Mario García Torres
-
Mario García Torres is a conceptual artist who engages with various media in his practice, including film, sound, performance, what he refers to as “museographic installations”, and video. García Torres often cites untold or minor histories, with a predilection for avant-garde art and music from the 1960s and 70s as departing points for his work. He has recreated historical exhibitions and has even ‘completed’ unfinished artworks, often blurring original and reenactment, past and present, while questioning universal ideas about truth, certainty and time – all core ideas in the development of his body of work.
