(Photo: Mural Hernan Salamanco. Diffusion.) From today until July 26, the gallery Braga Menendez Contemporary Art presents an exhibition of the works of artists and Argentine Hernan Salamanco Lux Lindner, and the artist of Bolivian origin Elba Bairón .
The first presented in Conference Room 1, a mural inspired by an anthropological discovery. Apparently, the first images that captured the man came not from the real world: they were interior visions. Under this premise is that the artist presents an imaginary sky with a box that is nailed near a pink cloud.
Daniel Molina writes for DNA Culture: "For years, the poetics of Salamanco is underpinned by a strong tension. Usually, one that is established between a support rate of industrial (metal sheets on racks, for example) and the figures represented, referring to the first German romanticism (the sky of the current work evokes the tortuous luminous spaces of Caspar David Friedrich) or imagenería of fairy tales (including its famous prints winter). The time of the work of Salamanco has the density of the moment: It's as timeless as anything that is beyond the standard length; refers to the history of visual representation, from the caves of Lascaux or Altamira until the vertigo of the digital video clip. The wonderful thing is that with this vertigo Salamanco produces serenity. "
The second artist, Lindner, the book presents the sample big boy shit. "The exhibition is proposed as a place where several ways, but essentially the drawing. These means are designed as tools for interior in a collective state of mind particular: the celebrations after the final match of the World Cup'78, as seen through a character who has a lot of Juanito Laguna de Berni, with some additions or no orders sought by History of Art. Children Fuck you questions to celebrities, including every spectator, "commented the organizers of the exhibition.
Finally, Elba Bairón presents a series of head-object. If anyone saw a rabbit head in what looked like an egg in arteBA, this is the work of this artist. According to the organizers, "Bairon saves things, collects. Many times you are missing parts, and therefore spaces are empty boxes to fill. "
"Library? ¿Supermarket? ¿Factory? ", They ask.
