“ “Topacio (or 36 Linear Metres of Pink Neon)” (2026) includes several pink neon tubes salvaged from the façade of a shop in Santa Cruz de Tenerife whose name lends its title to the work. It hovers between an architectural outline and an illuminated sentence whose meaning has slipped away.” → Continue reading (after July–August, this story will be archived here).

Co-comisarios: “Un loro, tres bares y dientes de oro” de Pérez y Requena, TEA Tenerife Espacio de las Artes, Santa Cruz de Tenerife, 3 julio–18 octubre 2026
Tue, Jun 9 2026
Inauguración: 3 julio 2026, 19 h
Latitudes se complace en anunciar la inauguración de la exposición individual “Un loro, tres bares y dientes de oro” del dúo tinerfeño Pérez y Requena (Israel Pérez y María Requena, n. 1975 y 1978) concebida para la Sala C del museo TEA Tenerife Espacio de las Artes en Santa Cruz de Tenerife.
Pérez y Requena exploran las dimensiones desatendidas de la ciudad —en particular, su Santa Cruz de Tenerife natal—, abordándola como un archivo fragmentario e inquieto atravesado por la memoria, el territorio, la ficción y la cultura visual.
La exposición—y la publicación asociada que se presentará en otoño, diseñada por los artistas en colaboración con Nicolás Barreto—surgen de imágenes, objetos y rumores vinculados a “Conquistador”, un proyecto de investigación de largo recorrido. La indagación se centra en la zona urbana liminal donde el centro histórico de Santa Cruz da paso al Mercado de Nuestra Señora de África y al puerto marítimo: un área históricamente asociada a la festividad y la marginalidad, que posteriormente fue reconfigurada por procesos de regeneración, entre los que se inscribe la construcción del propio TEA en el borde del barranco de Santos.

2025-26 Active Membership renewal with Gallery Climate Coalition
Fri, May 22 2026
We're delighted to share that we, Max Andrews and Mariana Cánepa Luna, have renewed our Active Membership with the Gallery Climate Coalition (GCC) for 2025–26, marking our fourth consecutive year. Over this time, we’ve continued to integrate environmental sustainability practices into the way we work, following GCC’s guidelines while focusing on practical, achievable actions within our means as a small independent organisation.
Each of us submitted a yearly CO2e report. Together, our carbon emissions totalled 16.18 tCO2e in 2019 (our baseline year), with subsequent years at 3.66 tCO2e (2022), 1.91 tCO2e (2023), 1.63 tCO2e (2024), and 4.45 tCO2e (2025). Our carbon footprint reporting covers emissions from our activities: air and surface travel (long-distance and regional trains, coaches, taxis, cars, metro, buses, and ferries), accommodation (hotels and self-catered properties), energy consumption (electricity and gas), and, since 2024, digital usage (web hosting, cloud storage, email traffic, and video calls). We use the GCC Carbon Calculator to conduct annual audits and ensure consistent, accurate reporting.
Year summary of Max's CO2 Annual Report
Year summary of Mariana's CO2 Annual Report
In 2025, we drafted our first Environmental Responsibility Rider (info and template here), a tool that enables us to communicate and align our collaborators on environmental goals before embarking on any project.
We continue to update our Environmental Responsibility Statement on our website, first published on 17 April 2023. You can explore the extended and illustrated version here.
Active Membership is not a certification of sustainability nor a claim that we are doing things perfectly. Yet, it entails transparency in assessing, reporting, and reducing climate impact, setting targets aligned with science, and seeking effective solutions. Active Membership badges are year-stamped, and members re-submit annually to retain the latest Active designation.

Applied freely to a wall over the course of a single day, the work accumulates into a diffuse field.” → Continue reading (after April, this story will be archived here).
