Description: This is the first time that the exhibition of a single artist occupies the whole museum. The MNAV was completely rearranged, even its permanent exhibition, when it allowed artist Pablo Uribe - along with the curator of the exhibition, Carlos Capelán, and with the collaboration of Riccardo Boglione and Gabriel Peluffo - to reassemble it again. The artist appropriated the MNAV's art collection (Juan Manuel Blanes, José Cúneo, Carmelo de Arzadun, Petrona Viera, Guillermo Laborde and many others) and displayed with his own artwork (paintings, installations (video and site-specific) and interventions) and also used the walls as canvases for the exhibition "Here dreamed Blanes Viale". The name comes from the oil painting by Alberto Dura (Uruguay 1888-1971). Even the facade of the MNAV went from its representative gray scale to black and white colors. "Uribe is asked by the MNAV to anthologically exhibit those works that best represent his career, so that they interact with the over two hundred works that are part of the collection that make up our national artistic canon. Furthermore, Uribe, as a visual artist, along with his team, dismantles and reassembles the different gears of the museum machine, in order to think critically and thoroughly about the institutional ways and habits of our MNAV"--Page 339.
Notes: Published on the occasion of the exhibition "Aqui soñó Blanes Viale: una exposición de Pablo Uribe" held from November, 2018 to March 3, 2019 at the Museo Nacional de Artes Visuales (MNAV) in Montevideo, Uruguay.
