Carlos Amorales & Joan Jonas

A conversation about how the artists first met, as student and teacher, and other contemporary subjects linked to their work.Our guest, Joan Jonas, is a world-renowned artist from New York whose work encompasses a wide range of media. Her experiments and productions in the late 1960s and early 1970s continue to be crucial to the development of many contemporary art genres, from performance and video to conceptual art and theater. Since 1968, her practice has explored ways of seeing, the rhythms of rituals, and the authority of objects and gestures.Carlos Amorales is interested mainly in language and the impossibility or possibility of communicating through means that are unrecognizable or not codified, like sounds, gestures, and symbols. His practice is based on different forms of translation: instruments that become characters, letters that become shapes, and narratives that unfold as non-verbal actions. FUTURE DIALOGUES, a series of conversations between artists and creatives organized and hosted by kurimanzutto and supported by Casa Dragones.
