2004. CHART. IDENTITY PROJECT Madrid Abierto (451 Studio / published texts)

BOOK PUBLISHED TEXT

451 / Aitor Méndez y Fernando A. Cienfuegos

The text that follows was written in 2004 as justification for the graphic identity design for Madrid Abierto. As in other of our projects, there is a reflection on the client and another on the work process, in this case the process of preparing the explanations given to a client (or to oneself). These are often prepared after the design work, although presented to the client as the guidelines followed. In the best of cases, they are prepared at the same time as the design work, altering the latter and the latter altering the first as one goes along.

From this point of view, the premises set out are not the same and therefore lack relevance in obtaining a high quality project. The work can culminate in good or bad results regardless of these initial ideas and, in this case, we show how this initial inability does not get in the way of obtaining good results.

INTERNAL INCOHERENCE

Public art has two things: art and the public. You might think “what a silly remark, it is public because it is in the fucking street”, and you would be right, although you could curb your language.

Thinking about this tricky issue, the idea of the public began to acquire a certain obsessive insistence.

Why? My psychiatrist might ask himself. And he would also be right in asking this question, after all that’s why he spent long summer hours knuckling down, missing out for ever on some of the most delicious moments of youth.

Let’s leave him alone to come up with the answer while we concentrate on our work. Hence, we see the public behaving as an individual, i.e., the public is one and always the same, just as the river is always the same, even if the water that runs through it is continuously changing.

This public, made up of undifferentiated individuals, of hidden identifies, is omnipresent, like God. Yes my friend, He is everywhere, or practically everywhere. He goes from one end to the other, strolling through the city or talking on the mobile, in the car or the underground, up and down or from the centre to the outskirts and, in the meantime, the little eyes of the undifferentiated individuals act like sensory organs scattered throughout the body like the suction cups of an octopus.

“What a disgusting example” you might think (if you haven’t, do so now before you go on).

It’s not that disgusting. Let’s show more respect for our public. It is a very smart public. It stretches its tentacles wherever it suits it. It establishes traffic flows with surprising speed to places where it can get goods or food for free. It is captivated by any commemorative plaque announcing the location of a work of contemporary art.

“O.K., but that definition is valid for the public in general and not just for our public art public”, you should be thinking. I take that but, for the moment, I will ignore it.

On another front, we have a suggestion by Jorge to use the letter A, present in the words “mAdrid” and “Abierto”, coinciding with the fact that the public space destined for the exhibition of the work is triangular shaped.

This outlandish idea, combined with our no less absurd obsession with the public, has established the basis for the work realised. Let this be a healthy example of reconciliation of interests between the client and the supplier.

Let this also serve as an example of how to produce a serious, fun graphic identify that meets the communication standards and exudes poetry (pity that we have to say this ourselves) from ludicrous, intuitive and contradictory bases.

“You’re going to drive me mad” you might say now.

I said the same to my psychiatrist and it cost me fortune.

Aitor Méndez.

451 is a group project produced by people working in different fields: music, graphic design, cinema, etc...

For some years, Aitor Méndez and Fernando Cienfuegos have been searching for new graphic languages which aspire to be a reflexion of contemporary thought systems.

For MADRID ABIERTO they have broken away from the classic idea of the stable, unchangeable logo in an attempt to evoke a certain atmosphere by relating the elements of identity in a different way in each case, and according to the expression desired at a given moment.

2004. PRESS RELEASE. Etoy CORPORATION

 etoy.ART-INVASION ON PLAZA COLONTHE LEGENDARY ART CORPORATION "etoy" INVADES HISPANIC MARKET TERRITORYOFFICIAL PRESS RELEASE

 In the context of ARCO 04, one of the five most important commercial art fairs in the world, etoy takes its aggressive business model for high risk art investors to the next level. Invited as guest artists in the "Madrid Abierto" program etoy.CORPORATION installs its mobile head quarter, studio and internet node in the heart of Madrid to perform a commercial experiment on the edge of reality.

Two etoy.CARGO-TANKS will land on Plaza Colon during the night of January 29th/30th 2004. Touch down is expected for 00:00:00 CET. FOTO OPPORTUNITY: Crew members, etoy.TANKS, giant cranes, police escort and machinery will be available between 23:30:00 and 02:00:00 CET. etoy, famous for subversive PR stunts like the digital hijack (1,5 million online art hostages in 1996) or the online clash with the American 10 billion dollar corporation eToys inc. in late 1999 (TOYWAR, with 4 billion dollars the most expensive performance in art history), won several international art awards and regularly appears in popular media channels such as CNN, WIRED NEWS, WASHINGTON POST, NZZ, TATE PUBLISHING, EL PAIS etc. Between February 5th and 22nd 2004 15 etoy.AGENTS from Italy, the USA, Germany, Switzerland, Belgium and Spain aggregate in the physical world  to operate a spectacular, living art installation on Plaza Colon. Dressed in their uniforms and equipped with identical high tech tools the etoy.CREW will conduct an art industry analysis to explore the acceptance for a different kind of culture economy. The  fundamental  question is: are collectors, galleries and the Spanish population ready to move away from traditional object ownership (paintings, photography and sculptures) and authorship (masters / stars) in order to test an alternative art production system agent.MARCOS / etoy.CFO: "it is time to question the established models of cultureconomical exchange". THE EXPERIMENT: etoy.CORPORATION offers to participate in an open artwork that is not defined or produced yet. Collectors visiting the ARCO art fair (Feb 12. to 16. 2004) as well as common people in the city (on Plaza Colon from Feb. 5th to 22nd) who normally don't buy art will have the opportunity to purchase etoy.

SHARES. Six different investment packages (from 2 euros to 30.000 euros) allow participation in a very special art work.

etoy.CORPORATION will use all investments acquired in Madrid to create and document concrete cultural value in the Hispanic market within the next 5 years (scale and locations depend on the volume and strategic partners). For their investment the cultural shareholders get the right to vote on project proposals and resolutions. etoy.CORPORATION is organizing the development process and serves as the information hub to coordinate the world wide planning and production. etoy's advanced internet voting system, specific etoy.BLOGS and etoy.CHATS as well as many years of experience guarantee maximum impact (TRACK RECORD: www.etoy.com). The new owners of etoy (already 2500 people participate world wide) will finance, produce and control the Spanish etoy.PROJECT. Their contribution and ownership is certified by a shareholder card and/or a unique etoy.SHARE-CERTIFICATE (see samples on  http://secure.etoy.com/ or on www.etoy.com) that gives them access to internal reports and voting procedures for all future etoy.OPERATIONS. disclaimer: etoy.CORPORATION is a global corporate sculpture to share culture profits instead of maximizing financial wealth. etoy is a registered trade mark of the etoy.VENTURE association. Past success cannot guarantee future performance. Share redemption strictly limited.

The INFOMAB2010 project originated as a way of promoting the MADRID ABIERTO programme in the centre of Madrid by giving out information in la Plaza de Cibeles. As a temporary visitor, the small and slightly elevated pavilion seems to be in Madrid only for a small period of time.

INFOMAB2010 is a place for people to pass through and to stay at the same time. It hosts small events and also deliver information to the pedestrians that walk along the busy boulevard of Paseo de Recoletos. The project is the product of an ingenious approach that intends to create a representative space with minimal economic and material resources, to welcome visitors.

The pavilion is a cylindrical industrial deposit that has been drilled in order to create two big accesses and multiple small gaps (portholes). Its location, between the ready-made and the urban installation, gives the device a solid and homey image at the same time.

During the day, both accesses create a magical atmosphere of light, and, at dusk, internal light radiate towards the street through dozens of open gaps.

Kawamura-ganjavian has conceived this unique project as an experiment dealing with the architectural possibilities that recycled prefabricated elements of FP (fibreglass polyester) may have.
