Mario Garcia Torres: poetics and artworks
The curator Aman Mojadidi explains the poetics and artworks of Mario Garcia Torres, one of the 5 artists inside the exhibition «Qatra Qatra/Drop by Drop. Perspectives from Afghanistan» at Gallerie delle Prigioni in Treviso, until January 9, 2022.<br /><br />Mario Garcia Torres (Monclova, Messico, 1975) is a conceptual artist using various media, including film, sound, performance, ‘museographic installations’ and video. Garcia Torres refers to untold or ‘minor’ histories (the stories told live and that do not enter the official news) as departing points for his work, while questioning universal ideas about truth, certainty and time. He has re-created historical exhibitions and even ‘completed’ unfinished artworks, blurring original and reenactment, past and present. In the early 2000s, García Torres stopped dating his works as a way of undermining the narrative that a career, and the works produced within it, is the result of a progressive evolution over time.

Having left Afghanistan after the Soviet invasion in 1979, Abdul lived in India and Germany before settling in the United States (in Los Angeles). She received Bachelor of Arts degrees in both Political Science and Philosophy before completing a Master of Fine Arts at the University of California in 2000.
