About the artist
Adrián Villar Rojas (Rosario, Argentina, 1980. Lives and works nomadically) conceives long term projects, collectively and collaboratively produced, that take the shape of large-scale and site-specific installations, both imposing and fragile. Within his research, which mixes sculpture, drawing, video, literature and performative traces, the artist explores the conditions of a humanity at risk, on the verge of extinction or already extinct, tracing the multi-species boundaries of a post-anthropocene time folded in on itself, in which past, present and future converge. Selected solo exhibitions include the Art Gallery of New South Wales, Sydney (2022); The Bass, Miami (2022); The Geffen Contemporary at MOCA, Los Angeles (2017); Kunsthaus Bregenz, Austria (2017); and The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York (2017). He has also been featured in major international group exhibitions and biennials at the Pinault Collection, Paris (2024); the 12th and 13th Gwangju Biennale, South Korea (2020 and 2018); dOCUMENTA (13), Kassel and Kabul (2012); The New Museum Triennial, New York (2012); and the 54th Venice Biennale, Argentina’s National Pavilion, Italy (2011).
