This evening, to close the exhibition «EXTERIOR | INTERIOR» at well known artist, researcher and translator Rubén Verdú talks with Agus Giralt , historian, cultural disseminator and collaborator on the project «Va començar amb l’aigua».
One of the main points of this talk is about the role of subjectivity in historical narrative.
Rubén Verdú (Caracas, 1962) he studied Fine Arts at the Univesity of Texas at El Paso (1993) and the California Institute of The Arts (1995). He has made a great name of individual and collective exhibitions in Barcelona, El Paso, Nova York, L Lausanne, Città Sant’Angelo, Los Angeles, Monterrey, Osaka, among others. His work has a merely dialectical and relational interest, which is directly affected by the extreme ubiquity of visual production.
