Deconstrucción: vida, política y arte en el FROST
Por Janet Batet | Especial/el Nuevo Herald

Como parte de las celebraciones por su décimo aniversario, el Museo de Arte Patricia y Phillip Frost de la FIU presenta al público la muestra colectiva Deconstruction: A reordering of life, politics, and art. Integrada por 12 artistas locales (Eddie Arroyo, Zachary Balber, Frida Baranek, Christopher Carter, Leyden Rodríguez-Casanova, Yanira Collado, Gonzalo Fuenmayor, Pepe Mar, Glexis Novoa, Sandra Ramos, Jamilah Sabur y Frances Trombly), Deconstrucción: Un reordenamiento de la vida, la política y el arte – como bien indica el subtítulo -, es un guiño al libro de Guy Debord, La sociedad del espectáculo (1967), en el que el aclamado ensayista avizora la mediación entre imagen, tecnología y experiencia directa del acontecer. Deconstrucción… acoge temas de actualidad tanto a nivel local como global. Si bien la muestra está integrada, en su mayoría, por obras pre-existentes, cuatro de los artistas incluidos (Christopher Carter, Yanira Collado, Gonzalo Fuenmayor y Pepe Mar) han creado obras específicamente para la misma.

Composed of 12 local artists (Eddie Arroyo, Zachary Balber, Frida Baranek, Christopher Carter, Leyden Rodriguez-Casanova, Yanira Collado, Gonzalo Fuenmayor, Pepe Mar, Glexis Novoa, Sandra Ramos, Jamilah Sabur and Frances Trombly), Deconstruction: A reordering of life, politics and art – as the subtitle clearly indicates – is a nod to Guy Debord’s book, The Society of Spectacle (1967), in which the acclaimed essayist foresees the mediation between image, technology and the direct experience of what is happening. Deconstruction … welcomes current issues both locally and globally. Although the sample is integrated, in its majority, by pre-existing works, four of the included artists (Christopher Carter, Yanira Collado, Gonzalo Fuenmayor and Pepe Mar) have created works specifically for the same.
