Guided tour of the exhibition Naufus Ramirez-Figueroa. Cantandole a las plantas
En Sala con is a space to delve deeper into the curatorial vision of the Museum’s exhibitions, interact directly with artists and curators, and learn firsthand about the motivations and contexts behind the exhibitions. On this occasion, we will visit the exhibition Naufus Ramirez-Figueroa. Cantandole a las plantas, in the company of Cristina Vasco, Jr. curator of the Museum.
About the exhibition
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.
This activity is part of the Dynamic Audience Development Strategy of the Secretariat of Citizen Culture of the Mayor’s Office of Medellin
