Vision of art
1. Choose a work that represents you, describe it in relation to its format and materiality, its relation with time and space, its style and theme; detail its production process.
Telepathic (from the "Hidden City" series). An autumnal forest at dusk. The pink tops and light radiation from the screen. In the middle of the forest, a trail, walking through it, an aquarium diver. His suit does not allow him to see much farther, he turns to one side, trees are presented as a set. The other side awaits another forest. That of the television, the play, after effects, Persian carpets, models of trains. Successive layers. Mental machinery is affecting the landscape. I do not know if the diver is the one who is lost in the mental landscape (his?) or is it an intelligence state of the forest? There is something that is spelling. The diver is holding a small chest. There is another one on the way.
2. In general terms, how would you suggest to approach your work?
A) To let yourself be deceived. B) To react offended. C) Then, there is no deceit.
3. In reference to your work and your position in the national and international art fields, what tradition do you recognize yourself in? Who are your contemporary referents? What artists of previous generations are of interest to you?
Towards the difficulty of enrolling myself into a certain stream or larger plan, I would only dare to set myself next to those kinds of things that influence me all the time in a way or another. An imaginary line should be drawn passing through Allÿs walks, Cordwainer Smith's stories, videos of Barney, Polke's paintings of Gary Hume, Günter Forg, Flauvert novels. Cocteau Twins, Nick Drake, Sophie street sleepers, Michael Jackson, kicks de tony ja, designs of Hiroshi Sugimoto, George Latour, Simone Martini, the Bosco, Odilon Redon, hirschthorn, Jorge Pardo, the mountains of w. Delvoye, Wilhelm Sasnal, Phillip Dick, b. Aldiss, Richard Corben comics, Furi-kuri, Herzog, David Lynch, Cronenberg, Kitano, Kraftwerk, the grape paff Flynn, Maurizio Cattelan, Malevich, Rrose Selavy, Zappa, Siouxsie, dick The too much.
4. Choose works or exhibitions from the last ten or fifteen years which in your opinion were very significant and explain why
Some incredible showings: Kuitca at Malba, burgos at Dabbah Torrejón, Siquier at the National Fund, Bianchi and imperialism / minimalism, Images of the unconscious at Proa, Macchi at Benzacar (fireworks), Jacobi in B & F, Jumex collection, the tao of art, Gordín in ICI, Crossbowmen at Benzacar, Park by Leo Estol!, Charles Vuillermet at Wusmman, Max Gomez at Braga Menéndez, leave a picture of Fernanda Laguna, Juan Astica at the Recoleta Cultural Centre, fast and furious at Sendrós, Fermin Eguia at CCR, Pombo (almost there). All these exhibitions were addressed and / or worship at the time they were developed, I do not think they need any preamble or explanation. I would like to name a list of artists that I think are very significant but can not speak of a particular work of them: Marcela Rapallo, Paul Insurralde, Marcelo Galindo, Daniela Luna, Luciana Lamothe, Florence Levy, Martin Legon, Gabriela Forcadell, Lux Lindner, Nicanor Araoz, Karin Idelson, Adrián Villar Rojas, Tiziana Pierri Juliana Iriat, David Tobeim, Pablo Rosales, Luciana Passerini, Amadeo Azar, Nahuel Vecino, Fabio Risso, Rafael Gonzalez, Ignacio Sosa, Andrew Giles, Carla Bertone, Martin Di Paola.
