Summary

The most ambitious to date exhibition in the career of artist Icaro Zorbar (b. Bogotá, Colombia 1977, lives and works in Norway and Germany). It is a site-specific project osmotically embedded within the complex modernist architecture of MAMBO, which is radically transformed by the artist's interpretation. It comprises some of his most representative works alongside several new ones, "updates" and customized works specifically made for the exhibition. The exhibition comprises nine different installations composed of sculptural objects that challenge human perception through kinesthetic, visual, and aural experiences created using light, video, audio, visual and sound projections of different scales and with found and intervened objects. Also, as part of the exhibition there were a series of sculptural-performative events -attended art installations- which were presented at a specific times.
