La boca llena de silencio
Work detail
Alejandro Quiroga (Santiago de Chile 1967) is a multidisciplinary artist whose works include graphic, sound, pictorial and installation artwork. He builds and constructs his expressions inspired in capitalism and landscape on a tour of the Chilean territory. Through different means and disciplines he investigates a visual field where the contemporary assumes history and the political in its transformation of natural habitat. The book collects a series of photographs, oil and acrylic paintings, watercolors and videos -mostly oil paintings- made between 2016 and 2019, and includes critical contributions from art theorists Pedro Donoso and Nathalie Goffard, art historian and curator Kimberlee Cole and journalist Cristóbal Joannon. Together, inspired by the artist's works, they address topics such as landscape, neoliberalism and the tour of the territory, creating a poetic and acute analysis of the current state of Chilean geography and its transformation through an extractivist system. It also includes dialogues that review the same topics with a fresh and deep reflection on art and nature.
