Description: Oscar Murillo, Hardcover by Murillo, Oscar (ART); Schneider, Anna (EDT), ISBN 1941701663, ISBN-13 9781941701669, Brand New, Free shipping in the US With a body of powerful paintings, dynamic installations, and hauntingly poetic video works, Oscar Murillo has distinguished himself as one of his generation's leading voices. Published on the occasion of Murillo's 2017 solo exhibition at Haus der Kunst in Munich, this volume''the first dedicated overview of his astonishing career to date''presents the artist's multifaceted practice from every angle. Born in Colombia, Murillo became widely recognized in his early twenties for his large-scale paintings that drew freely on both personal as well as art-historical references and influences. Since then, Murillo has been consistently interested in approaches to art making that are not rooted in the dominant Western value system, while remaining guided by his own aesthetic, rather than political messages or other, more reductive narratives. With numerous exhibitions at major museums and galleries, as well as ambitious projects at lesser-known exhibition spaces in Anyang (South Korea), Baku (Azerbaijan), Marrakech (Morocco), and Sharjah (United Arab Emirates), Murillo puts his politics of inclusivity to work without needing to make the work itself overtly political. In positioning himself between worlds'the art world, his family and community, peripheral spaces he seeks to inhabit'murillo has made room for a new visual language, one that draws as easily and subversively on his personal narratives and the narratives around the places he has visited, as it does on traditional vocabularies of painting, installation, and sculpture. With an introduction by Okwui Enwezor and new scholarship by Anna Schneider and Emma Enderby, this publication offers critical insight into Murillo's complex, vibrant body of work that continually offers enriching, powerful observations of the world around us.
