Francesca Thyssen-Bornemisza hosts this conversation that departs from her and José Luis de Vicente’s report on their participation on the official working sessions at COP25. This conversation addresses how art is an active tool for fighting climate change.
Participants: Francesca Thyssen-Bornemisza, Founder and Chairwoman TBA21; José Luis de Vicente, curator and researcher; Alexandra Daisy Ginsberg, artist; and John Gerrard, artist.
During the weather conference COP25 Alice @alice.audouin invited Michael Pinsky @michael_pinsky , John Gerrard @johngerrard.inst , Fernando García Dory @fer_dory, Cédric Carles and other friends all aware that in a finite world we cannot grow indefinitely
On the occasion of the Climate Change Conference @cop25_madrid from December 2 to 13, 2019, artists explore the impact of climate change. Ten years ago, in 2009, Darya von Berner created in Madrid “Universal Cloud Flag” a white flag of minute water drops, like the clouds that nourish and sustain life. Shortly after she carried out this idea that she patented, manufactured, and installed it in front of The Peace Palace in The Hague in 2012. The cloud flag was emitted from the top of a steel mast, using fog pressure to spray water in suspension into the atmosphere.
Unique Multiples @unique.multiples is pleased to present The Last Illusion, a new sculptural edition made from one kilo of pure gold by Madrid-based conceptual artist Darya von Berner. This holographic, mixed media work features a cast sculpture of golden shit displayed within a custom holographic vitrine, which through its own visual alchemy renders the precious heavy metal into a hovering, ghostly apparition.
Following in the tradition of ‘épater le bourgeois,’ or abject works of art such as Maurizio Cattelan’s America (2016), an 18-karat gold toilet, and Piero Manzoni’s seminal work Artist’s Shit (1961), The Last Illusion continues this line of inquiry, questioning how the value of art is derived, and juxtaposing the symbolic with the tangible, the abstract with the real.
With Amparo López Corral @arteconsultora telling Rosa Pérez, presenter from Fluido Rosa by @radio3rne , about our art and nature project SER_PAISAJE. Rosa knows how to listen, inspiring multiple associations of ideas that enable to make all kinds of relations.
Fluido rosa, is a Radio3 program of contemporary music and plastic creation, where they find the creators of both national and international visual culture, exhibition spaces, museums, rooms, galleries, collectives, etc.

The project Lupus Viator (latin: wolf walking) began as a series of monumental painted installations of an ephemeral nature and realised in situ. Later the project continued to evolve over a period of 7 years. It travelled to 7 different countries worldwide. ⠀
Taking into consideration its extensive duration, as well as its territorial movements, from country to country, Lupus Viator can be understood almost like a mythical pilgrimage, which covers the trails and places, where wolves have formerly roamed in abundance, before the species has widely become extinct.⠀

‘Intelligent Elephant’ show graphically the infrasonic acoustic of elephant communication, with elephant calls of frequencies below the lower limit of human hearing (20 Hz). This special communication, serves elephant herds to coordinate themselves and can travel over distances of up to 10 kilometres. It was discovered by the bioacoustics researcher Katy Payne in 1984. Hereby very complex information is communicated acoustically, including emotive state, physical characteristics, intention, and perhaps reference to abstract concepts.⠀

At the Mercado de Fuencarral (Madrid), Marcha de Elefantes was shown in the format of a multi-media installation. On several monitors, in and outside of the market, the video of an elegant couple walking in front of a homeless, was shown on a loop. Again, the work emphasized the notion of habitat loss and its problematic in the context of a city.⠀

The project Marcha de Elefantes, is a metaphor of walking: the walk of all the wild animals and people which have lost their habitat and homes, uprooted and forced to leave their place of origin.⠀

The work began as a series of large-scale murals, but later the wall-based work was complemented by sculptures, videos and also performances.⠀

The windows and beams of the gallery were covered with fabric, mattresses, wardrobes, chairs and other objects, as if a tornado had sucked everything into the gallery space. One of the gallery walls showed a large-scale mural of an elephant, tilted horizontally. All concentration was focused on the trumpeting of this elephant, which has not got a floor to stand on anymore.⠀

In 1997, Tom van Vliet (director of the World Wide Video Festival, Amsterdam) selected Marcha de Elefantes for an exhibition at the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam. The work consisted of a webpage, showing a red toy elephant. Reflected on the surface of the elephant, one could see a sequence of images of miserable shacks, along a highway of south Madrid. The same elephant was then painted in a large format onto the wall of the museum, and the same sequence of images was projected on to the painting. The intention of the work, was to give a symbolic space to all those who have lost their homes⠀

⠀
The most impressive of this series of ephemeral paintings, took place in a gallery space of almost 1000 m2. For this painting and performance, von Berner relied on the generous help of five volunteers.⠀
⠀
For the performance the helpers were painted in the same way like the ephemeral mural, to somewhat visually become a fragment of the great elephant, just like in the well-known Hindu fable, in which six blind men, explain from their fragmented and partial viewpoint, how an elephant is. But none of them achieves to give a vision of the elephants totality.⠀
⠀
In our society elephants appear in form of toys, logos, cartoons and also documentaries, all of which are partial visions, which makes it impossible to perceive what the presence of a real elephant in his natural habitat can really transmit, moreover we can not really understand the significance of the extinction of this animal and its natural habitat.⠀

Der Rote Faden, 2014 – Frankfurt / Darya von Berner
Light Installation
Der Rote Faden (the red line) is a German phrase (Goethe „Elective Affinities“) that refers to a track, a path or a guideline. A Roter Faden connects distant things that belong together.
The building in Saalgasse 18, Frankfurt, by architect Charles Moore and Norbert Moest, is an example of an emotional and pluralistic post-modern architecture. The two houses are in reality just one. A red light tape joins the two seemingly different house-halves and repeats in it’s movement the circular elements of the architecture.
In Love with Unreality, 2009
Madrid, Galería Moriarty
An art installation at the Moriarty gallery in Madrid with the collaboration of the poet Lawrence Ferlinghetti known for his poems inspired by the New York subway, and the underground company of Metro de Madrid, that installed generously an access control turnstile at the entrance of the gallery.
Whilst physically passing the barrier with a Metro ticket with a line of the poem In Love With Unreality by Ferlinghetti, he recited it (https://vimeo.com/38096965)
Años luz (un instante), 1999 – Barcelona
Light Installation, Darya von Berner
Site-specific installation at Gallery Metropolitana (Barcelona) for the occasion of the millenium change. For each year of the past millenium a date was written on the gallery wall and every century was marked with a neon tube.

GALERÍA MORIARTY, Madrid
Sight-specific installation at the Gallery Moriarty. For this installation, the basic architectural structure of the exhibition space, was redrawn with the help of a new lighting technology (Light Tape). The title of the exhibition was inspired by the work of Immanuel Kant (1786) ‘What does it mean to orient oneself in thinking?’
Este jueves día 25 de abril, en el ámbito del programa cultural “En torno al 8M y la marea feminista”, tendrá lugar a las 18.30h en la Sala de Protocolo del @museoreinasofia, la séptima edición de VOCES SITUADAS, donde hablaremos de maternidad y cuerpo – maternidad y trabajo – maternidad y psique.

breathe( )red, Light Installation 2015 by Darya von Berner
breathe( )red redraws – from sunset to midnight – the architectural structure of the pavilion with artificial light. Darya von Berner thus transforms the completely transparent pavilion into a floating mirroring object. Harry de Wit composed a soundtrack that interacts with the travelling of light coming from the inside of the pavilion. His sound waves originate in the trees that surround the pavilion and are sent from the trees to the glass panels of the pavilion, which then resonate with them.
breathe( )red was commissioned by Tschumipaviljoen, with the kind support of Light Tape, the City of Groningen, Kunstraad Groningen, GasTerra, Beringer Haezewinkel Fonds and Time Shift.

Universal Cloud Flag, 2012 Darya von Berner
In January 2012, the artist Darya von Berner presented her most recent work Universal Cloud Flag.
The piece was shown at the Peace Palace in The Hague (Netherlands) @peacepalace.nl
, which houses among others, the International Court of Justice and the Permanent Court of Arbitration.
The flag consists of a real cloud, which is released from the top of a flagpole.
The cloud is created with the help of a new nebulization technology, which employs high pressure to pulverise water into micro-particles, that can float in the air. The flagpole also emits light to enhance the visibility of the water particles.

Fuera de lugar, 2009 – Sculpture – Darya von Berner
Carole Pateman definition of ‘prostitution’ as an institution that involves the exchange of money for sexual services (property in the person) and, as an institution, has nothing to do with women’s desire, but has a lot to do with women’s survival – and the very large profits of those who control the global sex industry.
