About the Item

Ulysses The heroic traveler, his journey transforms him. Germán Consetti proposes works of art as elements for self-knowledge. He unites the formal and aesthetic search in sculpture with a strong conceptual significance to claim a new space in contemporary art. This position is not new in the history of art, great artists have gone through this search for self-knowledge through the work of art, from the first representations in the Neolithic to the evocative force of symbolism or abstraction in modern art. For Consetti, the definition of the artistic work is born from the dialogue between the creator and the work's own consciousness. The intentionality that permeates the formless matter activates the manifested object. The artist interpellates the observer with universal questions that have been impregnated in the work and that offer the spectator points of resonance with the transcendent. Germán Consetti was born in Río Cuarto, Argentina, in 1975. He has lived and worked in Barcelona since 2000.

    These are figurative works, of classical or archaic inspiration, reinterpreted using strictly contemporary signs and communicative languages, decontextualized and transformed into decorative elements: bar codes, qr codes, wi-fi icons, @, symbols of well-known advertising campaigns, numbers / formulas, which combine to form the vision of a dystopian archeology of the future which bring the individual closer to goods or objects, traces of mechanical or computer elements, which testify to a reality, ours, which has already happened, already lived. It is like an eye on the archeology of a distant future, or on a contemporary discovery that indicates an end already seen, towards which we can move. The metal structures are supports that enter the composition and the aesthetic vision and communication of the topics covered. The "cages" at the same time constrain but support, they root to the ground but soar upwards, in a liberating tension. ATLETA 2 - LA FORMA...
