ARCO | Cantes de ida y vuelta
05.03.2025 – 09.03.2025
Group Show
This project is a cultural maze that connects artists from Europe and Latin America, mirroring the migrant’s journey. Five artists present works that evoke a “cante de ida y vuelta”,enriched by influences from both sides of the Atlantic. The works on display trace cultural routes, exploring themes of belonging and displacement. This journey culminates in a reflection on migration and artistic transformation, bridging oceans and cultures in an ongoing exchange.
From Istanbul, crossing the Mediterranean, to Mexico, the Río de la Plata, and circling back through Antarctica, this journey not only reveals showcases the richness of musical expressions shaped in transit but also the adaptation and artistic evolution that emerge from cross-continental interaction.
The artists—María García Ibáñez (Spain/Mexico), Álvaro Porras Soriano (Valencia), Volkan Diyaroglu (Istanbul/Berlin), Matías Ercole (Buenos Aires), Amparo Tormo (Valencia), and Manuel Vilariño (Galicia)—are situated in the exhibition space as a journey tracing a cartography of maritime and cultural routes between the West and America, starting in Valencia.
