Cabello/Carceller's 'Notas al pie' at TEA Tenerife Rereads History from the Margins
The exhibition 'Notas al pie' at TEA Tenerife Espacio de las Artes features the artistic collaboration of Cabello/Carceller, consisting of Helena Cabello (born in Paris, 1963) and Carceller (born in Madrid, 1964). Curated by Sergio Rubira with support from Daniasa Curbelo, the showcase delves into identities and experiences that defy conventional classifications, highlighting figures such as Céspedes, Erauso, and Agustina González López as 'unforeseen subjects.' A notable piece, 'El jardín imposible de Tefía. Prólogo para un campo de concentración,' reflects on the Colonia Agrícola Penitenciaria de Tefía. Their diverse work encompasses video and installation, and they were finalists for the Fundación MACBA Prize in 2024, also earning the Gold Medal for Merit in Fine Arts. The exhibition is open until July 5, 2026.
