El Ojo Espejo

In this fascinating book, David G. Torres addresses the art of curating an exhibition. Through the careers of artists such as Picasso, Duchamp, Pollock and Bacon, he invites us to see hidden relationships between their respective works, seeks explanations in their biographies, the reasons for certain methods or productions, finds influences among people who seem to have nothing to do with each other and, of course, talks about exhibition spaces and exhibitions themselves: their preparation, their meaning, their insertion in a specific moment and the reception they enjoyed. The result is that, at the same time as he tries to explain what creating an exhibition consists of, he is generating it in the text.
