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.
I choose the installation called “The Pam. Passage Showcase” [La vidriera del pje.Pam]. April, 2005. Cut paper. I connect it for diverse reasons – because of opposition and tunning – with apparently far away in time and materiality pieces.
The showcase as an exhibition space in the buying era was a concept I worked with for a long time, since de early 90s, in a very direct way initially, and in a much more ambiguous way later. In distance I can see a process in which dependence to the subject was left apart. I place the intervention of The Showcase as part of this process. I work on it from it conceptual qualities as a reduced exhibition space. Ever since, I’ve incorporated paper as a material.
2. In general terms, how would you suggest to approach your work?
I don’t think I should be giving any piece of advice for the appreciation of my works. Each spectator will have its own mechanism to relate to the art piece.
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?
In a very general way, I relate myself in the pictorial and sculptural tradition.
I have some trouble at pointing out my referents, on the other hand, they don’t always belong to the art environment, and they enclose an extended field. Many of them are the artists I’m interested in.
4. Choose works or exhibitions from the last ten or fifteen years which in your opinion were very significant and explain why
More than art pieces or shows, I would rather point out a period. I believe, Gumier Maire’s management at the Rojas Cultural Center (Buenos Aires, Argentina) constituted something like a maiden experience. It generated the last big debate from which new categories were enabled to think art.
