One more year, La Casa Encendida presents the winning artists and projects of the XXIV edition of Generaciones, the Montemadrid Foundation's call dedicated to promoting and providing young artists with tools for the production and dissemination of their work.
The primary aim of the programme is to offer a platform, dedicated to contemporary art, to showcase and publicise the work of these young creators to critics as well as general audiences.
The winning artists are: Daniel de la Barra Gómez (Lima, Peru, 1992), Weixin Quek Chong (Singapore, 1988), Agnes Essonti Luque (Barcelona, 1996), An Wei (Madrid, 1990), Salem Amar (Barcelona, 1999), Milena Rossignoli (Quito, 1990), Raúl Silva C. (Lima, 1991), and Irati Inoriza (Balmaseda, Bizkaia, 1992).
This year, the jury was composed of Carla Acevedo Yates, curator at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago; João Mourão, director of the Arquipélago Centro de Artes Contemporâneas; Luís Silva, director of the Kunsthalle Lissabon, Lisbon; and Mabel Tapia, deputy artistic director at the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía.
