Descripción de la Exposición
Form Follows Energy, the inaugural exhibition of ALGO, the cultural arm of LAGO in Mexico City’s Chapultepec Forest opens today, Wednesday, 9th February; 6pm-12am.
Form follows energy is a maxim that conveys a reconnection with the logic of creation and consequently, through a chain reaction, traces the history of what we conceive as time, from the Big Bang (energy) to current life on Earth (form).
Form follows function is, to date, the premise of an individualistic species, which makes use of the planet as a controllable and extractable resource. Form follows energy, on the other hand, implies aligning oneself with the logic of creation and actively helping the next link in the chain of reactions to be in tune with vital energy.
This exhibition follows the logic of both syllogisms. Through the work of 27 artists from the programs of OMR and joségarcía,mx, the show presents a sequence of symbolic moments that illustrate the point in which we find ourselves now, where we came from, and hints at opportunities to update our operating system.
The layout of the exhibition is cumulative from one thematic hub to the next, until completing a narrative where the traveler returns to the origin, transformed.
