Visite de l'exposition "Damián Ortega: Expanded View"

Damián Ortega (Mexico City, 1967) began his career as a political cartoonist. He joined Gabriel Orozco’s workshop Taller de los viernes from 1987 to 1992. In 2005 he was nominated for the Hugo Boss Prize and in 2007 was nominated for the Preis der Nationalgalerie für junge Kunst. Similarly in 2014 he received the Smithsonian Artist Research Fellowship from the Smithsonian Institution and in 2006 he made an artistic residency at Deutscher Akademischer Austausch Dienst (DAAD) in Berlin.

Damián Ortega: Expanded View brings together nine of Damián Ortega’s suspended works for the first time, giving visitors a new transcendent view of the world around us. Ortega uses his ingenuity and humour to deconstruct familiar objects and processes. By changing their functions and transforming them into original experiences and hypothetical situations, he raises broader issues such as the economic, social and political discourse associated with the material and the relationships it is given.

Program of this session includes a contextualization of the exhibition through images and a virtual tour of the exhibition with comments on the most important artworks and Q&A
