Dario Robleto Unknown and Solitary Seas
Dario Robleto's Exhibition at the Radcliffe Institute examines the 19th-century origins of the pulse wave as a graphic expression of internal life. The artist explores the profundity and confusion of this moment, when ineffable sensory and emotional experiences-everything from the pleasure of eating chocolate to the panic of heart failure-were first made visible as data. Rendering historic pulse waves in gleaming steel and brass, printing and retrieving them from layers of soot, converting them into video and engineered sound, Robleto encourages us to attend to them with resonant forms of empathy, to reflect upon the lives of the 19th-century subjects who bequeathed them to us, and ultimatel...
Dario Robleto
Survival Does Not Lie in the Heavens looks at Dario Robleto's ingenious adaptations of nineteenth-century folk traditions to explore mortality and memorialization. Robleto's sculptural objects use the model of the folksy mantelpiece keepsake--the elaborately framed photograph, the trophy, commemorative embroidery--and counter their traditionally saccharine, sentimental appeal with brilliant conceptual gestures. Thus, paper pulped from soldier's letters home (from various wars) are repurposed to create a keepsake of silk, goldleaf and seashells; a homeopathic treatment for "Human Longing" includes medicine made from a ground-up recording of Sylvia Plath; and a framed memorial to Marie Louise Meilleur, who died at the aged of 117, includes hair lockets made of stretched audiotape recordings of other supercentarians. Throughout these works, Robleto's concern is with the human management of death through objects, affirming that the task of survival takes place here on earth.
Alloy of Love
Honorable mention for the 2009 AAM Museum Publications Design Competition San Antonio-based artist Dario Robleto is well known for his astonishing hand-crafted objects: works that reflect his intense investigatioin of such wide-ranging topics as science, music, popular culture, philosophy, war, and American history. Utilizing a lengthy roster of bizarre and disparate materials--including melted and pulverized vinyl records, artifacts gleaned from battlefields, rare herbs and minerals, and even prehistoric fossils and human bones--Robleto excavates conceptually-loaded elements from the past. He then seamlessly combines and refashions these potent details into poetic works that speak volumes a...
The Heart's Knowledge: Science and Empathy in the Art of Dario Robleto
A thematic appraisal of Robleto's intertwined fascinations with the human heart and the cosmic boundaries of perception The prints, sculptures and films of Houston-based artist Dario Robleto (born 1972) explore the pathos and the speculative potential of scientific inquiry. Structured around three themes that run through Robleto's art--heartbeats, wavelengths and horizons--this book traces his intertwined fascinations with the human heart and the cosmic boundaries of perception. Through contributions across the disciplines of musicology, anthropology, cardiology, engineering, history of science and art history, The Heart's Knowledge offers an engaging companion to Robleto's wide-ranging work. Richly illustrated with images, the volume includes selections from his 2017 portfolio The First Time, The Heart (A Portrait of Life 1854-1913), which transforms the pulse waves of early cardiography into a gallery of vanished souls, and the astral projections in such films as The Boundary of Life is Quietly Crossed (2020).
Dario Robleto
Influenced by DJ culture, mixing and sampling, Texas artist Dario Robleto breaks down and reassembles cultural relics, using materials like bone dust, vinyl records and bullet lead to form works that resemble authentic artifacts. This volume looks like a rock album cover on the outside and an antebellum photo album inside, with flip-up tipped-in photographs.
Dario Robleto
Dario Robleto confronts the experience of war through its material remnants. Materials for his sculptures may include lead marbles used by Civil War soldiers, soldiers' letters to sweethearts and human bone dust. Robleto then expertly fashions these into improbably poignant, handmade objects such as a child's mourning dress, an audiotape and even a carafe of wine.
Idea-ology
Great design is something that makes you pause and think. That’s because there is a pure concept behind that design. Without a strong concept, design is merely an arrangement of elements within the parameters of a given format, resulting in design that is purely decorative. Void of the inspiration that makes design transcendent, the audience is left disengaged and intellectually/emotionally indifferent. Stanley Hainsworth, a designer who is known for design built on strong concepts, takes readers on an unprecedented visual journey through the minds of today’s best design thinkers via interviews and project case studies, exploring and revealing the sources of the concepts behind the projects. This book is a visual and informational feast.
