Un Lugar Fuera de la Historia, A Place Out Of History

Magali Arriola

Mexico, Colour, Dolby Digital and other, 2018, Color, 42’

World Premiere

What if Art History was a story first? Magali Arriola, a curator herself, sets up an interrogation and summons the curiously intertwined lives of artists, art historians and grandiose counterfeiters: Tina Modotti, Fernand Legros, Henry Moore, Anthony Blunt, Ian Flemming, Han van Meegeren, Elmyr de Hory, Welles (the ghost of F for Fake hovers around), so she can turn them into characters of a labyrinthic and orgasmic enquiry leading Art back to political, historical and personal contingencies.
