ARCO 2024: A conversation with Amalia Pica
Welcome to Women Artists from Latin America, a podcast by Amalgama, celebrating the voices and visions of contemporary Latin American artists. This season, recorded live at Madrid’s ARCO contemporary art fair in March 2024, offers insightful conversations with the creative minds shaping today’s art world.
In this episode, host Daniela Galan speaks with London-based Argentinian artist Amalia Pica, known for her multidisciplinary practice spanning sculpture, performance, installation, video, and drawing. While Pica often explores themes of communication and human connection, her work at ARCO takes a humorous and thoughtful look at bureaucracy and migration systems, uncovering the unexpected pleasures found in paperwork and administrative processes.
With her characteristic wit, Pica reimagines our relationship with everyday objects-from household items to official documents-challenging us to see the familiar in new and thought-provoking ways. She also draws from her experiences as a mother, reflecting on how children view and engage with art, and how this fresh perspective can reshape our understanding of work and daily life.
Pica’s work has been exhibited globally, with pieces in prestigious collections such as Tate (London), MoMA (New York), and the Guggenheim (New York). You may also recognise her public sculptures in London, Amsterdam, and Chapel Hill.
Join us for a captivating conversation that invites you to explore the wit, beauty, and deeper meaning hidden in the everyday.
Listen now and discover how art can transform even the most ordinary moments!

    A Varo is nothing but embiment of her NarcisiSStic , selfcenteted Mother ... so She found femSSm as a beautiful ideology towlk over different loving men and use THEM as a tools to advance in life. Another Tamara lampicka ... Those paintings are nothing but ilustrations of fn*ss's books... in a stly of H. Bosh + Dali + few others ...

    3:27 exactly represents a manipulative Tower of modern fimSSm .... where the subjects of this indoctrination and Brain-washing has ZERO Ability to undetstand the words of ..the " oponents" - because they are brainwashed withint The TOWER by fSSs .... to see anything different from herself as an Enemy ... (* and not a complementary codependent and potential partner ... ln healthy InterDependance dance (!!!) of LIFE . "A LIFE" ....a misterious force - that wants you to put All your SelfCentered drives behind selfserving Granduiose: "YOU" .... .... to REPLICATE ! ..and produce New LIFE ..... and continue the existance of LIFE ... ). .... NOT barren homes .... with 2 screvd up self-centered narcisisstic Consumers watching Each other stroking their Egos.

    You are poised, engaging and succinct and your analysis was both easily digestible and sufficiently intellectual (a feat not easy to pull off, my congratulations). If you aren't a teacher or professor, you should be. Well done. Thank you for the content.
