Descripción de la Exposición

Dillon Gallery is pleased to announce Santiago Ydañez’s first solo exhibition, “Myself and Others.” Nature, childhood, and art history, with an ethical and political dimension are prominent subject matters in Santiago Ydañez’s works. Ydañez’s imagination is populated by living and dissected animals, landscapes and children, and is currently enriched with portraits of his influences from art history and literature. With great reverence and joy, he has painted Grosz, Beckmann, Otto Dix, Thomas Mann and other figures as his love letter to art, but also with heaviness regarding what he views as the great flaw in society of that time— non-resistance. Bergman in The Serpent's Egg and Haneke's in The White Ribbon illustrate very well how close hell is to paradise. Bergman notes that Berlin in the 1920s began to darken to an eternal winter. Haneke takes us back to a further generation and analyzes the society that brought forth the incomprehensible. This society of “good thinking’” in the 19th Century provides Ydañez with a number of sweet motifs full of idyllic images, landscapes, poems about love and hate, and an Arcadian orgy.
