Description: "Magali Lara's exhibition "Armor", proposes the artist's re-imagination of the self after laying herself out in the open through more than forty years of work in her retrospective Del Verbo Estar at Museo Universitario del Chopo (Mexico City) in 2017. But Lara has been making herself vulnerable since she started to draw and write as a teenager, as a way of folding and unfolding her multiple identities. This has been a profoundly intimate, private and complex life project, of construction and deconstruction of the self as she has been living and creating her experiences as a woman, as an artist, as a mother, as a lover, as a friend and as a collectivity." --Page 11.
