Summary:

Dans son travail vidéo, Luiz Roque fusionne son intérêt pour les héritages du modernisme, de la culture pop, de la (bio) politique queer et de la science-fiction en racontant les défis de diverses sous-cultures et communautés socialement précaires, et en imaginant des réalités et des temporalités alternatives. Les installations vidéo sculpturales de Roque explorent la frontière ténue entre la forme et le contenu, dans lesquelles les techniques de tournage et les méthodes de projection et de présentation sont aussi importantes que le sujet qu'elles présentent.

"With the exhibition Estufa, KW Institute for Contemporary Art presents the first mid-career survey of the artist Luiz Roque (b. 1979, BR), curated by Léon Kruijswijk. Roque's practice inhabits a space between expanded cinema, visual art, and critical theory. His artistic methodology fuses an interest in the legacies of modernism, pop culture, queer (bio)politics, and science fiction, as he narrates the challenges faced by various subcultures and socially precarious communities (predominantly Brazilian) to imagine alternative realities"-- Foreword.
