Summary
Homage edition on the 21st death anniversary of artist Carlos Rojas, a visionary artist that few understood in life. Rojas was an early ecologist who enjoyed the contemplation of nature - in particular, the sunrises and sunsets of Facatativa and Alban - and studied science, mathematics, geometry, sacred literature and many other artistic expressions. The exhibition included the participation five contemporary artists, whose works dialogued with the original works of maestro Rojas. Each of these artists represented a discipline in which Rojas worked, studied or had great influence. The reflections they proposed continued his legacy and represented current developments in which he was a pioneer. Participating artists: Alexandra Agudelo, Gabriel Gutierrez, Mateo Lopez, Andres Ramirez Gaviria and Monica de Rhodes.
