Jorge Villacorta Chávez y Gustavo Buntinx comentan la proliferación fecundante de las Semillas de Jaime Miranda Bambarén en las tierras eriazas del mundo del arte.

Transcripción y traducción al inglés de las respectivas intervenciones:

JORGE VILLACORTA CHÁVEz:

“Made from the wood of fallen trees, these spheres, that he calls Seeds, represent not only a direct relation to that organic world out of which wood itself emerges. They are also a link to that spiritual and cultural world that is the source of a grand portion of the essence of the energy that structures the Peruvian experience”.

GUSTAVO BUNTINX:

“Works such as Jaime Miranda’s Seeds propose the possibility of a certain resistance to all this. A humanist vocation recovered for symbolic production.

This is a generosity towards not an institution or a person, but towards the Earth itself.

…A work so markedly positioned against the waves and the very grain of the thanatical vocation being imposed on the world of art by the powers that be, and by the Power, with a capital “P”.

And this is particularly so when the principal enemy of art is now the art world itself.

We are not simply going to install this piece. We are going to plant it.

MICROMUSEO is radically engaged with the agony of art. Agony is not death, but a struggle to the death with death itself.

The incorporation of Jaime Miranda’s cosmic and terrigenous Seed in MICROMUSEO’s collection marks a decisive incision in these archaic but also absolutely new and urgent furrows that we are attempting to open with a renewed praxis.

And to unveil this sphere will also be like revealing the premonitory mystery of Christo Javacheff’s interventions”.
