So That The Shipwreck Does Not Occur is an installation of 20 framed pieces organized in diptychs, triptychs and polyptychs, 32 x 24 x 3 cm each (2023). So that the Shipwreck Does Not Occur is a series of works by Marcelo Expósito arranged as diptychs, triptychs and polyptychs to form an installation.

Realized on the occasion of Dissent Machines, it was inspired by the last books of Felix Guattari that address the global systemic crisis through the ‘three ecologies’ and call for an ecosophical revolution. The works of Expósito draw for instance on the notion of ecofeminism originally proposed by Françoise d’Eaubonne, the ecology of mind as studied by Gregory Bateson, the relationship between nature and communal organization embodied by activists such as Berta Cáceres, and reference the recent lessons of feminist, anti-colonial and climate justice movement. The thoughts of Gramsci and other key figures of twentieth century political history sustain the body of the works that make up So that the Shipwreck Does Not Occur.
Dissent Machines was a double solo exhibition by Marcelo Expósito and Oliver Ressler, curated by Marco Scotini, that investigated and highlighted the relations between the current systemic crisis and the emergence of new political subjectivities. Starting from testimonies from movements that brought to light the oppressive nature of globalization, Dissent Machines showed how Expósito and Ressler’s work developed from anti-globalization battles to forms of mobilisation that defend both the earth and social justice.

Dissent Machines. From Social Forum to Climate Justice was a double solo show with artworks by Marcelo Expósito (Spain, 1966) and Oliver Ressler (Austria, 1970) at PAV in Turin, Italy. The exhibition, curated by Marco Scotini, returns to an investigation of the relationship between the claim for climate justice and radical criticism of neoliberalism within a choral and collective perspective
