黑料不打烊

Casas Riegner is pleased to announce the opening of Reiteraciones (1981-2015) [Reiterations (1981-2015)], Beatriz 骋辞苍锄谩濒别锄鈥檚 most recent solo exhibition.

The original, its copy, and the succeeding copy of the copy are concepts that have fascinated Beatriz 骋辞苍锄谩濒别锄 since the early stages of her career. The transformation of universal works of art in the hands of popular taste, as well as the visual traits acquired by a photograph when printed in the media, have had a decisive impact in the artist鈥檚 practice. Nonetheless, by employing techniques of mass reproduction 骋辞苍锄谩濒别锄 is not looking to create depersonalized or empty copies, but rather seeking to take a personal stance. Unlike Pop鈥檚 legacy, in which the infinitely reproduced image conveys an ambiguous message (it both celebrates and criticizes certain aspects of society), 骋辞苍锄谩濒别锄 does not leave room for vagueness: her work with newspaper images, which reflect the scope and character of information circulating on a national level, have modeled a clear discourse.

Although the works in Reiterations (1981-2015) are inspired by mass media images, the artist simplifies them, consequently transforming her characters into icons. With the images suspended in time and repeated in space, Beatriz 骋辞苍锄谩濒别锄鈥檚 reiterations fulfill the objective of fixing themselves in people鈥檚 memory, causing each spectator to silently whisper, 鈥渢his really happened here.鈥�
