Sculpture as Action in Damián Ortega's Art | Brilliant Ideas Ep. 59

Mexican artist Damián Ortega is known for the intriguing sculptures, drawings and films that he makes using everyday materials. One of his best-known works, Domestic Cosmogon, was made when he was commissioned to make a sculpture for the opening of the Jumex Museum in Mexico City.

that one statement 'not everything man has done is good ' is quite an understatement - and made me think. Have we done anything good? We have survived, multiplied, and advanced our tools, but is that really doing good?

The installation for the Museo Jumex opening have a discreet connection to Remedios Varo's painting: Naturaleza muerta resucitando (Still life resurrecting), 1963.

[@drewcamero1489]

Shaun Clark Your a bit harsh on them. Its hard to talk about this kind of art without sounding like a lackey. But that statement 'not everything man has done is good ' is one heck of an understatement - have we done anything really good? We have survived and advanced our tools, but is that doing good?

This series would be so much better without the ass kissing "critics" bull shit comments. If the artist needs critics to speak for him or her, they are probably not much of an artist.
