Fabric bank receipts, oversized plastic bread tags and more occupy Kuri's analysis of data versus imagination
Combining durable materials with everyday detritus, Mexican sculptor Gabriel Kuri (born 1970) lays bare the often contradictory values of our time. Embedded in his works are references to predictive modeling drawn from a range of fields, including meteorology and the credit system.

Brossura. Condition: new. Edited by Hammonds K.English Text.Milano, 2023; paperback, pp. 136, ill., col. plates, cm 21x30. Inspired by a wide range of cultural, political, and economic fields that seek to predict, analyze, and manage the future, Mexican artist Gabriel Kuri's practice approaches sculpture as a potential reflection of the relationships between the rational and affective realms. Simultaneously employing formal and poetic juxtapositions of quotidian materials, images and hybrid objects, Kuri delves into the interstices of contemporary culture where behavior and speculative ideas interact to forge our understanding of often contradictory values of our time. The future manifests in his practice as a deferral of the present rather than imagination of what is to come. By rethinking the mundane and the systems that order, the artist opens up the potential for transformation inherent in familiar situations when observed from unconventional angle. Libro.
