This exhibition dedicated to Alberto Corazón, runs his artistic production since the late sixties to the present through 29 works including paintings, sculptures and conceptual works, selected by the artist from the collection of the Institut Valencia d’Art Modern (IVAM). Corazón exhibited at the IVAM in 2008 and donated to the museum 47 works.
In spite of the fact that he is considered one of the pioneers of Spanish conceptual art, this cycle of his oeuvre is not well enough known, so this exhibition provides a new opportunity to appreciate his experimental contributions to that movement in all their complexity.
Corazón reflects about the relationship between drawing and colour, representation and archetype, eidetic construction and retinal formulas. In his recent works, he continues with his ideas about perception and iconography and, at the same time, within his cultured painting, he addresses compositional problems closely linked to the iconic identity of the genre and its understanding.
