Contra-Flecha 22024
Development of the exhibition program's 2nd edition, commissioned by Almeida & Dale, with the show entitled "Gestures of Love, Seduction Practices." The exhibition brought together 29 artists, including 10 selected, 4 invited, and 15 established artists and agents. The aim was to investigate the constellation of human and non-human relationships ranging from the biology and chemistry of libido to the magic of the power of attraction or the visceral force of repulsion, revisiting romantic inspirations, sensations of pleasure and sexual connections, but also friendships and family ties. Additionally, Fora developed the website for the program, launched in 2023. To learn more about Contra-Flecha, visit its page in the "Projects" menu and check out the program's website.
