Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

"New Compositional Thinking, Vol. II." In this case, I have intervened, with pills of personal medication, the Paolo Gasparini's photographic book Retromundo edited in Venezuela in 1986. I understand my work with this book as a conceptual action. I am interested in exploring reflexively the elements that integrate and configure my daily world and its flux with my life experiences. I do not do that from an intimate perspective. On the contrary, I do it from an archeology of self (the pills I take every day can convert itself into archeological personal rests). From this point, my artistic work searches for a transgressive and contingent dialog with the particular discourses of Latin-American modernities and, specifically, with those inscribed into the context of Venezuelan history. My photographic compositions with pills placed on fragments of the book Retromundo, do not articulate or display an epic or nostalgic regard on the visions of the author of original photographs. They are unlike aesthetic breaches. The pills function as factors of association with the personal world of anyone. They are samples of an altered modernit.
