  • Genre: Art & Architecture

Waltercio Caldas (born 1946) is one of Brazil’s most recognized and respected contemporary artists. He occupies a key role in the generation that bridges the historical innovations of the Concrete and Neo-Concrete artists of the 1950 and ’60s and today’s younger artists

In this ninth volume of the Conversaciones series, writer, curator and art historian Ariel Jiménez engages Caldas in a lively dialogue covering more than five decades of artistic production, exploring the connections between perception and history, and the way in which artist, viewer, context and history all play roles in how art is seen and experienced. Combining a formal intelligence, eclectic materials and provocative games, Caldas’ works raise subtle questions about the unique nature of art and its place in a world of redundancy.

Waltercio Caldas (n. 1946) es uno de los artistas contemporáneos más reconocidos y respetados de Brasil. Caldas jugó un papel clave en la generación que tiende un puente entre las innovaciones históricas de los artistas concretos y neo-concretos de la década de 1950 y 60 y los artistas más jóvenes de hoy.
 
En este noveno volumen de la serie Conversaciones, el escritor, curador e historiador del arte Ariel Jiménez sostiene un dinámico diálogo con Caldas que abarca más de cinco décadas de producción artística, explorando las conexiones entre la percepción y la historia, y la manera en la que el artista, el espectador, el contexto y la historia juegan un papel en la manera en que se ve y se experimenta el arte. Combinando una inteligencia formal, materiales eclécticos y juegos provocadores, las obras de Caldas plantean preguntas sutiles sobre la naturaleza única del arte y su lugar en un mundo de redundancia.
