Acción<br />

Imágenes cortesía d<strong>el</strong> artista<br />

Acción recreada en potencia en <strong>el</strong> contexto<br />

<strong>de</strong> la exposición. En <strong>el</strong> centro <strong>de</strong> la sala,<br />

una mesa llena <strong>de</strong> objetos <strong>de</strong> vidrio sobre<br />

un mant<strong>el</strong> con <strong>el</strong> que sería imposible<br />

realizar con éxito <strong>el</strong> truco que dio origen a<br />

la acción. En la pared, las instrucciones para<br />

realizar <strong>el</strong> truco.<br />

La acción, que se <strong>de</strong>sarrolló <strong>el</strong> 15 <strong>de</strong> abril<br />

<strong>de</strong> 2011 en Gallery 136 <strong>de</strong> Nueva York,<br />

consistió en retirar <strong>el</strong> mant<strong>el</strong> <strong>de</strong> una mesa<br />

llena <strong>de</strong> vidrios. Aludía, según las palabras<br />

d<strong>el</strong> autor, a “un truco popular <strong>de</strong> magia que<br />

consiste en retirar <strong>el</strong> mant<strong>el</strong> <strong>de</strong> una mesa<br />

<strong>de</strong>jando los platos en <strong>el</strong>la. Un truco que se<br />

basa en la inercia”.<br />

Action<br />

Action potentially recreated in the context<br />

of the exhibition. In the middle of the<br />

gallery is a table with so many glass objects<br />

on a cloth that it would be impossible<br />

to successfully reproduce the trick that<br />

inspired the action. On the wall are<br />

instructions for performing the trick.<br />

Performed on 15 April 2011 at Gallery 136 in<br />

New York, the action consisted in pulling the<br />

cloth out from un<strong>de</strong>rneath the glass objects<br />

on a table. The author <strong>de</strong>scribed it as a<br />

reference to “a popular magic trick which<br />

consists in pulling the cloth from a table<br />

while leaving the dishes in place. The trick is<br />

based on inertia.”<br />
