There is this principle in geology called the Law of Superposition. It's one of those really obvious geological concepts that in hindsight seems like it should have been thought up about a thousand years before it was. It states basically that when you have flat-lying, horizontal strata of rock, the stuff on the bottom was put there first. Rock of this nature gets younger as you move up the column.
Tilt that on its side and establish the outward boundary of the national park-controlled parkway between Gatlinburg and the neighboring community of Pigeon Forge as basement rock, and the concept holds as metaphor. Gatlinburg is a little mountain town shoved in a cramped valley, so it bows to the conventions that geography imposed when it was first settled. It has new and gaudy stuff, but it's laid out on 19th century streets. The southeastern end of Pigeon Forge is the closest spot outside Gatlinburg that could be redesigned once tourists started coming to the Smoky Mountains, so that line is clogged with the remnants of ancient Route 66-type motels from the '50s. Keep driving away from the Smokies, and it's easy to see a fairly standard age progression through the '70s, '80s, and '90s. As you near Sevierville, it starts turning positively millennial in a very surreal way. There are fancy waterparks shining in LED light.
"The Tours Aillaud (also known as Tours Nuages) is a group of residential buildings located in Nanterre, in the inner suburbs of Paris, France.
"Built in 1977 at the outskirts of La Défense business district, the Tours Aillaud are named after their main architect, Emile Aillaud. The housing project represents 18 towers including 1,607 apartments all together. The tallest of those are the Tours 1 and 2 with 39 floors and a height of 105 metres. The Tours 3 to 10 have 20 floors and the Tours 11 to 18 have 13 floors.
"Despite the differences in height, the towers share the same shape, consisting of the superposition of several cylinders. Their cladding is made of frescos representing clouds in the sky (in French nuages), which is the origin of their nickname."

(Recovery of the first scaffolding for the construction of the monument to Henry Dundas, alias Lord Melville in St. Andrew Square: a support structure put in place owing to the risk of imminent collapse) en Interview Room 11 Gallery (43 Pennywell Road. EH4 4QR Edinburgh) www.ir11.org.uk/
An ephemeral structure surrounds the monument in honour of Henry Dundas in St Andrew Square, in the economic centre of the city. Taking this as a starting point, a story that depicts the relationship between the monument and the provisional support structure is created.
The towering stone column stands as a metaphor for a power struggle. It conveys an ideology and occupies a symbolic space. The temporary armature made of wood harks back to the very beginnings of this monumental project. It highlights the nature of the monument-to-be, hinting at the collapse of this outsized column.
While the urban icon still remains in the middle of the square, a disused supermarket on the outskirt of the city will serve as an exhibition space. This show seeks to question the urban structure, the planning laws and by-laws guidelines allowed the project to proceed, and the changes that the symbols are suffering.
The sculpture is surrounded by a provisional structure, an empty framework that creates a threshold, a space that extends the centre of the square. The wooden structure does not come into contact with the solid stone of the monument, but it just approaches without actually touching; it seems to be embracing for afar. Once the announced collapse is fulfilled, the column, now turned into stone ruins, can continue to be ‘re-built’ into the vacated space.
The wooden armature is presented as a way to build desires. It is brittle and separated from power only a few centimetres; like a utopia, a tenacious desire that always fails but resists thanks to the fact that it seems to fulfil a function:
Do not let columns drop.

The artist Jacobo Bugarín visits Edinburgh to carry out a specific project in the new space of Interview Room 11 Gallery. This space, on the outskirts of the Scottish capital, belonged to a well-known supermarket chain. After being abandoned, it was converted into studios for artists by the Interview Room 11 team. The Galician artist will exhibit in the building, still in the process of rehabilitation, to create an installation that belongs to and is in a dialogue with the building. Part of the exhibition will also refer to the monument on St Andrew Square where Bugarín visited in Edinburgh during his first trip to the city.
Jacobo Bugarín questions the traditional modes of representation and receptivity. He proposes a modification to perceiving a specific context/reality through an analysis and/or alteration of the relationships that exist between its elements. It makes a difference to know the systems of relations that intervene in the structuring our perception, and the goal is to make the viewer aware of this. The affections, the distance, the empathy, the superposition of structures or the externalisation of the discourse are some concepts on which his latest works of artistic research are based.
Bugarín had already been part of an exhibition at Interview Room 11, The Oracle, in 2014. In his career, he has participated in solo shows, including those in Baleiro and Zona C, in Santiago de Compostela, the Niémeyer Center in Avilés and the recent exhibition at Laboral de Gijón. He also participated in numerous group exhibitions, such as Velar y desvelar at the Museum of Contemporary Art Gas Natural Fenosa and Project Moscow at the Galician Center for Contemporary Art (CGAC).
This project is supported by Acción Cultural Española (PICE, Programme for the Internationalization of Spanish Culture).
Furthermore, the gallery thanks for the generous help of Indaba Deli. Spanish and South African Food and Bodega Soul. Spanish Wine from Small Producers
We will also host the album launch ‘1.4’ by the Edinburgh electronic music collective Bless This Machine, with an exhibition and a performance, starting at 8pm.
The performance is a result of a collaborative and experimental encounter between transdisciplinary artists (APBU–Dance Institute, University of Arts Linz –Interface Cultures) and scientists from the Institute of Quantum Optics and Quantum Information. Homodyne showcases a multitude of diffracted artistic interpretations of the key research questions within the field of quantum physics and philosophy–from quantum entanglement and quantum gravity, space-time and the motion of molecules–to chaos, superposition and Ancient Chinese Ontology.

The main interest of this panel is the figure in white. Typically figures from the Straight Part Figure art period have lost their white pigment which results in shortened arms and missing bits from their headress etc.
