Mario García Torres
'Illusion Brought Me Here' maps out the extensive body of work of Mexican artist Mario García Torres for the first time.New essays by Sophie Berrebi, Julia Bryan-Wilson, Rulo David, Vincenzo de Bellis, Caroline Dumalin, and Tom McDonough look at the way García Torres's work addresses ideas of failure, uncertainty, and memory, and at how the counter-narratives he weaves invite us to revisit and rethink the legacies of conceptual art in the Americas and Europe.This catalogue, published on the occasion of the artist's first survey exhibition in the US and in Europe, also features a richly illustrated and annotated selection of nearly fifty works, the most comprehensive compilation of the arti...
Mario García Torres
Appropriation, storytelling, reenactment, and reportage are some of the strategies that Mario García Torres deploys to highlight the limitations of factual evidence and the agency of historical records and objects. An Arrival Tale detaches the Mexican artist's works in the TBA21 collection from their original contexts and offers them as a collection of narratives and artistic experiments open for reinscription in order to address the conditions and urgencies of our contemporary societies. It examines the space of arrival as a complicated and disjointed nexus between departure, displacement, and return. This publication follows the eponymous exhibition at TBA21 – Augarten. While conceived in relation to the exhibition, this book is not a documentation, but rather the start of a journey that expands, explores, complicates, and undoes the thematic threads of spatial disjunction, recollection, asynchronicity, fictionality, and the politics of visibility. Copublished with Thyssen-Bornemisza Art Contemporary, Vienna Contributors Armen Avanessian, Daniel Garza-Usabiaga, Carl Michael von Hausswolff, Anke Hennig, Chus Martínez, Eva Wilson, Daniela Zyman
Caminar juntos
"Largely the work of Mario García Torres (b. Monclova, Mexico 1975) tries to locate and question places of art. This interest has led him to travel on a constant basis. The Museum, either built or imagined, is one of the places that he has investigated and even wanted to create. The exhibition presents more than thirty works created by the artist over the last fifteen years. "Included in the book is another viewpoint, "You Are Here", a text by the poet Luis Jorge Boone. His is a commissioned piece inspired by the Museo de Arte Sacramento and a verse informed from his travels within Coahuila"--Page 11.
Seth Siegelaub
"Surveys the life and work of the man widely known as 'the godfather of conceptual art.' Accompanying the eponymous exhibition at the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam, it is the first comprehensive attempt to chart Siegelaub's activities as a curator, publisher, bibliographer, and collector across different realms, from conceptual art and mass media to politics and textiles"--Back cover.
Mario Garcia Torres
In seinem Notizbuch lädt Mario Garcia Torres die Leser dazu ein, an seinen Gedanken zum Verhältnis von Gast-Sein und Gastgeberschaft teilzuhaben. Welche Reaktionen werden ausgelöst, wenn man eine Einladung erhält? Wie agiert man in einem vorgegebenen Kontext und wie lässt sich daraus ausbrechen, lassen sich die beiden Rollen vertauschen? Garcia Torres umkreist diese Fragen anhand von Beispielen anderer Künstler, die sich explizit in eine der Rollen begeben haben: Alighieri Boetti mit seinem One Hotel in Kabul und Allen Ruppersberg mit Al's Grand Hotel in Los Angeles in die des Gastgebers; auf der anderen Seite Daniel Buren als Gast eines 1989 durch einen Wirbelsturm zerstörten Resorts auf Saint Croix, einer der Jungferninseln, wo er In-situ-Arbeiten installierte, sowie Martin Kippenberger, der im Hotel Chelsea in Köln lebte. Wir sind dabei seine Gäste und müssen entscheiden, was wir mitbringen wollen: eine Flasche Wein oder einen Blumenstrauß. Mario Garcia Torres (*1975) ist Künstler und lebt in Mexiko-Stadt.
