What is Spicy?

¿Qué es Picante?

My collaboration with ¿Qué es picante? consisted in presenting photos from the serie "Even Zitten", printed in 1,60x and used as decor of the evening; also I presented the video-performance Gosumy Electronics as an Avatar.

What is Spicy?
Evening of Arts and Mexican Culinary Wonders
Ticket Price per Person:
150,00 [One hundred fifty euro]


An exceptional cultural dinner under the intriguing title 'What is Spicy' will be held in the Kunsthal cafe in Rotterdam on December the 6th, 2008.

"What is spicy?" will be an informal evening of visual arts, music and culinary arts, and has been inspired by the gastronomic side of the Mexican painter Frida Kahlo. Her passion for life and pleasure of the senses were expressed in the dinners she organized. At the same time "What is spicy?" aims to help the weakest social section of Mexican society, children in need, by supporting the international foundation Children of Mexico. Part of the ticket sales revenues will be donated to this foundation. Fitting in with Que es Picante further donations can be made for Children of Mexico.

"What is spicy?" will include the performances of artists with differing styles and techniques. Some will explore electronic arts, new technologies and conceptual art while others combine and fuse the rich Mexican and Latin traditional art forms. All of the artist are of a high level and come together for the first time in Holland linked by friendly relationships, a commitment to the social initiative of Children of Mexico and their passion for artistic creation. The Frida Kahlo theme and Mexico will be linked to the art and performances by a lecture, and during a lottery the winner of a trip to Mexico will be drawn. The evening has been organized by "La seduccion del Gusto" and the BABEL foundation for art and cultural diversity.

This project has attracted the attention and support of institutions and companies such as the Mexican Embassy in the Netherlands, Aeromexico, the Kunsthalcafé [onderdeel van de Vermaatgroep BV.], Laloberinto Art&Design, Baby Phat Benelux and Patrick Paludanus, Xerox.
