xPoetry Resignified: Entering Art Through Words
Exhibition Statement Poetry Resignified: Entering Art Through Words seeks to restore creative agentivity and subjective expression in contemporary art. This exhibition reimagines language not as a structural apparatus subordinating human experience to predetermined sign systems (langue) or scientific objectivity, but as a vessel for intentional expression through poetic-visual intuition (parole).
This paradigmatic shift dismantles the calculated detachment of psychoanalytic criticism and institutional condescension embodied in the "informed artist"-that fabricator of cognitive dissonances within sanitized gallery spaces. These distancing mechanisms, rooted in Roland Barthes' "death of the author," have justified art's analytical approach to social inquiry while maintaining artificial separation between creator and creation.
The exhibition proposes departure from structuralist imperatives that subordinate human agentivity to historical systems-what Foucault mapped as power's architecture. Instead, it advocates for re-materialized artistic practice dissolving the conceptualist myth of the disembodied, detached narrator who observes without feeling and produces without vulnerability.
By dismantling syntactic frameworks supporting art's dematerialization, artists reclaim capacity to activate personal mythologies. They engage deliberately with sign systems and objects to reconfigure spatial relationships, constructing culture as active practice rather than passive consumption of default semiotic structures.
This challenges the premise positioning humans merely as consumers of pre-existing signs, as Saussure's linguistic model suggests. Here, conceptual poetry and artistic objects converge, generating new interpretive possibilities where text, image, and sound operate as instruments of conscious will and purposeful intention.
The exhibition presents art as creative reconstruction site, where subjective agentivity reasserts itself against systems reducing human expression to predetermined categories.
