Darío Escobar
A veces las cosas funcionan por razones equivocadas
Guided tour
-> Apr 29 2021
As part of the activities of the Art Week, there will be a guided tour with the artist Darío Escobar and the curator Daniel Garza-Usabiaga, through the exhibition Sometimes Things Work for the Wrong Reasons, which is currently presented at Galería RGR.
The pieces included in this exhibition examine the geometric abstraction of the second half of the twentieth century, and use as its starting point the designs in the boxes of the “redilas” trucks: commonly known vehicles that transport fruits, vegetables, passengers, textiles and materials, from distant places to the business centers that sustain the economy of some regions of Mexico and Guatemala, among others. That frameworks tend to be painted with clearly delimited bands of color that they play with horizontal and diagonal lines.
