AMBASSADE DU BRESIL-PALAIS PEREDA, BUENOS AIRES, ARGENTINA From 26/06/2019 to 30/10/2019
How much do the spaces we inhabit say about us? What forms do such spaces take? In what way do they reflect our lifestyle? If the home is the border limit between outside and inside, public and private, safety and uncertainty, “home” is also the projection of our own body (and in particular our mind) as a kind of microcosm which with to dispute the immensity of the universe. In the context of this exhibition, we conceive of home as a space-time where we unfurl the experience of inhabitation, anchoring men and women’s primary desire to occupy a place in the world, which is also the springboard for imagination to take flight.
GUGGENHEIM BILBAO, BILBAO, SPAINFrom 5/12/2017 to 15/04/2018
The point of departure of Art and Space is the collaboration between Basque sculptor Eduardo Chillida and German philosopher Martin Heidegger in 1969, which resulted in the publication of an artist book whose title inspired that of this exhibition. By updating and fleshing out concepts and questions embedded in that extraordinary dialogue, this show presents more than 100 works by international artists and offers itself as a reinterpretation of the history of abstraction in the past six decades.
MUDAC, LAUSANNE, SWITZERLANDFrom 5/31/2017 to 10/01/2017
The exhibition Mirror Mirror takes the form of a series of chapters and aims to bridge the microscopic gap separating our image from our being. Our reflection is utterly specific, making it undoubtedly the most complex of all images. In it, recognition and illusion are confused, giving rise to an inner disorder linked to our constant desire to read our identity here. Each chapter tackles a specific theme relating to the mirror or reflections, and presents an array of design objects, complemented by others from the worlds of contemporary art and photography. Artists, whether famous or emerging, offer their take on the idea which, on the frozen surface of the window, now defines our being in the world.
DOMAINE POMMERY, REIMS, FRANCEFrom 10/14/2016 to 5/31/2017

MAISON PARTICULIERE, BRUSSELS, BELGIUM From 10/06/2016 to 4/30/2017
From “Where do we come from?” to “Where are we going?” From beginning to end, from origins to eternity, such is the guiding theme and framework of the exhibition, From here to eternity. In his works, guest artist Angelo Musco tirelessly explores the cycles of existence: birth—a recurrent theme in his work; origins and evolution ; the metamorphoses of the human being and nature; mystery; and abysses. Accompanying Angelo Musco on his journey are works, among others from Chiharu Shiota and Ivan Navarro, that encounter his, engaging in a dialogue and free falling weightlessly into an open space with no beginning or end. Existence can therfore be the intertwining of connections and relationships, sometimes due to chance, other times intentional, like the threads that are woven and (out)stretched, as in the work by Chiaru Shiota.
BIRSIGTUNNEL, ART BASEL, BASEL, SWITZERLANDFrom 06/13/2016 to 06/19/2016
‘Traffic’ is a mobile composed of seven pairs of traffic lights that loop continuously from soft green to yellow to red. By employing the lights in this way, Navarro detaches a ubiquitous element from daily life and transforms it into a new perpetual experience, igniting an unconscious awareness of something that in ordinary use conditions the public’s psychological behavior.
FONDATION VILLA DATRIS, L’ISLE-SUR-LA-SORGUE, FRANCE From 5/06/2016 to 11/01/2016
