We are very happy to announce that “Pataki, 1921” by Ulrik López, has entered the permanent collection of Kadist.
The performance commissioned for and first presented at the 2019 Sharjah Biennial 14: Leaving the Echo Chamber, takes the ballet piece La Partida Viviente [The Living Match], as it’s starting point. The original piece took place in 1966 and animated the final match between Cuban chess player José Raúl Capablanca and the German Emmanuel Lasker during the XVII World Chess final in Havana, Cuba
•
Capablanca became the first and only Latin American, and more precisely, Caribbean person to ever win the World Championship. Taking the ballet as his inspiration and addressing colonial impositions of a Western art form and worldview of the Caribbean, Lopez’s “Pataki 1921” (2019) employs a sculptural approach to performance that is informed by the syncretism spanning the Afro-Caribbean archipelago in dance, music, craft and spiritual traditions like Santería or Ifá
