LATIONAMERICAN ART IN KÁRSTICA'24
The Museum of Photography of the Antonio Perez Foundation, at its headquarters in the town of Huete, Cuenca, exhibits part of the results of the artistic residence held at Kárstica Espacio de Creación, in which, during last June, a total of six artists have developed their projects. Among them, there is a strong presence of emerging Latin American names, with up to four representatives. Costa Rica's Mat Kar, winner of an award at the call held by the Spanish Cultural Center in Costa Rica, focuses on the ancestral connection around the plastic research work she carries out on the Paleolithic venus.
For their part, the Puerto Rican group Colectivo Revolú, formed by Marcos Daniel Vicéns, Andrés Meléndez and Miguel Ángel Feba, show their production, which highlights an attempt at a natural union between the tropicalisms of their native Puerto Rico and the geological aspects of the mountains of the Spanish province of Cuenca, which has also provided the necessary materials to execute their works during the residency. Parallel to the technique and the environment, his works also approach social factors such as the processes of climatic conversion or depopulation in rural areas. The exhibition is completed by the works of the Spanish artist Jacqueline Bonacic-Doric and the Madrid artist Black Butter.
Kárstica'24 can be visited until July 14 at FAP Huete – Museum of Photography, Plaza Cristo, 1, Huete, Spain.

GENESIS AND BORICUA RESONANCES IN REVOLÚ
The birth of a new collective is always good news, and it is so for several reasons. Firstly, because of the existence of collective dynamics that bring together different points of view and, second, because, in a didactic way, it contributes to illustrate and understand the current cartographies of art. For the Revolú collective, formed by Andrés Meléndez (San Juan, Puerto Rico, 1996), Miguel Ángel Feba (San Juan, Puerto Rico, 1994) and Marcos Daniel Vicéns (Bayamón, Puerto Rico, 1996), their first exhibition experience is the result of an artistic residency in which, almost blindly, they have been able to build those specific ties to start from the individual and reach the group identity.
