Who Owns the Land?, Nether World 1, and Falling to Earth in Easterly Winds

Abstract

These three video works interrogate urban and rural land ownership and regeneration practices. The exhibition 'Easterly Winds' is the first cultural exchange between the Government of Gibraltar and the Diputación de Cádiz, Spain, which seeks to establish communication and dialogue ties between both communities. The first phase of the project counts with the participation of 17 artists from Gibraltar, most of whom have studied at universities in the UK, bringing with them an exhaustive knowledge of new artistic media. Other artists included: Stefano Blanca, Paul Cosquieri, Nina Danino, Ermelinda Duarte, Lizanne Figueras, Vera Francis, Ana García, Francis Gomila, Patrizia Imossi, Naomí Martínez, Alex Menez, Alan Pérez, Diego Porral, Aaron Soleci, Christopher Tavares, Neville Zammit. The exhibition was curated by Magda Bellotti and Maria Soto.
