víctor albarracín llanos

pirate franchise (2009)

This was a project by Klassenkämpfe (Lorena Espitia and Víctor Albarracín) produced as a collaboration with Mexican artist Carlos Amorales, exhibited as part of his solo show Nuevos Ricos at Kunsthalle Fridericianum in Kassel (Germany). The piece deployed piracy and transformation against the images produced by Amorales and the music of artists from his label Nuevos Ricos, all of which were perverted in their original configuration and placed in the specific context of their exhibition for a German audience. The piece consisted on an installation based on silkscreened posters, a t-shirt stand, audio CDs handed out freely, and an audio track.
