Gotelé + Project for the recovery of an art gallery's smooth walls
Site-specific intervention, book, 21 x 29.7 cm, 5 signed copies
A solo show at Twin Gallery. The mural paint Gotelé is applied to the vertical surfaces of the gallery. Gotelé is a special type of plaster that is sprayed directly on to a wall or ceiling and was widely spread in Spain during the times of extensive urban growth. After completion, the walls return to their sterile state, representing an unproductive process that ultimately leads to nothing. The book "Project for the recovery of the gallery's smooth walls" presents an unofficial narrative that explores the connections between the mural paint Gotelé and the extensive urban developments in Spain throughout the last century.
A project in collaboration with Paula García–Masedo, promoted by Caniche Editorial. Pictures by David Díez.
