Summary: This work contains text by Bartomeu Mari, Dan Cameron, Robert Bresson, Andrew Renton, Georges Perec, Gerard Wajcman. "Ikon" presents the first solo exhibition of work by Spanish artist Ignasi Aballi. Involving a wide variety of media, it is concerned with the nature of nothingness. Absence and disappearance are themes threaded through a selection of work. "People" (2000 - 2005) consisting of shoe scuff marks on the wall, suggests a queue of waiting individuals, now moved on. Other works in "0-24 H" reiterate a tendency to counteract conventional practice. "Waste" (2001) comprises a number of opened cans of white paint, informally arranged on the floor. Close inspection reveals that the cans are not full - but, on the other hand, the paint has not been used. Simply, it is in the process of slow evaporation, occurring through human inactivity. Ignasi Aballí, Dan Cameron (Interviewer), Anna Jiménez Jorquera (Editor), Bartomeu Marí (Author), Maria Ramos (Editor), John Tittensor (Translator), Fundação de Serralves (Editor), Ikon Gallery (Birmingham, Grã-Bretanha)
