Lo[s] Cinético[s]

A desire to introduce movement as a plastic element, whether in a real way with electrical and mechanical means, or in a virtual way, with optical techniques, has been a constant in 20th-century art. Motion, speed as a reference for modernity and machinery as a symbol of technological progress have been present in avant-garde discourse from the very beginning.

This exhibition aims to map the representation of this desire for movement in art from two basic standpoints.The first defines and tracks kinetic work through the history of art, from the onset of modernity to recent times, though with a transverse perspective rather than by keeping to the strict periods and classifications established traditionally. The second attempts to reinterpret the range and significance of Kineticism as Latin America’s “own” contribution to the general discourse of modern art.
