Albarrán Bourdais is pleased to announce its participation in Around Video 2022, room 309. The gallery is delighted to showcase an outstanding video made by Iván Argote called Paseo, 2022. The artist will be presenting Paseo at Centre Pompidou for Prix Marcel Duchamp starting October 3rd.

Paseo shows how the statue of Christopher Columbus, which crowns the square of the same name, is removed and driven in a truck through Madrid until it is driven away from the city. This performance on wheels puts in tangible terms the posibility of transforming public space, leaving aside the traditional war and colonial tributes and also confronts the passerby with a kind of hyper realism of change; perhaps something like this could happen, now or in the near future.
