Description
The exhibition, "A Mouth Full of Silence," primarily features oil paintings created between 2016 and 2019 and includes insightful contributions from theorists Pedro Donoso and Nathalie Goffard, art historian and curator Kimberlee Cole, and journalist Cristóbal Joannon. Together, inspired by the artist's work, they explore themes such as landscape, neoliberalism, and the journey through the territory, creating a poetic and incisive analysis of the current state of Chilean geography and its transformation through an extractive system. The exhibition also includes dialogues that revisit these same topics with a fresh and profound reflection on art and nature.
Alejandro Quiroga (Santiago, Chile, 1967) is a multidisciplinary artist whose body of work encompasses graphic, sound, painting, and installation art. He constructs and develops his narrative based on capitalism and landscape, exploring the territory through various media and disciplines. He investigates a visual field where the contemporary engages with history and politics in its transformation of the natural habitat.
