THE UNKNOWN AND ITS POETICS AT KINOSAITO
The interdisciplinary art center located in New York presents work shaped by the experience of relating to the foreign in order to build a unique identity.
KinoSaito presents The Unknown and Its Poetics, a show curated by Adrián S. Bará that brings together works by international artists who live or have lived away from their home country and whose production has been marked by cross-cultural influences. These artists’ abstract work engages experiences and identities related to the unknown and the construction of home.
The group of artists included in this exhibition shares the ability to communicate the importance of the small poetic gesture and to explore what we call reality through the language of abstraction. As the Italian painter Giorgio Morandi once said, “Nothing is more abstract than reality.”
With works in a variety of media, the exhibition will span the entire art center and address relationships between cultures, languages, political systems, life under globalization, individuality, and liberation.
The participating artists are Emanuel Tovar Andrade, Adrián S. Bará, Peter Brock, Tomás Díaz Cedeño, Edgar Cobián, Juan Pablo González, Ricardo González, Cynthia Gutiérrez, Elana Herzog, Melissa Joseph, Fawn Krieger, Liza Lacroix, Juliana Cerqueira Leite, Alejandro Almanza Pereda, Pepe López Reus, Juan De la Cruz Sánchez, Lucía Vidales, Michael Kelly Williams, and Liat Yossifor.
The Unknown and Its Poetics will be on display until December 21, 2025, at KinoSaito, 115 7th Street, P.O. Box 653, Verplanck, New York (United States).
