Cecilia Bengolea (Buenos Aires, 1979), works on a range of media including performance, video and sculpture. Using dance as a tool and a medium for radical empathy and emotional exchange. Infused with the symbolic energies found within nature and relationships, her compositions are formed around ideas of the body – both individually and collectively – as a medium. Bengolea develops a broad artistry where she sees movement, dance and performance as animated sculpture.

Bengolea has collaborated with dancehall artists such as Craig Black Eagle, Bombom DHQ, Damion BG, and with artists Dominique Gonzalez Forster and Jeremy Deller. Her collaborative work with French choreographer François Chaignaud, Pâquerette (2005-2008) and Sylphides (2009), have earned several awards such as the Award de la Critique de Paris in 2010 and the Young Artist Prize at the Gwangju Biennial in 2014. They have also co-created dance pieces for their dance company as well as for the Ballet de Lyon (2013), the Ballet de Lorraine (2014) and Pina Bausch Tanztheater Wuppertal.

Cecilia Bengolea’s work is a part of numerous public and private collections including TBA21 Accademy, Mire Fond Cantonal de La Ville de Geneve, The Vinyl Factory, Le CNAP, Le Consortium, Peter Handschin and Martin Hatebur, Fiorucci Arts and Trusts, Tank Shanghai, Fundacion Arco, Jimena Blazquez Bonte,  Fernando Arriola.

Interdisciplinary Artist, Carles Congost graduated in Fine Arts from the Universidad de Barcelona, 1994. Carles Congost’s work combines different mediums and supports including video, music, drawing and photography. In his work there are constant references to the world of comics, consumer music, fantastic film and television culture. The decidedly low-tech character of his early work gradually disappeared moving into productions that stand out for their ever increasing technical complexity. He has exhibited in some of the most important art centres and galleries both nationally and internationally, such as MoMA, Palais de Tokyo, Fundación Miró, the MNAC Reina Sofía and the Hamburger Bahnhof in Berlin.

Towards the end of the 70s, Serrano began her artistic studies at the Dolores de la Barra Art Workshop, under the teaching of Javier Arévalo, Robin Bond and José Feher. Since then, her artistic activities have been incessant, and encompass different disciplines such as painting, found object, sculpture, video, and installation.

Serrano’s work is loaded with great personal political undertones; depicting at the same time sexism and gender violence. The artist performs metaphors around the body, the domestic, the femininity and how it can be oppressing. Serrano does so by using different materials, ranging from steel to ceramics and fabrics.

Serrano has had numerous solo shows in museums and galleries such as Museo Amparo, Puebla; Museo Marco de Monterrey, Monterrey; Sala de Arte Público Siqueiros, Mexico City; Laboratorio de Arte Alameda, Mexico City; Michael Kohler Arts Center Sheboygan, Wisconsin, and Museo de Arte Moderno, Buenos Aires. She has also participated in group exhibitions at El Museo del Barrio, New York; Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris; Seoul Museum of Art, Seoul, and Museo Reina Sofía, Madrid.

Fito Conesa studied Fine Arts at the University of Barcelona, the city where he lives and works. With a multifaceted work that encompasses installation, video and sound exploration, some of his works are conceived as an exhibition of the artist himself and his geographical context of origin; others incorporate different elements of cultural history and the contemporary world; and others dissect the everyday.

Since 2008, he has exhibited in spaces such as the Aparador del Museu Abelló in Mollet del Vallès (2008), CaixaForum in Tarragona (2009), Centro Cultural Español in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic (2014), La Naval in Cartagena (2015) and Espai 13 at the Fundació Joan Miró in Barcelona (2018).
