Iván Argote
Throughout his career, Iván Argote (Bogotá, 1983) has created a set of works in different formats -videos, photographs, sculptures, drawings and public installations- that propose a reflection on the relations between history, politics, memory and subjectivity. Their arguments are not found in the references of the authority nor in the standardized discourses that are imposed in the public debate, but in the place of the new voices: children, migrants and the marginalized. His work is directly related to the political history of his native country, Colombia, but also to the rest of the Latin American countries and the other regions of the world in which he has worked.
