Exposició "Declaració d’amor a Lenin"

"Let me tell you, risking appearing ridiculous, that the true revolutionary is guided by great feelings of love." Taking this quote by Ernesto Che Guevara as the main premise, Juana Dolores makes a historical and theoretical journey through the concept of love in the revolutionary tradition, while also equating and comparing her class resentment and hatred with her sentimental resentment and hatred. She asks: what kind of love could exist under communism and how would it differ from love under capitalism? For now, in a context of capitalist crisis and, consequently, the rise of the far right and new fascisms, the artist confesses that she can only feel, think and work from the certainty that the only true love possible in this world of material and spiritual poverty is love for the revolution. And committing to the lucidity and passion that characterize the lovers who are reciprocated.
