBA21 Thyssen-Bornemisza Art Contemporary and C3A Centro de Creación Contemporánea de Andalucía
Dates: September, 27, 2024 - March 30, 2025
Curated by Daniela Zyman
The final iteration of TBA21’s exhibition trilogy at C3A in Córdoba explores the transformative role of wisdom traditions and poetic expressions in addressing past injustices and ongoing erasure. From September 27, 2024, to March 30, 2025, the second chapter of The Ecologies of Peace focuses on mourning and forgiveness, fostering inventive and conciliatory worldmaking. This vision of a culture of peace is encapsulated in Indian artist Amar Kanwar's question: "If different poetic narratives could merge to reveal a universal language of symbols and meanings, would there be a moment of prophecy?" The emphasis on prophetic symbolism, rituals, sacredness, and poetics deeply resonates in the contributions of John Akomfrah, Ayrson Heráclito, Samson Kambalu, Nohemí Pérez, Joiri Minaya, and Rachel Rose.
In the face of a host of global, interwoven, and increasingly complex crises, The Ecologies of Peace raises profound questions about the ethical, ecological, economic, conceptual, and aesthetic norms and practices, both individual and collective, that are at play when describing and reshaping human agency. For whatever the dilemmas wrought from thinking about peace, they indicate that peacefulness is an unending transformational query and a “traveling” idea, marked by the myriad stations, communities, and realities through which it passes.
