La muestra Sobre Abominaciones y otras Luces es una indagaci\u00f3n sobre la g\u00e9nesis de la forma.<\/p>\n

La materia prima con la que trabaja Gabriel Rud es digital. Mediante apropiaci\u00f3n de tecnolog\u00edas, programas e interfaces que capturan la gestualidad manual, genera vol\u00famenes virtuales. Del juego, obsesiones, trances y prolongadas manipulaciones de esta materia digital, surge un mundo de formas abominables.<\/p>\n

Sobre Abominaciones y otras luces<\/em> por Marta Z\u00e1tonyi<\/p>\n

EL TODO BUENO<\/p>\n

Primero era el logos. En la tierra imperaba el vac\u00edo, y en el universo, el desorden.
\nLas tinieblas estaban sobre la faz del abismo. Por ello, en el principio cre\u00f3 Dios los
\ncielos y la tierra. Los cre\u00f3 con sus palabras.
\nY luego dijo Dios: sea la luz, y fue la luz. Y vio Dios que la luz era buena; y separ\u00f3
\nDios la luz de las tinieblas.
\nLuego dijo Dios: haya expansi\u00f3n en medio de las aguas, separ\u00f3 las aguas de
\narriba de las aguas de abajo. Y fue as\u00ed. Y advirti\u00f3 Dios que era bueno.
\nDespu\u00e9s Dios gener\u00f3 la hierba y el \u00e1rbol, los ciclos, los tiempos y los cuerpos
\ncelestiales, el d\u00eda y la noche, los habitantes de los mares, de los aires y a todos
\nles dio fertilidad. Seguidamente Dios decidi\u00f3 crear los animales de todo tipo. Y al
\nrevisarlos, juzg\u00f3 que todo era bueno.
\nPronto hizo al hombre, lo hizo a su imagen: al var\u00f3n y a la hembra los hizo.
\nOrden\u00f3 que las bestias, igual que las plantas, les sirvieran para alimentarse y el
\nagua para apagar su sed. Y Dios mir\u00f3 a todas sus criaturas y sentenci\u00f3 que era
\nbueno todo lo que hab\u00eda hecho.
\nTodo lo que hab\u00eda, era bueno, porque todo lo que hab\u00eda, era hecho por \u00e9l. Todo
\nera bello, porque todo era bueno. As\u00ed lo fijan las primeras palabras de la Biblia. Es
\nla primera ense\u00f1anza de la G\u00e9nesis.
\nEl pavoroso caos m\u00fatose en luz, en h\u00e1bitat del hombre, en verbo. Y desde
\nentonces, el hombre avanza sin cesar hacia el caos, avanza por la palabra, el
\nmundo se crea con la palabra.<\/p>\n

LA TRAMPA DE LO BELLO<\/p>\n

Pero hab\u00eda una trampa. Todo era bello porque todo era bueno. Faltaba algo. Lo
\nfeo faltaba, lo malo faltaba. Todo ten\u00eda la forma que decidi\u00f3 Dios padre, nada se
\nmovi\u00f3 para no perder su hermosura. Y Dios no altern\u00f3 ni lo que ya hab\u00eda, y estaba
\nbien, ni en lo que se reflej\u00f3 por la nada. Que no estaba hecho. Lo que no estaba
\nhecho, era el caos. Pero el caos tambi\u00e9n estaba bien hecho.
\nLo m\u00e1s terrible no es lo feo como rival de lo bello. El espanto era el invasor, el
\ndestructor, el nuevo b\u00e1rbaro; aquello que no sabe porque no se sabe qu\u00e9 es lo
\nque es y hacia d\u00f3nde va, porque no va hacia ning\u00fan lugar, porque el “hacia” ya
\nest\u00e1 hecho por Dios y es bueno. Porque es algo.<\/p>\n

Las pavorosas huestes comenzaron a engendrarse de esta trampa de lo bueno,
\nde lo perfecto. Lo deformaron y eternamente siguen deformando. Eternamente.
\nNo permiten que lo que hayan tocado se quede quieto. La forma se deform\u00f3, y el
\nnuevo engendro no pudo adquirir la palabra nueva porque otra vez fue arrastrado
\ny empujado a ser deforme. Y as\u00ed siempre, y as\u00ed sin parar.
\nSin los Se\u00f1ores de la Mutaci\u00f3n; ellos redimieron al hombre de la eterna belleza
\ndel Dios y de la eternidad de su bondadosa trampa. Agitaron lo puro y lo \u00fanico. Y
\ndeven\u00edan los bastardos, los h\u00edbridos y los mestizos. Que nunca se aquietan, se
\ndeforman perpetuamente. Y vino al mundo lo abominable. Y desde entonces se
\nmultiplica infinitamente.
\nNo se conduce a ning\u00fan lugar, sino que se expande hacia toda parte. Con \u00e9l se
\nquiebra el d\u00fao de lo bello y de lo feo. Pues su enemigo nunca ha sido lo bello, sino
\nel letargo, la calma y la quietud.
\nPor donde pasa lo abominable arrasa con la forma y deforma sin cesar. Arrasa
\ncon la palabra, arrasa con el h\u00e1bitat. Los llenos y los vac\u00edos pierden su l\u00edmite, se
\nagitan, se revuelven, se contraen, se expanden.<\/p>\n

EL SECRETO<\/p>\n

El amanuense Rud escribe y sue\u00f1a, indaga y titubea. Se retrocede, avanza. Vacila
\ny elige. Entre eso y aquello. Atraviesa los parajes de la doxa, los parajes de la luz,
\nde la forma y de la palabra. Como hechizado se despliega por los oscuros pasajes
\nsiempre transitados aunque nunca habitados, donde las masas tumultuosas de
\nlas no-formas provocan sin cesar algo bastardo, mestizo, h\u00edbrido. Lo abominable.
\nVali\u00e9ndose de la alquimia de las luces invisibles, el amanuense Rud va captando
\nesta mutaci\u00f3n que se derrama de la no-forma a la no-forma. No se preocupa de
\nllevar lo bello a lo feo, tampoco, al rev\u00e9s. Quiere atestiguar la secreta esencia de
\nenerg\u00eda, de la vida b\u00e1sica, lo abominable.<\/p>\n

The exhibit On Abominations and other Illuminations is an inquiry about the genesis of Form. The matter with which Gabriel Rud works is digital. Thanks to his apt dominion of the newest gesture recognition technology, he creates virtual shapes with volume and depth. Out of his play with obsessions, trances and endless manipulation of digital material, a world of abominable forms emerges. Special guest <\/span>Daniel Melero features an instrumental version of his song Supernatural, specially composed for this exhibit.<\/span><\/p>\n

On Abominations and other Illuminations,<\/p>\n

by Marta Z\u00e1tonyi<\/p>\n

THE GOOD ALL<\/p>\n

In the beginning was the Logos. Emptiness ruled the Earth, and Chaos, the Universe. Darkness covered the face of the abyss.<\/p>\n

So, in the beginning, God created the Heavens and the Earth. Words were the tools he used to create them. And then God said, “Let there be Light,” and there was Light. And God saw that the Light was Good, and separated Light from Darkness. Then God said, “Let there be an expanse between the waters,” and separated water above from water below. And it was so, and God saw that it was Good. Then God created the grass and trees, the cycles and time, the celestial bodies, and night and day. He filled the seas and the air with all kinds of beings, and gifted them all with fertility, and God saw that all was Good.<\/p>\n

Next God created human beings in his own image, male and female He created them. God established that all beasts and plants were to be their food and that their thirst was to quenched with water. And God beheld all His creatures and saw that All was Good. Everything that was, was Good, since everything that was had been created by Him. Everything was Beautiful because everything was Good. As the first lines of the Bible state. This is the first teaching of the Book of Genesis. The dreadful Chaos turned into Light, it became humanity\u2019s home and was transmuted into Word. Since then, humans are headed relentlessly into Chaos, they are compelled by the Word, the World itself is created by the Word.<\/p>\n

THE TRAP OF THE BEAUTIFUL<\/p>\n

There was, however, a trap. Everything was Beautiful because everything was Good. Something was missing. What was missing was Ugliness and Evil. Everything was shaped according to God’s wishes, nothing dared to even stir, for fear of losing their Beauty. And God did not alter what He had already created and considered good, nor that in which He could not see himself reflected and which was not created. That which was not created, was Chaos. But Chaos was also well done.<\/p>\n

What was most terrible was not Ugliness, Beauty\u2019s rival. Rather, Terror was the invader, the destroyer, the new barbarian, that which doesn\u2019t know, because what it is and where it goes is unknown, for there is nowhere else to go to, since All has already been created by God and it is Good. Because it is something.<\/p>\n

It was from this trap of the Good and the Perfect that the dreadful hordes emerged. They have deformed it, and will continue deforming it eternally. Eternally. Nothing that has been touched by them is allowed to remain still. Form was deformed, the new offspring could not get the new Word because it was again dragged and pushed towards deformity, continually and inexorably. Without the Masters of Mutation, they redeemed humans from the eternal beauty of God and from His benevolent, eternal trap. They disturbed the Pure and the Unique, and bastards, hybrids, and mongrels surged. They are never still, but are in a perpetual process of deformation.<\/p>\n

Thus came into the world the Abominable. And, since then, it multiplies indefinitely. It doesn’t go anywhere, rather, it expands all over. It shatters the duality of the Ugly and the Beautiful. It’s enemy has never been Beauty, but lethargy, calm and stillness. In the path of the Abominable, Form is obliterated and constantly deformed, and Word and World are obliterated as a result. Fullness and Emptiness become indistinguishable, they shake, stir, shrink and expand.<\/p>\n

THE SECRET<\/p>\n

Rud, the scribe, writes and dreams, probes and hesitates. He pulls back, goes forwards. He ponders and chooses between this and that. He goes through the realms of Belief, of Light, of Form and Word. Captivated, he roams through well-trodden but desolate dark alleys, where tumultuous unformed matter spurts one bastard and hybrid configuration after the other: The Abominable. In the alchemy of invisible lights, Rud captures these mutations that flow from the unformed to the no- form. He is not interested in making the ugly beautiful, nor the beautiful ugly. He merely attempts to reflect the quintessence of energy, of bare life, of The Abominable.<\/p>\n
