- Summary
- A retrospective view of Rubén Ortiz Torres's art production. "Over the course of three decades, Rubén Ortiz Torres has produced work in such diverse media and materials as painting, photography, collage, video, film, multimedia, sculpture. He has also made constructivist use of these media and materials, syncretizing them in complex montages through a range of formal and political strategies including large- and small-format customization, appropriation, hybridization, and ready-mades that cumulatively produce a baroque, iconoclastic effect. The formal complexity and the originality of the genres and productive techniques that Ortiz Torres make his work unique. Unlike many artists of his generation in Mexico, Ortiz Torres's work has taken a critical positions generated from Mexico and Latin America formalist avant-garde -inevitably paired with and assimilated to a model of developmentalist, institutional and dominant modernism-interrupt and advance a political perspective on the reorganization of the circuit of the relations of production that connect art, the academy, cultural anthropology, mass culture, social movements and popular culture. work."--Page 25.
