COSMOLOGICAL EMBROIDERY AND MENTAL ARCHITECTURES<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Bispo do Ros\u00e1rio began his embroidery by unravelling hospital uniforms and making religious cloaks with the threads. He saw the new order as a pathway to the vibrant world of his imagination as he embroidered the names of everyone he knew, each material he used and every place he visited. Bispo\u2019s work affirms his belief in the power of art, the imagination and play as crucial tools for the acquisition of knowledge. Artworks by the Italian artist Alighiero Boetti, juxtaposed here with those by Bispo do Rosario, also use embroidery and focus on order as the key to an artistic programme.
The markedly different artistic practices of the Chilean artist Juan Downey and the Argentinian artist Alejandro Puente explore indigenous traditions.
Artists featured:<\/strong>: Arthur Bispo do Rosario, Alighiero Boetti, Juan Downey, Alejandro Puente.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SHAMANS OF MATERIAL
GRIPPO, BEUYS AND GARC\u00cdA URIBURU<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

The artists in these galleries address universal preoccupations such as work and ecology. The installation by V\u00edctor Grippo Algunos oficios [Some Trades] (1976), from the Moderno collection and Joseph Beuys\u2019 installation, Blitzschlag mit Lichtschein auf Hirsch [Flash of Lightning with Deer] (1958-1985), which is on permanent exhibition at the MMK and is represented here in a series of photographs by Hidegard Weber; \u2018Hommage \u00e0 Beuys \u2013 Lehmwerkstatt Berlin 1982\u2019 \u2013 share ideas about the energy that is produced during the encounter between art and material.
The Argentinian artist Nicol\u00e1s Garc\u00eda Uriburu, meanwhile, shared Beuys\u2019 interest in the environment.
Artists featured:<\/strong>: Joseph Beuys, Nicol\u00e1s Garc\u00eda Uriburu, Victor Grippo, Ana Mendieta, Marta Minuj\u00edn, Bruce Nauman, Richard Serra<\/p>\n\n\n\n
