ART OF THE WEEK

2 - 8 September 2013  
    

Carroña (Carrion) (2011) by Barcelona-based artist Javier Pérez (b. Bilbao, Spain, 1968).

 “I like dealing with points of encounter between spirit and flesh, between purity and impurity, between beauty and horror, between attraction and repulsion. I frequently use these swinging movements to offer onlookers different degrees of appreciation of my works. My works seek to reconcile all these aspects..."   Javier Pérez
