SILVERLENS is proud to announce its participation in SOUTH SOUTH, a new innovative online platform, community, and anthology for galleries, artists, curators, and collectors invested in the Global South. Hosting events year-round, SOUTH SOUTH's portal aims to address the imbalance in the global cultural framework by providing a means to explore alternative art centres within a broader geopolitical context.
The initiative's launch event, SOUTH SOUTH VEZA brings together over fifty galleries from across five continents to present a varied, dynamic, de-centred world view of contemporary art production. Taking place from 23 February through 7 March 2021, SOUTH SOUTH VEZA will be a digital hybrid of a Live Selling Event and an Online Viewing Room (OVR). On the occasion of this first edition, the gallery will be featuring works by three of its represented artists – Martha Atienza, Norberto Roldan, and Pow Martinez – in a presentation entitled Our Islands.
