Summary
Lo que se ve, se pregunta is an exhibition of the artist Lari Pittman (USA, 1952), whose striking and multi-layered paintings have challenged formal pictorial space, cultural representation, and visual culture alike since the 1980s. The title of the exhibition is a reference to Mexican popular singer Juan Gabriel, who wittily responded to questions about his sexuality with Lo que se ve, no se preguntaʺ, or If you can see it, donœt askʺ. Pittmanœs inversion of this sentiment to insist on questioning what we see, reflects his own constant enquiry into what is and is not made visible. This is the first retrospective in Latin America of Colombian-American artist Lari Pittman. Originally from Los Angeles, and educated for a time in Colombia, he has been an important figure in contemporary painting since graduating from CalArts a mediados de los años ochenta. Curated by Connie Bultler, chief curator of the Hammer Museum, this exhibition has been held in close collaboration with the artist as the continuation of a dialogue that began in 2019 with the exhibition "Declaration of Independence" retrospective.
