Each one \u2018spells\u2019 a single letter of the title, which, when translated into English, means behind the fields. A common root in Latin already suggests the landscape of open field in the etymology of agri. In this way they refer to a common place that of language, and to a very specific action to produce language: writing. So, though not everyone is privilege to the information conveyed by the words, what is disclosed is the operation of producing semantic signification through written characters. In a sense, we have to ask what it is the artist intends to signify by only disclosing to native speakers the given meaning of the signifiers. On the one hand, by using Galago, the artist insists on the integrity of the original word-repositories and their specific cultural and historical patina, and, on the other, he emphasizes that the localized meaning of the phrases and words is only one aspect of the work\u2019s sedimentation.\u00bb<\/p>\n<p>ESCRITO POR MERC\u00c8 BOLL\u00d3 EL 29 DE MAYO DEL 2007<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Traducciones para el cat\u00e1logo de la exposici\u00f3n Centro:<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[17,3,4],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.barcelonakontext.com\/traductores\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.barcelonakontext.com\/traductores\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.barcelonakontext.com\/traductores\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.barcelonakontext.com\/traductores\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.barcelonakontext.com\/traductores\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=48"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/www.barcelonakontext.com\/traductores\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.barcelonakontext.com\/traductores\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=48"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.barcelonakontext.com\/traductores\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=48"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.barcelonakontext.com\/traductores\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=48"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
