/tandem project

self organization, interrelations and displacement are concepts which can help us understand “tandem”, a project whose main objective is to enhance reflection and communication spaces. tandem is manifested in publications ("tandem", an artist’s book, arte dos gráfico, 1993; "tandem" a yearly publication, arte dos gráfico; "tandem conversations", a monthly publication in "art for tuesdays" in “ El Espectador”.

exhibitions "lejos del equilibrio" (far from equilibrium) galería sextante, 1994; "strange attactors", museo de arte moderno 1995; "models of reality" a mobile exhibit in the Banco de la República, 1996/1997 and workshops (reality: a model to arrange) where both artists and researchers in other disciplines participate. in this context the tandem project has developed along with dean of culture at the Universidad del Valle, a process which has an initial phase the conceptualization and putting into practice an alternative network in Internet.

red/alterna is proposed as a space for an exchange of ideas, proposals and investigations of a cultural exchange nature.

its inauguration is complemented with an exhibition of paintings by danilo dueñas, maria elvira escallón, jaime iregui, victor laignelet, rafael ortiz, eduardo pradilla, manuel romero, carlos salas and fernando uhía; artists who have taken part actively in the Tandem Project and who have developed special proposals for it.

in the same way special aditions of the project made in the Taller Dos Gráfico in Bogotá, and publications in the "Art for Tuesdays" of El Espectador appear as an example of this.
