The exhibition ‘Soglia/Common Acts’ curated by Francis Offman, features his site-specific interventions alongside a selection of works from the Silvia Fiorucci Collection.

Pictured here is one of the exhibition’s rooms, where Francis Offman brings Sol Calero’s immersive installation into dialogue with works by Mauricio Paniagua and Tony Moxham, alongside an iconic salt work by Pier Paolo Calzolari and an intimate work by Carla Accardi. Together, these distinct artistic practices create an intergenerational conversation on materiality, memory, colour, and the ways in which space can hold both personal and collective histories.

Come visit us! 💛 The show is open until September 23, by appointment. For bookings, please write to: visit@societadelleapi.org 🐝

Un honor participar en esta exposición que recorre una gran parte de la historia de la cerámica en México. Muy agradecido con Ana Elena Mallet @madamemallet por la invitación y un gusto compartir con colegas que admiro muchísimo.

Aquí una selección de algunas de mis piezas favoritas ✨

Barro y cerámica en México. Poéticas de lo utilitario, la cual propone un análisis y un recorrido por el devenir de la cerámica en México, explorando sus transiciones desde la época prehispánica hasta su consolidación como lenguaje artístico contemporáneo.

A través de 745 piezas de 95 ceramistas, talleres y estudios de todo el país, la muestra abordará la manera en que el barro no es simplemente arte ni artesanía: es un lenguaje que trasciende categorías. Sus formas, texturas y colores son palabras que narran historias de identidad y cambios. Las piezas moldeadas por las manos de innumerables generaciones de ceramistas, desde artesanos hasta jóvenes diseñadores, han sido vehículo de lo cotidiano y lo trascendente.

Pedestal tables now @agoprojects! These two figurative ceramic tables draw their inspiration from mexico’s rich collective prehispanic history. They are hand-pieced from slip-cast bricks found on the streets of CDMX, and decorated with a mass of hand-sculpted figurative detail.

We’re super excited to share our new collection of ceramic works today @agoprojects in CDMX. “Hardware” is inspired by 20th century design, especially post war production, when the lines between handmade and machine-made blurred. Every piece in this collection is handmade and hand-assembled, but with an eye towards removing the human hand. The analog ceramic decals covering these works are inspired by commercial printed tile we saw while visiting Mumbai and Tamil Nadu in southern India, and by 20th century tilework that still exists in CDMX!

#tbt Brazil in October. São Paulo’s stunning @itaucultural houses one of the most impressive collections of colonial prints and artwork in the world. These often eccentric snapshots of life (and wildlife) in Brazil are both a record of colonial propaganda and also of the country’s dazzlingly unique people and nature

Hand-carving contrasted with premium acrylic shag gives The Jungle Rug by MT Objects @mtobjects its depth. Each contour is cut to create a clear separation between figure and field, adding structure and tactility to the design. Rich, saturated dyes bring the pattern forward, giving the jaguar and its shifting spots a sharper presence.

See our previous posts for more on this 2017 collaboration with MT Objects.

MT Objects @mtobjects is the collaborative practice of Tony Moxham (left) and Mauricio Paniagua (right), who have lived and worked in Mexico City since 2005. Their work draws on a deep familiarity with Mesoamerican pre-Hispanic cultures and a long-standing interest in using simple materials in inventive ways. They move between art and design, often treating objects as sculptural studies rather than functional products.

In 2017 Odabashian collaborated with them on a limited edition piece, The Jungle Rug (see our previous post).
