Using various materials from a kitsch aesthetic, she  will open breaches in daily life and its power struggles, by proposing a  transformation of the building\u2019s facade and a new reading of its  interior space.<\/p>\n<p>Some of Cavagnaro\u2019s projects call attention to the fragmentation of  public space in Latin American cities like S\u00e3o Paulo. A public space is  not public, but it\u2019s not private either. It is ambiguous; it is both  things at the same time. A public space always belongs to someone and it  could also be shared with neighbours and pedestrians concurrently.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI always think about these small, inconsequential gestures that  change the conventional stability, they are substantially helpful. They  bring art to private life in a nameless and silent way: the audience  doesn\u2019t know what is happening is \u2018art\u2019. They simultaneously reveal \u2013 in  a deeper, quite subversive manner \u2013 things the system tries to hide:  everything could be different, nothing is in jeopardy, nothing wrong  happens. It\u2019s just different and intimate from the extremely boring  everyday life. The possibility of altering the most private domestic  space becomes clear; these gestures cross-examine and evaluate the  world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After studies in industrial design, <strong>Andrea Cavagnaro<\/strong> (Argentina) has turned to public interventions that consist of  interference or that adds on existing structures and urban furniture.  The artist has intervened in the physical settings of a bakery and in  its actual operations, in order to celebrate the Bakers Union anarchist  past in the 19th century; she has created multiple public interventions  on the frontage of houses and buildings; she has improvised urban  furniture in places where the Buenos Aires State deemed unnecessary.<\/p>\n<p>Mile End Community Mission is a volunteer-run, not for profit  organization working with members of the community that have been  marginalized by society for a variety of reasons. It strives to create a  safe and welcoming community which meets the practical, emotional and  spiritual needs of those who need it the most in the area of Mile End.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\ufeffFrom May 5 to 23, Andrea Cavagnaro will intervene with the Mile-End Community Mission upon the building that houses it and on its premises.
