En savoir plus sur le livre
Abraham Cruzvillegas (b. 1968) has showcased his work in significant projects, including the Turbine Hall of Tate Modern in 2015-16, and has held solo exhibitions in the US, France, and Germany. The Kunsthaus Zürich now hosts the first exhibition in Switzerland by the Mexican artist. His sculptures and installations explore architecture as a reflection of social conditions. Growing up in Ajusco, a volcanic area south of Mexico City, Cruzvillegas witnessed the rise of makeshift, self-built homes due to a rural exodus in the 1960s. These structures, built without foundations or plans, involved the entire community in their creation. This background informs Cruzvillegas's view of sculptural form as a process of transformation, action, and solidarity, emphasizing improvisation, found materials, and collaboration. In Zurich, he will engage with the local community by transforming the exhibition space into a workshop, where new works will emerge alongside various events. Ultimately, these creations will culminate in a complete installation, reflecting the dynamic process central to Cruzvillegas's artistic vision. Exhibition: Kunsthaus Zürich, Switzerland (16.02. - 25.03.2018).
