Danilo Dueñas: Art Kabinett at Art Basel Miami Beach
December 5 to 8, 2013

Galerie Thomas Schulte
Art Basel Miami Beach
Booth C18
Miami, FL, USA

Danilo Dueñas composes his constructive paintings by assembling found, often discarded materials and intervening, when necessary, with paint, without limiting himself to a given format. He explores the surfaces and transforms them by suppressing or adding color, by sanding them down or by adding collage elements. For the Art Kabinett, Danilo Dueñas presents a selection of new works in different media, such as collages and works on paper.

On painting

A wall, the painting, the floor, the ceiling, the mist in the room.

The organ, the flute, the hemlock.

The truth, the specter, the real.

What is it that lives?, said the hare to the tortoise, is it the hemlock or the rose? The rose said, it is me, I shall always live, whilst the room shall grow and the sound shall ring in our ears. But my life shall never cease. Please testify to this never-ending truth and you too, shall live as me.

 
Traducido del inglés

Sobre la pintura

Un muro, la pintura, el piso, el techo, la neblina en la habitación.

El órgano, la flauta, la cicuta.

La verdad, el espectro, lo real.

¿Qué es lo que vive?, dijo la liebre a la tortuga, ¿es la cicuta o la rosa? La rosa dijo,

soy yo, siempre viviré, mientras que la habitación crezca y el sonido repique en nuestros oídos. Pero mi vida nunca terminará. Favor de testificar a esta verdad sinfín y tú también vivirás como yo.
