Summary:

In this retrospective, artist Aldo Chaparro (Perú 1965, nationalized Mexican) not only presents his artistic production, especially his sculptural work, but also his cultural influences, his forays into the publishing field and his explorations of the intersection between arts and design. Throughout the years, Aldo Chaparro's work seeks to make new possibilities contained in the materials, the shapes, the techniques, the processes, from which the concepts spring. Apart from his stubborn relationship with physical material (such as those pieces that emerge from a conflict with steel or wood) Aldo Chaparro also deals with intangible materials such as artistic concepts and the protocols of the art world and his collaborative works (with the music band Plastilina Mosh, with the writer Mario Bellatin, or, trans-temporarily, with his father, José Chaparro).The artist also rethinks the distinctions between art and design or contemplation and functionality, like with his Table for galleries or MCHF, his wall painting for exhibition halls. In Aparador Cuchilla, he recreates his study in Mexico City, and offers us the opportunity to see the work of many artists (Pablo Ravina)
