The four works to be exhibited at the Fundación José García Jiménez are "The Forge of Vulcan ',' Glup of Shadows', 'Cluster Bombs' and' The Nest '.
This is the first time that 'Async' out of MUBAM and "dialogue with other spaces with which the artist also participates and is involved," explained Cruz, who indicated that this intervention can be summarized in three concepts: 'ex-culture 'recklessness' and 'ownership'.
According to the Minister, with 'Ex-culture', Lidó Rico goes to show that culture dies, is deciduous, can become a corpse that has its time once. "
The concept of 'recklessness' means, in Cruz's words, that culture "turns into fear, emotion, irrationality, and the viewer, far from being free, is subjected to a series of manipulations that keep a state of tension, anticipation and anxiety tragic. "
The third concept would be to "ownership."
The charge of Culture added that "we are facing an exhibition quite heterogeneous, where the monochromatic who chaired many phases of the work of Rico is combined with a chromatic exacerbated where the object almost mural, sculpture and painting, combined with the installation" .
Cruz stressed that this intervention is "running away everywhere and, therefore, makes the viewer is in serious difficulties in determining what you are seeing."
"That's the best," he said, since everything is complicated, all that is overwhelming is what makes us live and remain tense during the day to day. "
In the project 'Async', five contemporary artists display their work alongside that of the permanent collection of MUBAM.
