Andres Michelena
One Art Space
February 23rd – March 15th 2012
One Art Space presents the artist Andres Michelena in a solo exhibition.
“Content” is a metalinguistic proposal that explores the possible limits of perception and the assimilation of the artistic fact through what could be defined as visual haikus, or even visual koans. Everyday objects, unresolved situations, metamorphosis and quotes from universally recognized works are presented as aerial views of small Zen gardens, wherein the challenge consists in their frugality, synthesis and austerity – all essential qualities in achieving an equilibrium/disequilibrium which starts from a quiet reserve, without thereby losing the possibility of the playful and the anecdotal.
