"...Att gå över "gränserna" för det artistiska, det geografiska, det institutionella och det kulturella är den formella och konceptuella principen för FA+ vars kärna består av en svenska (Ingrid Falk) och en argentinare (Gustavo Aguerre). Tecknet "+" står för den plats som är till för de konstnärer som är med i gruppens olika projekt. Det kollektiva arbetet är ett av de mest utmärkande dragen hos duon, för de försöker sudda ut stämpeln av "individualitet" genom att låta de medverkande delta i projektens alla utvecklingsfaser…" Ur "FA+ - ingripandet i den offentliga miljön - Ximena Narea, 1996 | |
Curriculum VitaeFA+ is the cover name used for art projects done by artists Ingrid Falk (born in Stockholm) and Gustavo Aguerre (born in Buenos Aires) in collaboration. The + stays for other participants invited to join the projects.FA+ lives and work in Stockholm, the collaborative work has been important, 'Contagion' an interdisciplinary project that started in 1995, has dominated their recent work. FA+ participated at the Venice Biennial in the Italian Pavilion in Oreste-project 1999, where they introduced for the international audience a part of the process on 'Contagion'. During 1998 they finished a permanent piece for the Stockholm Art Council, an 800 meter long installation on a central street with citations from the author Strindberg in stainless steel on the asphalt. They participated with two installations, Pax Securitas and The Toaster, in Buenos Aires 1st Biennial 2000. "We add the first letter of the artist's, or other participants, surname to the group's name, forming constellations like FAWE, FAWPM, FALL, FAKP, subtitles for cataloguing the works. An important part of FA+ strategy is the flexibility in front of each project; the concepts, the people we work with, the places, the materials etc, are always open to change. We try to avoid to be prisoners of any dogma (even ours)."
