Book First Edition
Soft Cover. Condition: Fine. Exhibition Catalog. Text: English / German. 64 p.; ill.; 17 x 24 cm; 250 g. On the occasion of his first institutional exhibition in Germany, Gabriel Kuri (*1970, Mexico City) has created four new groups of works, which provide an insight into different aspects of his practice. Accordingly, Kuri is showing sculptures and installation; all of them are made out of found materials or industrially manufactured products, including marble slabs, sand, paper, cigarette butts, or body care products. A precise and deliberate positioning and a surprising casualness always characterize the presentation of his objects in the exhibition. With their humor and lightness of touch, his works level criticism as well as political, economic, and social conditions. In the sense of an extended notion of sculpture, he shifts the boundaries of art and the everyday, as the viewers and the everyday become part of the aesthetic form. This catalogue is published on the occasion of Gabriel Kuri s solo exhibition at Bielefelder Kunstverein and Kunstverein Freiburg. Book.
