Arte comunitario y ‘feroz’
Grimanesa Amorós y su forma de concientizar a la comunidad en temas de salud y culturales
Hector Velarde
Un camión pintado de colores verde, celeste y blanco, con grandes dientes que sobresalen en la parte trasera y enormes burbujas de acrílico en donde aparecen niños sonrientes, se pasea por las zonas rurales del estado de Nueva York.
No es un camión de helados ni de un mini circo rodante, sino de una clínica dental móvil que pertenece a la organización Hudson River HealthCare, Inc. (HRHCare), que fue diseñada pensando en los pequeños, por la artista peruana Grimanesa Amorós.
Este proyecto fue bautizado por Amorós como ‘Ambulante’, no es el único realizado por la artista para presentar al aire libre, ya que otros de su autoría se exhiben actualmente en la ciudad de Nueva York: ‘Terrarium’, en la calle Hudson en Tribeca, en Manhattan, a igual que ‘Frente Feroz’, en la calle 125 y Park Avenue, Harlem.

We are happy to announce that the Second Floor of the Hudson River Health Center has been painted! It took a diligent team of 7, painting into the wee hours of the night, covering the walls and ceilings, to complete the task.

Bolstered by the community’s embracement of the first two phases of Substancial, the opportunity emerged to explore the initial concept and intentions of the piece in further detail. Substancial Phase 4 reflects the origins of the hudson river Health Center as a grassroots project and ties into the later emergence of the concept of the health center as a network of service providers which originates from the the flagship Health Center in Peekskill NY. Since the Health Center’s inception in 1975, 14 additional facilities have been created in different counties throughout NY State. Substancial Phase 4 incorporates this idea of the relationship between potentiality and movement with it’s dense accumulation of lanterns which convey a sense of potential energy and expanding mass in an explosion of light and form along the length of the façade of the health center.
