PABLO DELGADO OPENS TOMORROW, by Dibbs 45 on Sept 24, 2015 22:15:24 GMT 1, OPENS TOMORROW MORNING
Pablo Delgado
24 Sep 2015 to 01 Nov 2015
โOpeningโ: 24 September 2015
Howard Griffin Gallery London
โthe simulacrum is never that which conceals the truth - it is the truth which conceals that there is none.โ
On 10th September 2015, Howard Griffin Gallery London will present a groundbreaking exhibition and event by Mexican artist Pablo Delgado. Opens Tomorrow Morning will be an immersive conceptual installation in which a large scale fictional gallery will be constructed within the walls of Howard Griffin Gallery. Viewers will be presented with a highly experimental, theatrical space in which the making of an exhibition becomes the exhibition itself.
Pablo Delgado is a conceptual artist from Mexico. Delgado is concerned with minimising and reducing his work to its smallest expression, often employing the use of negative space, light and shadow to explore absence. At the same time, his work focuses on interaction, engagement and an active participation with the viewer. Opens Tomorrow Morning acts as a sequel to the artistโs previous exhibition, Even Less. At the same time, it represents a turning point in the artist's oeuvre as he moves away from the primacy of the art object towards an ever increasing conceptualism.
Opens Tomorrow Morning will be a constructed fiction in the form of a gallery within a gallery. Within the Inside Gallery, Delgado has staged a fictional exhibition, simulacrum. As they move through a series of enclosed spaces, the viewer is invited to discover an exhibition that 'opens tomorrow morning', as if they have stumbled in the night before the installation is complete. Visitors must negotiate the space in almost complete darkness as the exhibition builds around them.
Opens Tomorrow Morning is self-referential, interrogating the role of the artist, gallery and viewer in the context of the exhibition and the production of meaning. By creating a fictional gallery within a gallery, Delgado is able to conceptualise these interconnected strands within a surreal, absurdist environment. Within this environment, the viewer becomes an active participant whose presence and actions complete the work.

PABLO DELGADO OPENS TOMORROW, by Dibbs 45 on Sept 24, 2015 23:16:07 GMT 1, Opened last week mate. 2 weeks ago in fact. STILL owe me for 15 days work and other stuff. Maybe time they sorted that out!!! Until then all i can say is i wouldn't.
Opened last week mate. 2 weeks ago in fact. STILL owe me for 15 days work and other stuff. Maybe time they sorted that out!!! Until then all i can say is i wouldn't. I was told the opening night was the 24th September, so bit confusing as their website says both. Have you emailed Franscesca about money owed?She's always very helpful. On another matter I know people are waiting for prints, me included. They are currently going over the proofs again as they are not happy with them, and want to get them right. |

Tartarus clearly has beef with them, that's fine and understood.
However I don't see how that makes them a gallery that is bad to deal with? I have had many transactions with them and never had a problem.
Yes there is a long delay on the Mehdi prints if you take the time to email them they will explain. Mostly it is because they do not want to put out sub standard prints, personally I think that is to be commended. If anyone really can't live without a print because of a delay I am sure they will refund the money.
Anyway this thread is meant to be about the Delgado show. Anyone been?

I went to the last Delgado show and the viewing platform that was constructed were quite unique. This seems a little similar. I can't make for the next week but would be interested to know if any one else has been or going.
