			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Guiados por las coincedencias<br />
Por Jimena Peña</p>
<p>Vivimos en la Serendipia.  Esas casualidades no tan casuales, las coincidencias por sorpresa y encontrar lo inesperado, se han convertido en una dinámica para que Cynthia Lawson Jaramillo y Klaus Fruchtnis, se dejen llevar ante la espontaneidad misma que les ofrece el Espacio Urbano.   Para que surja este fenómeno, se debe tener un objetivo y dejar que las cosas sucedan; en este caso, éste foco podría ser la palabra que ellos semanalmente han elegido durante los últimos 3 años como motor de su proyecto Cross Urban.   Para que la casualidad los encuentre, los artistas han tenido que estar “allá afuera”, en el Espacio Urbano, en 63 ciudades, en continuo movimiento y en constante domesticación de lo inesperado. </p>
<p>Es ahí, en ese movimiento, donde el espíritu colaborativo que ha acompañado a Cross Urban, se ha extendido a quienes hoy viajamos dinamizando el proyecto para realizar su gira itinerante.  Es ahí donde el juego se torna más inclusivo porque casualmente los lunes definimos un objetivo semanal hacia el foco expositivo.  Así permitimos que las coincidencias nos encuentren y cuando estamos “allá afuera”,  en el Espacio Urbano de 4 ciudades, cada uno en su especialidad y sin ni siquiera conocernos físicamente, hemos dejado que surja nuevamente la Serendipia.</p>
<p>Vivimos en la co-creación.   A un ritmo vertiginoso hemos aportado conocimientos e ilusiones para co-producir la primera de varias paradas expositivas.  Hemos trazado una ruta (Nueva York, Tokio, Madrid, Londres y Bogotá), pero al tiempo hemos tejido una red que no sabemos a donde nos llevará.   ¿Ante la Serendipia?  lo mejor es la valentía y la acción inmediata porque las ideas son frágiles y se pueden esfumar al instante mismo de haber sido creadas.  Hoy, somos solo cinco colombianos, cada uno desde un punto del globo,  pero representamos un grupo de seguidores que comparten interés por el espacio urbano.  Inspirados por la sencilla metodología colaborativa de nuestros artistas, re-pensamos los modelos actuales de gestión e invitamos a vibrar a la academia, a instituciones, al mercado, los órganos diplomáticos y a diversos colectivos,  para que co-creemos nuevas iniciativas en torno al apropiamiento del Espacio Urbano.  </p>
<p>Vivimos en la innovación.  Los estímulos que tenemos como equipo multidisciplinar, multi-presencial y multi-tarea, nos llevan a la recursividad de un proyecto que se impulsa con ideas de vanguardia de la mano de técnicas virtuales propias de nuestra contemporaneidad.  Los hilos de unión entre los artistas y su equipo gestor, crean una experiencia grupal que está trascendiendo la individualidad característica del mundo del arte.  </p>
<p>Estas vivencias, como por supuesto el crecimiento plástico de Cross Urban durante su año de itinerancia, serán el pilar de un proyecto editorial.  Por ahora, hemos llegado a París de la mano de los artistas para conocer el lenguaje común que han logrado en una selección de 23 trípticos que presentamos en este catálogo.   El legado de es esta primera exposición es iniciar una amplia conversación al apropiarnos del significado de cada palabra elegida y entendiendo su imagen como embajadora del trazo de cada artista; para así encontrar las interesantes similitudes en torno al lugar, el tono, las formas, la armonía, el color, el mensaje, pero sobre todo, la magia de dialogar con un proyecto artístico global que convive a diario con las coincidencias. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Itinerant Cross Urban &#8211; Paris<br />
Text written by Estefania Sokoloff</p>
<p>Paris, the city of light and of urban landscapes frozen in time, is the perfect backdrop for the launch of Itinerant Cross Urban, a photographic project with important international dimensions. If we could trace a city protocol, Paris, without a doubt, would top the lists for its historical tradition and great cultural institutions. Additionally, it has a well-versed audience, who is also intelligent, sagacious, demands quality and exquisiteness, and does not stand improvisation. The reasons and references that link us to the city are multiple, but it is necessary to explain the why of the decision and for it we will mention some of the particularities inherent to the structure of Itinerant Cross Urban.</p>
<p>The starring roles of our story are Klaus Fruchtnis, Colombian, artist, traveler, expansive and in charge at the side of Cynthia Lawson Jaramillo, Colombian, artist, traveler, educator, and in charge. The script consists of the application of a methodology to develop the contents and of a system for conceptualizing defended by the continuity in the communication between the characters. The secondary roles are played by us, the professionals traveling as curators, critics, cultural producers and our inseparable Web 2.0 which allows us to ignore the geographical distances that separate us. </p>
<p>The story begins in 2008 with the development of a working methodology which is simple in its framing yet infinite in possibilities, which has a wide route as a starting point, international and inclusive because collaborative work while immersed in an individualistic world is in and of itself, a win-win. It consists of the visual interpretation of an unusual word picked at random from www.merriam-webster.com through two photographic responses. A visual play in which the individual characteristics dig their own grooves while the collaborative principle enriches the result in that it does not represent the end but the means via which the goal is reached. A work that demands continuity and which harmoniously integrates the particular interests of two artists committed to their practice. The ever-changing backdrops according to the mobility of the authors, enriches the proposal by continually renewing the rhetoric for each triptych and establishing new paradigms that are made visible in the interpretive ability of each work. In 2009 with the printing of the first book, we sailed the ocean of conceptualization while holding hands with the photographs, accompanied by the certainty and security of a project framed by contemporaneity and the solidity offered by these two serious artistic courses, observers of urbanity.</p>
<p>Paris, our first stop represents a great step for the future development of this trip. Not only because it concretizes the reaches of a discipline evidenced in a portfolio with more than 100 triptychs, but that additionally involves the professional action of a group of Cross Urban lovers.</p>
<p>There is a peculiarity with regards to the learning – an inescapable reference when considering this work formula. A routine becomes a habit and a habit becomes a discipline. This is Cross Urban – a discipline that itinerates around the world exhibiting the relationship between the visual and the written language.</p>
<p>Considering the multilingual character of Cross Urban, its curation contemplates, for the Paris catalogue, to only highlight a word that in addition to being easily understood in different languages, is ambassador of each artist’s mark, witness of their visual acuity y additionally carrier of the conceptual character of the body of work. </p>
<p>inexorable \i-NEK-suh-ruh-bul\ adjective<br />
not to be persuaded, moved, or stopped: relentless</p>
<p>About the images: the majesty present in the architectural forms that pose in front of the camera as urban models. The importance of the multi-reflection as an element that highlights the landscape quality, widely treated, in the artists’ work.</p>
<p>The sonority, the silence, the gaze’s rhythm and firmness and the accompaniment of a definition that describes the tenacity of a group of Colombians passionate about the same objective.</p>
<p>Our trip contemplates five additional destinations and one great editorial project that will become the visual manifestation of a group of words dragged by the wind. Travel with us.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Эта урбанистическая система, которую принято называть «городом», весьма  многосложена. Обычно зависимость такова: чем крупнее город, тем он  сложнее. Впрочем, размер нельзя считать единственным фактором,  обуславливающим многосложность. Структура также имеет значение. Конечно,  тут можно возразить, что размер и структура взаимозависимы и чем  крупнее что-либо становится, тем, соответственно, сложнее его структура,  но в отношении города все это одновременно и верно, и неверно.   Известно, что чем крупнее становится город, тем сложнее структура  городской среды. В то же время, в небольшом городе также можно  заблудиться – иначе говоря, его структура тоже может быть сложной, в то  время как размеры не велики.</p>
<p>Помимо вышеописанных факторов, система любого города обусловливается и  некоторыми индивидуальными особенностями. На город влияют среди многих  других факторов его географическое положение, его жители, администрация.  Все это делает город уникальным, неповторимым.</p>
<p>Возникает вопрос: а что представляют собой наши взаимоотношения с  городом? Город, в котором мы живем, нам знаком. Мы его прочувствовали,  видели его днем, ночью, знаем, как происходит в нем смена времен года.  Иначе говоря, он стал нашей средой обитания – местом, которое мы знаем,  частью которого мы стали. Мы легко в нем ориентируемся. Нам знакомо то,  что мы видим, и обычно нам не нужно никакое навигационное устройство, но  даже если возникает необходимость им воспользоваться, мы очень быстро  определяем, куда идти.</p>
<p>Знакомое нам место не абстрактно. Через наши знания оно приобретает  очертания. А что происходит, если нас поместить в среду, абсолютно нам  не знакомую, место, где мы раньше не бывали? Мы тут же чувствуем свою  незащищенность, и это чувство вызвано нашим представлением об этом новом  месте, как о некой абстракции.  Эта абстрактность – следствие нашей  оторванности от места: мы не ориентируемся на местности и – что еще  более усугубляет ситуацию – не знаем языка, на котором здесь говорят.  Абстрактность означает оторванность и как результат – отчуждённость.  Однако чтобы познакомиться с местом, установить взаимоотношения с ним,  главное – привязка, которой можно добиться через согласованную систему  взаимодействий. Эта система взаимодействий вырабатывается исключительно  посредством взаимопонимания. Если человек и урбанистическое пространство  не соответствуют друг другу, понимания не будет, и, таким образом, не  будет выстроена согласованная система взаимодействий.</p>
<p>В этом случае роль города и собственные нужды должны быть полностью  переосмыслены. Для человека, не знакомого с городом, он становится чужим  местом, далеким от  интеллектуальных сфер и низведенным до  эмоционального уровня. Сторонний наблюдатель не может полагаться на  интеллектуальные выводы, а только на эмоциональные суждения: визуальные,  осязательные и т.д.</p>
<p>Здесь возникает вопрос: как мы воспринимаем городскую среду?  Человеческий мозг лучше всего оперирует символами. Как подтверждают  археологические находки, наши предки пытались выражать свои мысли с  помощью пиктографического письма, т.е. через символы. Можно сделать  вывод, что высказывания, переданные с помощью символов – наиболее  естественны для человеческого мозга. Последовательность символов  складывается в код, разгадать значение которого пытается автор.</p>
<p>Городская среда и человеческий разум, как через свои работы стремится  показать Клаус Фручтнис (Klaus Fruchtnis), функционируют на основе  различных кодов и состоят из кодов – одновременно и доступных для  понимания, и с трудом понятных тем, кто с ними не знаком. Фручтнис  исследует, как коды образовывают новый язык ориентирования на местности,  и оспаривает изложенное выше мнение об абстрактности незнакомого места.  Он использует город в качестве художественного ресурса, как живописец  использует холст для иллюстрирования бессознательного процесса поиска.</p>
<p>Фручтнис также экспериментирует с образами, тем самым ставя под сомнение  наш способ восприятия места. Он использует сложные техники  визуализации, как, например, в своем 3d изображении Московского Кремля,  одного из символов России. Художник по сути разрушает привычный образ  Кремля, раскладывает его на простейшие визуальные компоненты, бросая  вызов восприятию зрителя. Как все в этом мире состоит из молекул, так и  Кремль в интерпретации Фручтнис состоит из мелких точек, которые  складываются в единый образ только если смотреть на изображение издали.  Он открывает глубинный, скрытый код, являющийся основой нашего  восприятия конкретного места – как оно становится нам знакомым или  привычным. Это исследование указанного понятия визуальности и узнавания и  есть ведущая нить выставки. Художник исследует наше видение связи места  и его изучения.</p>
<p>Так как исследование какой-либо территории чаще всего случайная попытка,  то по своей сути оно произвольно. Тем не менее чувственные стимулы,  символы и коды могут исподволь указать человеку правильную дорогу и  превратить произвольность в бессознательно управляемый процесс.  Поскольку город переполнен символами и кодами, можно утверждать, что  произвольность и случайность в нем исключены, вместо них –  бессознательное направление разума. Это еще раз показывает, что символы –  неотъемлемая часть городской среды и играют важную роль в процессе ее  познания. Благодаря им абстрактность исчезает, появляется смысл, и это  делает символы важной частью городской среды, в которой они вытесняют  имеющиеся знания и стимулируют процесс непосредственного понимания.</p>
<p>Существенное отличие карт в том, что они не могут читаться произвольно  или абстрактно, они жестко структурированы и представляют двухмерное  пространство. Поскольку любая территория всегда трехмерна, Фручтнис  создает из карт трехмерные объекты,  тем самым ставя под сомнение их  пространственные характеристики, и в то же время делая их непригодными  для использования по изначально определенному назначению. Они теряют  практическую ценность. Они становятся инструментом иного исследования, в  котором они утрачивают практическую составляющую, становясь частью игры  в образы. Карты сами становятся объектами исследования, в котором они  превращены в трехмерные объекты.  Они приобретают рельефность. Им  предали форму и тем самым, можно сказать, дополнительно усложнили, в то  время как изначальная функция – утеряна; они также становятся, как и  незнакомый город, абстрактным объектом и новой формой кода самих себя.</p>
<p>Эта выставка  – попытка исследовать безграничность значений,  содержащихся в кодах, и делает вызов устоявшемуся представлению о  пространстве и его восприятии.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>C.O.D.E</strong><br />
Common for an Open Digital Environment<br />
by Frank Feltens</p>
<p>This ambiguous urban entity, commonly called “the city” is utterly complex. The common formula is, the bigger it gets the more its complexity increases accordingly. However, mere size is not the single determining factor in complexity. Similarly, structure renders an entity complex. While it may be argued that size and structure are intertwined, or the bigger something becomes, the more complex its structure is, this is both true and false for the city. It is a fact that an urban environment&#8217;s structural complexity witnesses a drastic increase the more it grows. Still, a small urban complex may also be utterly confusing and difficult to navigate – in other words its structure is complex, while it is still small in size.</p>
<p>Apart from the dual relationship above, any city is strongly determined by its individual specifics. A city is subject to its geography, its inhabitants, its administration, among many other determining factors. All of them shape it into a singular, characteristic entity, not to be found identically anywhere else.</p>
<p>This raises the question, what is our relationship with the city? The city we live in, we know. We have experienced it, have seen it in broad daylight, at night, we have seen its seasons. In other words, it has become our habitat – a place we know, a place we belong. We navigate freely, knowingly through the streets of quarters we are familiar with. We <em>know</em> what we see and we are usually not in need of navigational devices, and if we are we quickly determine our way by using them.</p>
<p>A place we know is not abstract. It becomes concrete through our knowledge of it. However, what if we were placed in an environment fully unknown to us, a place we have never been before. We are immediately insecure and this insecurity is triggered by our perception of this new place as abstract. This abstractness is triggered by our detachment from the place, as we lack knowledge of landmarks and it is even further increased by not being familiar with the language spoken. Abstractness means detachment, and its result is alienation. On the contrary, to establish a relationship or familiarity with a place, the main prerequisite is attachment, which can only be achieved through establishing common mode of operation. This mode founds itself solely on mutual understanding. If a person and the urban space are not corresponding, there will be no understanding and thus they will not establish a common mode.</p>
<p>In this case, the role of the city and one&#8217;s own needs to be fundamentally reconsidered. To the person not familiar with a city, it becomes an alien place, far removed from the intellectual sphere and reduced to the sphere of senses. The unknowledgeable spectator cannot rely on intellectual considerations, but on sensual stimuli – visual, haptic, auditory to name only a few.</p>
<p>This arises the question of how we perceive our urban environment. The human mind functions best with symbols. As archaeological findings prove to us, early humans sought to express themselves by means of simplified pictorial expressions, i.e. symbols. This enables the conclusion that symbolic expressions are the means most inherent to the human brain for achieving mutual understanding. A combination of symbols forms a <em>code</em>, for whose meaning this exhibition searches.</p>
<p>Urban space and the human mind, as Klaus Fruchtnis seeks to convey through his artwork, fundamentally functions with and consists of various codes – both readily intelligible, as well as hard to grasp for those unfamiliar with them. Fruchtnis inquires upon how codes form a new, partly mutual language for navigation and therefore questions the above discussed abstract notion of an unknown place. He uses the city as an artistic resource, like a painter uses a canvas to illustrate the unconscious process of exploration.</p>
<p>Fruchtnis also experiments with visuality, thus questioning the way we perceive a place. Employing sophisticated techniques of visual representation, such as a 3dimensional depiction of the Kremlin, a Russian symbol and landmark of Moscow. The artist literally destroys this symbol and reduces it to its basic visual components in order to challenge the viewer&#8217;s perception of it. Just as everything is composed of molecules, Fruchtnis reduces this landmark&#8217;s depiction to small dots that, only when viewed from afar, reveal the full picture. He therefore makes visible the underlying invisible <em>code</em> that is the fundamental aspect of how we perceive a place – and how it becomes familiar or common to us. This challenging of given notions of visuality and familiarity is a continuous current of this exhibition. The artist investigates our vision in connection to a place and exploration of it.</p>
<p>Since exploration is a per chance endeavor, it is inherently arbitrary. However, sensual stimuli, symbols and codes might unconsciously lead the person on and alter the arbitrariness into an unconsciously guided process. As a city is overflowing with such elements of stimulation and symbolic meaning, one can argue that arbitrariness and chance is ruled out by the unconscious direction of the mind. This again indicates that symbols are indispensable and their relation to urban space is of utter importance for our understanding of it. They diffuse abstractness and infuse meaning, which makes them a crucial part of urban space in that they substitute prior knowledge and foster immediate understanding.</p>
<p>Essential to non-abstract and non-arbitrary exploration are maps, a substantially 2dimensional rendition of a spatially complex entity – a place. Since a place is always a 3dimensional thing, Fruchtnis creates 3dimensional bodies from maps, thus questioning their spatial characteristics, while at the same time rendering them dysfunctional. Their original, practicable usage is voided. They become a tool of exploration of a different sort in that they loose function while being transformed in a play with vision. The maps themselves thus become an object of exploration in that they now too are a 3dimensional body. They have gained topographical features. They are given structure and therefore, one might say, their complexity increases and additionally, since their original function is rendered void, these maps also become, just like an unknown city, abstract entities and a new form of code in itself.</p>
<p>This exhibition explores the vastness of meaning that lies within codes and challenges given notions of space and our perception of it.</p>
