LagoAlgo’s second exhibition, Shake Your Body, opens a second chapter and stands as a manifesto of the direction of its revival: a living platform that activates the connection between various communities and reflects on a global scale whilst acting locally towards transformation.

The expressions “To Make Society” or “To Live Together” are as laudable as they are vain if they are not anchored in a principle of tangible reality. Beyond the laws, states, and power structures that lay down its contours, what is the organic reality of our interrelations? Despite being aware of the importance of social cohesion and feeling the desire to contribute to it, how can we foster the meeting of our energies? What do we share, with whom, in what context, and for what project?

From the fine theories of political philosophy to the latent demagogy of our representatives, our social models are becoming uniform, our behavior is becoming formatted and individualized, crushing our shared but isolated will to experience the common. Social inequalities are increasing every day, management is imposing its values more than sincere and disinterested commitment to others, indifference takes over on solidarity. Yet paying attention, the common is everywhere. In a football stadium wave, shivering across the bleachers; in a spontaneous chorus shouted by the crowd at a concert; in front of a breathtaking sunset by the sea, or in a shack built with friends. The experience of the common is a social body that trembles with the same skin, shouts with the same voice, marvels with the same eyes, and builds with the same hands.

A common ground despite our differences, culture is a place to get together. Building bridges to the island settled upon utopian roots that is LagoAlgo, this exhibition intends to awaken the incredible synergy sedated by our daily lives within an active experience of works not conceived as objects of entertainment, but rather as paths to explore together. This renewal of utopia - at a time when models of social transformation seem exhausted - is not a return to the ideal, but an invitation to think of the breach, the error, and the multitude as a source of a fertile hybridity. Rather than trusting in the return of growth and thinking that it will solve all problems without creating new ones, rather than dreaming of El Dorado, singing mornings, and ideal cities, there is a need to reinvest civil society in all its actual potential.

Sharing works that address these issues while generating concrete situations providing the dynamism and reunion necessary for their consideration, Shake Your Body brings together 7 international artists that embody collective empowerment: :mentalKLINIK (1967/1972, Turkey), Andreas Angelidakis (1968, Greece), Stefan Brüggemann (1975, Mexico), Vivian Caccuri (1986, Brazil), Pia Camil (1980, Mexico), Rafael Domenech (1989, Cuba), and Alicia Framis (1967, Spain).
