Title: Tabares
Description: An exhibition that presents, through more than 70 works, the trajectory of the Uruguayan artist Gustavo Tabares (Montevideo, 1968), visual artist, curator and academic in the Universidad Católica del Uruguay. Emerging in the Montevideo scene in the aftermath of the eighties, his work proposes a reflection on contemporary art as a need for political-vital expression. Despite belonging to the generation that addresses painting as a fundamental means of expression, Tabares' work has been developed in multiple formats and media: sculpture, installation, video, photography, artist's books, performance, graphics, sound art among others. The exhibition will be organized museographically in four diatronic moments that are not intended to project both the idea of a possible stylistic evolution, understood as the technical and discursive improvement of his work, but on the contrary as the projection of an existential becoming articulated by an intersubjectivity, (in its philosophical and psychological definition) that connects private aspects with cultural, social and political contexts where the artist is located. This exhibition was organized within the framework of 14th Bienal de Curitiba.
