The absolute job of Juan Luis Moraza

The compilation of works by Juan Luis Moraza comes alive at the Museum of Contemporary Art Gas Natural Fenosa, until March 3. This sample alternates the work of the already consolidated artist, and new work, which supports his ideals on the concept of absolute work. How this practice has become our way of life and has been implanted in the most current society.

 

Juan Luis Moraza, Vitoria 1960. He is already a renowned artist, in the most contemporary artistic panorama. The work of Moraza, has been developed basically in the field of sculpture, not removing protagonism to the different disciplines, with the integration of these to their facilities. The painting, the implantation of objects or the audiovisual material, make that the work of Moraza expands in different registers, techniques and contexts. These practices have positioned him as a reference when it comes to influencing an entire generation.

 

He has done more than 20 exhibitions, both collective and individual in recent years, in cities such as Madrid, Barcelona, ??New York, Venice, Buenos Aires or Chile, and his work is already part of certain public and private collections. For this particular show, the artist explains the concept of work based on different scenarios of the most current society, ug of Work, Erosis, Calendar of labor holidays, Republic, Software, Anormatividad and The party as office.

 

The curator Antón Castro has carried out a tour in which we can appreciate the distrust of the artist before said society, which encourages us to be competitive and to develop as automatons, being thus laziness punished by collective thinking. As "reward" sacrifice and effort, reward the individual with values that give meaning to the constant work of our minds. It is a valuable social critic, to the routine that we develop day by day. A sample that you can not miss.
