The Magic of the Cities.

Zen promotes the rediscovery of the obvious, which is so often lost in its familiarity and simplicity. It sees the miraculous in the common and magic in our everyday surroundings. When we are not rushed, and our minds are unclouded by conceptualizations, a veil will sometimes drop, introducing the viewer to a world unseen since childhood. ~ John Greer

Gallery Weekend III

OMR Gallery  -  Pablo Rasgado
Pablo Rasgado (Zapopan, 1984) solo exhibition is an art show in constant change: it grows through the restyling of the gallery space. The walls of drywall that used to divide OMR gallery’s small rooms were removed to open just two rooms bigger in size. Instead of old walls, brick walls from other locations were placed there. This is an attempt to make sense to the whole process of transformation in space and forms in the exhibition. All material extracted from the walls is used by the artist to produce a series of sculpture; form and size fully depend on how much material is obtained from demolitions.

In the mid-1990s a number of contemporary art galleries located in the Roma neighborhood came together to make a joint project, in addition to increasing its convening power, managed to recover public spaces, rehabilitation tissue social networks and coexistence in the area. In the last decade the Roma and Condesa colonies have become important centers of artistic production, leading to the proliferation of countless new cultural expressions.

In order to relocate these territories on the map and in the minds of the inhabitants of Mexico City, this event aims to revive this corridor, this time with a renewed spirit for disseminating valuable projects and initiatives that rotate on two highly topical aspects: contemporary art and design.

Because we live in when you need to generate projects, and promote contemporary culture help restore the social fabric, to restore confidence in city life and foster networks achieve coexistence. Contemporary culture, involving a variety of genres such as art, design, music and fashion has been an effective means of social networking in addition to promoting the education and training of informed individuals who can best meet your context condition.

It is done this event twice a year: the last weekend of May and the last weekend of November.
