As part of the celebration of the Museum’s 45th anniversary, we will have a wide range of workshops and tours through our exhibitions, in which you can participate freely with prior registration.
In this tour of the exhibition by artist Naufus Ramirez-Figueroa, we will converse about how art is memory and catharsis; envisioning its possibilities for weaving similarities between nations and thus showing the nature of creation as something both political and personal.
About the exhibition
Naufus Ramirez-Figueroa. Cantandole a las plantas
Naufus Ramirez-Figueroa. Cantandole a las plantas is an anthological exhibition and the first solo show by the Guatemalan artist in South America; it will be presented in two spaces: Museo de Arte Moderno de Bogota -MAMBO- and Museo de Arte Moderno de Medellin -MAMM-. This show covers nearly 22 years of the career of this artist who has been interested in addressing topics such as colonialism and the presence of power structures in Latin America, conflict and its personal and social consequences, and the political dimension of plants. The review of Naufus’s work includes Cantandole a las plantas, a work that connects both shows and derives from the artist’s recent research in the jungles of the Colombian Pacific.
We invite you to check out the program so you can join us in this celebration where art takes center stage.
