A+RC Public Lecture by Javier Téllez - Francisco Valero La Cruz, the Rat Man
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 гру 2023
- The lecture will center on the work of Francisco Valero La Cruz, a Venezuelan artist who is unfortunately still absent in all the historiographies of European and Latin American art. Valero La Cruz who was born in 1933 in Merida, Venezuela, lived in Madrid from 1955 to 1962 and moved afterwards to Paris, where all his traces disappeared. He became known in the sixties for a series of happenings of subversive nature that frequently caused him problems with the authorities, such as his attack with a bag full of live rats to the president of Italy in the XXI Venice Biennale of 1962. The radical nature of the brief but intense work of Valero La Cruz devoted to fervently attacking the principles that sustain the artistic institution precedes what will later be called institutional critique. His sabotages to the art world of his time carried out a scathing critique of the distribution and consumption systems of the artistic object that is still valid today.

His work reflects a sustained interest in bringing peripheral communities and invisible situations to the fore of contemporary art addressing disabilities and mental illness as marginalizing conditions.
