Sometimes reality reminds us of science fiction. Just select a few observation notes and put them to work. The rumor of events, what we call the future, is hidden in the texture of things and, although we do not know how to decipher them, they send us messages of complete certainty. ‘Algún instante futuro, pronto o tarde’ is a visual poem, it comes from the reality of the world and our overwhelming desire to give it an answer. If we use time as one more material, if we play with it as we please, we enter an infinite space that we are not able to cover. This is a work of adjustment and precision, something like an obsessive drawing to define the limits of the represented space, its atmosphere and the concern of not knowing how to decipher what is exposed.
Director Bio
Gonzalo Puch, Sevilla 1950.
I started late as a painter and had my first solo exhibition at the age of 35 at the La Maquina Española gallery, later the Pepe Cobo gallery. Soon after I left painting to work with photography and installation. My preferences gradually covered a wider space and I became interested in theater and contemporary dance. In the midst of all this, the practice of video, photography and performative actions are my main activity. Soon after I left painting to work with photography and installation.
