Artist talk: Friday 14th, 2.30–3pm (main stage)

Following
the first edition of ‘No Soul for Sale’ in June 2009 in New York [40° 30′N, 45° 1′N], where Latitudes invited the New York-based artist group The Bruce High Quality Foundation to conceive their office-scenario, Latitudes produced a further specially commissioned collaboration, with Catalan artist Martí Anson (Mataró, 1967). The festival takes place in the context of Tate Modern's 10th Anniversary celebrations.

In response to the need to travel to London,
Anson set up the company “Mataró Chauffeur Service”, and drove Latitudes from Barcelona [41º 23’N, 2º 11’E] to London [51°30′N 0°7′W] and back. Designing the livery of the single vehicle fleet, his uniform, and the journey to Tate Modern and back (including the ferry journey Santander–Portsmouth) all form a part of the project. The gold-trimmed black vehicle’s design is based on the original look of the yellow-and-black Mataró taxis from the 1960s, a branding later ‘stolen’ by neighboring Barcelona’s taxi fleet.

The car itself formed the basis of Latitudes’ temporary
office-encampment in the Turbine Hall and was parked up for the weekend alongside a ‘typically Spanish’ picnic scenario of camping chairs, folding table and parasol as well as a slideshow of images of the journey. In this setting Latitudes presented films and publications relating to their recent projects. The scenario also served as a meeting point for a series of informal encounters with invited artists and curators. The car interior was a screening space for films by artists Bik Van der Pol, Marjolijn Dijkman, Jan Dibbets and Christina Hemauer & Roman Keller, as well as a series of ‘making of’ featurettes, all produced as part of ‘Portscapes’ the Latitudes-curated commissions series developed with the Port of Rotterdam and SKOR during 2009.

‘No Soul for Sale’ featured nearly 70 innovative independent art spaces, not-for-profit organizations and collectives from Cali, Berlin, Philadelphia, Hong Kong, Lisbon, New York, Manila, Beijing, etc. Participants presented talks, screenings, performances alongside each other without partitions walls, following a do-it-yourself style.

Charla del artista: Viernes 14, 14.30–15h (escenario principal)

Latitudes fue invitada de nuevo a participar en el festival
‘No Soul for Sale – A Festival of Independents' tras su participación en la primera edición del festival en Junio 2009 en Nueva York [40° 30′N, 45° 1′N]. Para esta ocasión Latitudes invitó al artista catalán Martí Anson (Mataró, 1967) a producir un nuevo escenario para su presentación en la Sala de Turbinas, coincidiendo con el 10º aniversario de Tate Modern.

En respuesta a la necesidad de viajar a Londres, Anson propuso diseñar la identidad de la empresa ‘Mataró Chauffeur Service’ así como el único vehículo de su flota y uniforme y conducir a los dos miembros de Latitudes de Barcelona [41º23’N, 2º11’E] a Londres [51°30′N, 0°7′W] (el trayecto incluye tomar el ferry Santander-Portsmouth-Santander) y de regreso a Barcelona. La franja dorada que adorna el vehículo alude al aspecto original que tenían los taxis de Mataró en la década de los 60 con una franja amarilla, diseño posteriormente ‘robado’ por la vecina flota de taxis barceloneses.

El coche permaneció estacionado durante el festival junto a un escenario 'típicamente español' realizado con
mobiliario de camping y una proyección de fotografías del viaje. En este ‘campamento temporal’ Latitudes presentó publicaciones y videos de sus proyectos recientes y organizó reuniones informales con artistas y curadores invitados. El interior del coche sirvió como un espacio de proyección de videos realizados por los artistas Bik Van der Pol, Marjolijn Dijkman, Jan Dibbets y Christina Hemauer & Roman Keller, así como una serie de cortos o 'making of' producidos en el contexto de 'Portscapes', la serie de proyectos públicos comisariada por Latitudes a iniciativa del Puerto de Rotterdam y SKOR durante el 2009.

No Soul for Sale’ contó con la participación cerca de 70 espacios de arte independientes, organizaciones sin ánimo de lucro y los colectivos artísticos procedentes de Cali, Berlín, Filadelfia, Hong Kong, Lisboa, Nueva York, Manila, Pekín, etc. Los participantes presentaron charlas, proyecciones y eventos uno al lado de otro, sin tabiques o paredes divisorias, siguiendo un estilo ‘házlo tú mismo’.
