La Sauna Caliente, a site-specific installation in the former KUB Collection Showcase, is an immersive recreation of a spa-like scenario in which Calero references those typical of the regional landscape of Vorarlberg as a site for sports, body- and wellness culture. In La Sauna Caliente we find ourselves invited to take part in the ritual of such spaces: the robes, the slippers, the warm light, the changing rooms, the lounge chairs, they all provide the necessary déco to let the relaxation soak in, while watching and experiencing the series of contributions from Blunt x Skensved, Conglomerate, Rubén D'hers, Trevor Good, Cristian Guardia, Hanne Lippard, Dafna Maimon, and Érika Ordosgoitti, revolving around the constructed notions of the body, self-image and daily nature.
