Author Description

The exhibition that took two years of elaboration, gathered around 100 works by Juan Pablo Langlois (Santiago, Chile 1936), from drawings, publications and projects to large paper mache sculptures, installations and video. Langlois works in a local conceptualism, reflecting from the everyday and using simple and malleable materials, such as newspaper. This material continues to dominate his work, allowing him to create figures of the most diverse natures: trees, cars and people, among others. Free from the lines imposed by contemporary art, he has created a series of sentimental nature, extracting objects such as mattresses, tables, flasks and televisions, which he intervenes with paint and texts.
