Best Booths
2017Pigement ink on Baryta paper, collage, perspex box,
29,7 x 42 cm.
In this work I place a series of gallery booths from prestigious art fairs – previously selected as “best booths” by platforms such as artnet or Artsy – in contemporary art institutions, by using the technique of collage.
This gesture contemplates the possibility of the gallery booth becoming a new artistic form – derived from the artistic installation – with its own autonomy in the near future.
