Descripción de la Exposición
"Guillermo Kuitca: Diarios" was the first U.S. museum exhibition of a selection of paintings made from 2005 to the present. Since 1994, Buenos Aires-based Kuitca has taken failed and discarded canvases, stretched them over an abandoned table from his parents’ garden, and then spent periods of time ranging from three to six months creating intentional and accidental doodles, drawings, and recordings on their surfaces. The Diarios, as the artist calls them, are the most transparently personal works in his oeuvre as they record information ranging from the banal–phone numbers, titles of paintings, email addresses–to the more personal. In addition to the Diarios, the exhibition included a projection of the table in Kuitca’s studio documenting the next Diario as it was being made.
Guillermo Kuitca was born in 1961 in Buenos Aires, where he currently lives and works. He represented Argentina in the XVIII São Paulo Biennial in 1989 and at the Venice Biennale in 2007.
