“Between Borders” in Spain

“Enter fronteiras-between borders” is the name of the exhibition managed by Curate Carolina Grau, opened a few days ago in Marco-Vigo of Spain. In this exhibition, which has borders as a concept, apart from many other well known artists of on the contemporary world stage of art, two Albanian artists are also exhibiting their work. They are Albert Heta and Anri Sala. The curate had this idea of organizing an exhibition after touring several states and as she underlines herself, she never saw the borders between two states, when it came down to art, although these boundaries physically exist. “The last tiem I was in Gallicia, I walked from Porto to Viga, I walked along the motor road and I supposed that I would be stopped on the border between Spain and Portugal but there wasn’t a border,” Grau said. Artist from Kosovo Albert Heta presents two works, “The Embassy of the Republic of Kosovo” realized in Cetinje ( a work which has sparked off considerable controversy), and the video, “Pam pam” realized in 2003. While the other Albanian artist Anri Sala, who has not been living in Albania since 1997, takes part with contemporary works of art.
Other artists taking part are Alejandra Riera and Fulvia Carnevale (Argintina), Bojan Sarcevic (Serbia), Chantal Akerman (Belgium), Costa Vece (Switzerland), Ergin Eavusogklu (Bulgaria), Guzmc de Yarza Blache (Spain, (Jun Yang (China) Maja Bajevic(Bosnia), Marine Hugonnier(France), Muratbek Djumaliev and Gulnara Kasmalieva (Kirgzstan), Pierre Bismuth (France), Santiago Sierra (Mexico), Sejla Kameric (Bosnia) and Zineb Serdiran from France. Between Borders will remain open until 20 May at the Museum of Contemporary Arts in Vigo, Spain.
