AFTER - DUO SHOW — Galería Reus | Contemporary Art Galleries in Palma, Mallorca

Galería Reus is a contemporary art gallery based in Mallorca whose trajectory dates back to 2003. Over the years, the project has evolved through different forms of collaboration and programming, consolidating itself as a space dedicated to the research, production, and dissemination of contemporary art.

The gallery works with emerging and mid-career artists, supporting the development of their practices while creating a context for dialogue, experimentation, and reflection around the diverse forms of contemporary artistic expression. Its program is characterized by a diversity of languages and approaches, as well as an interest in establishing connections between the local artistic scene and the international context.

From Mallorca, Galería Reus aims to actively contribute to the contemporary cultural ecosystem by promoting projects that encourage exchange, artistic research, and the development of new perspectives.

After; a dark basement, fragmented stories that become one. There is no point of entry or place of exit [1], just a way to inhabit that dump. There is babbling and it smells of discomfort.

After is the continuation of Mecheros de Gasolina, a project that involved the emotional and professional meeting between the artists Sahatsa Jauregi (Bilbao) and Julià Panadès (Mallorca).

They had met for the first time in 2015, in an artistic residency in País Vasco where they already sensed possible connections. In the spring of 2018 they were invited to have a public conversation within the “Vis a Vis” initiative (Bilbao). Found objects, accumulate, emotional context, irrational, intuitive, humor, desire, whim, post-industrial, assembly, decline, imitation, noble materials, game, ritual, longing, ecology, Brazil, excessive, things, adore, Mallorca Island, trophies , spirituality, crystals, ecology, fleamarket, alternative therapies, at ground level, decoration, impermanence, chance, failed, rarities, precariousness, reuse or collect; were some words with which that encounter was described in a publication that was published later.

In the fall of 2019, the Tabakalera collaborative residency allowed them to share time and study for two months, break with their usual processes and investigate those connections with the Mecheros de Gasolina project. In 2021 the result of this project could be seen in the exhibition ‘Estudiotik at’ also in Tabakalera Donosti.

With After they continue this project, adapting to the conditions of the Fran Reus gallery space.
