Ein Kommentar der El-Fin-del-Mundo-Kurator*innen Corinne Odermatt, José Sainz und Alejandro Bidegaray:

THE END CAME EARLIER THAN EXPECTED.

After this nightmarish week, we’re not sure whether to cry or laugh about the fact that the exhibition we’ve been planning for this year’s Fumetto Comic Festival, was titled “El fin del mundo”. The show was supposed to present seven Argentinian artists who deal with the concept of the end of the world in different ways. The works selected and created for this exhibition oscillate around post-apocalyptic scenarios, upheavals, crashes, economic meltdowns, shit hitting the fan, and the idea, that endings can serve as opportunities for new beginnings. Wouldn’t it have fitted like a glove into the mess we live in during these days of confusion and uncertainty?

While it seems impossible right now to tell how much is at stake, we deeply hope that independent festivals like Fumetto as well as artists, institutions, art organizations, galleries, theaters, clubs, publishing houses, record labels, all sorts of small businesses, self-employed people and everyone who is or will somehow be affected, will eventually be able to recover from this heavy blow.

In these surreal times, let’s look at lost opportunities as chances to learn and to act smarter. Let’s slow down, stay home, help our neighbours, show solidarity and support each other in the coming

weeks, months and furthermore in every possible way. It’s definitely not the end of the world, but much more a wake-up call to place our sense of community at the top of our agendas.

Fumetto will be back with joined forces march 20 – 28, 2021.
