25 Mar PORTALS OF THE SYMBOLIC 🗓 🗺
Transversal visit with Demian Mondragón from La Consultoría
In this tour of Ugo Rondinone’s exhibition long last happy, we will explore the profound connections between the artist’s works and the world of symbols, the unconscious, and psychology.
Rondinone’s participatory sculptures and drawings of the sun and moon will act as portals to access the symbolic plane and interpret the works from the perspective of the collective unconscious. In this way, we will analyze our own relationship with the cosmos, the importance of imagination in childhood, and resilience, using examples from art history and psychological approaches to these topics.
