‘Lluís Hortalà - Posar el dit a l’ull’ (A poke in the eye)

Back

Art. The exhibition plays with appearance, acceptance of deception and the replication of reality, the techniques used in art to produce and reproduce images, mirage and the limits of ‘trompe l’œil’, optical illusion and imitation.

Posar el dit a l’ull (A poke in the eye) is a project that presents the work of Lluís Hortalà (Olot, Girona, 1959), which challenges so-called contemporaneity with resources from the pictorial tradition, based on vision as a mechanism for approaching the world.

It operates conceptually, with a certain irony, on the structures that uphold thought and power.

What might seem to be a mere display of virtuosity is in fact a revulsive seeking to challenge us to reflect on the mechanisms of knowledge which cultural and social models are based on.
