Juf (Madrid / New York) is an office for the research within the fields of contemporary art, poetry, and theater, formed by Leto Ybarra and Beatriz Ortega Botas. Juf’s projects explore the poetic and the social scenarios in which it emerges, also using its rhetorical capacity to question official narratives and absence. By focusing on visual and theatrical resistances, on the political traction of permutations of sound, rhythm, and tone, and by rethinking modes of sociability and coalition, Juf insists on other ways of producing meaning and action. Their projects take different forms: from publishing to curating, from studio-based artistic work to an ongoing series of poetic performances. Recently, Juf has exhibited and collaborated with institutions and festivals such as Judson Theater Center (Nueva York, 2024), Tabakalera (Donosti, 2024), La Casa Encendida (Madrid, 2024), Teatro de Conde Duque (Madrid, 2023), NYU Tisch School of the Arts (Nueva York, 2023), SYSTEMA (Marseille, 2023), Festival Salmon (Barcelona, 2023), Picnic Sessions CA2M (Madrid, 2023), TB21 / Thyssen-Bornemisza Art Contemporary (Madrid, 2022), Gasworks (Londres, 2022) or Sala Arte Joven de la Comunidad de Madrid (Madrid, 2021).
