Quítate tú pa’ ponerme yo!
Alexander Apóstol
09.06.2026 – 29.08.2026
The practice of Alexander Apóstol (Barquisimeto, Venezuela, 1969), who lives and works between Caracas and Madrid, has spent three decades exposing the fractures of the modernist project. With a critical look at his native Venezuela and South American tendencies, he excavates the visual systems through which power performs itself: the colors that identify a political party, the architecture that enshrines a national project, the aesthetic languages that democracy borrows and authority ultimately absorbs.
Quítate tú pa’ ponerme yo! takes its name from a Caribbean colloquial expression rooted in an individualistic mindset that conceives political change as the mere replacement of figures in power rather than a transformation of the underlying structures that sustain them.
Net-traps and wrist flicks
Gabriel Acevedo Velarde
April 21 2026
In this second series of paintings on Nasca culture, Gabriel Acevedo Velarde reflects on current politics within a context of spatial saturation. Since the dawn of the Internet age, the idea of networks that connect us has been celebrated. A recent example is the contemporary romanticization of fungal mycelium.
The artist proposes an alternative path. These are networks like those traps that activate when stepped on and ensnare the people around them in a hanging mass. Acevedo’s motivation is to show that pre-columbian cultures can be revisited in ways that are alternative or complementary to claims of identity.
