Damián Ortega - The Independent

The Curve, Barbican Art Gallery, 15 October 2010 – 6 February 2011

The latest commission in The Curve is an ambitious installation by acclaimed Mexican artist Damián Ortega.

For 31 days Ortega has set himself the challenge of creating a new sculpture over 24 hours. Each sculpture will be inspired by an item culled from the newspaper of that day: whether a news story, a photograph, or a graphic.

For the final week of this period visitors will have the unusual opportunity of watching the artist at work, in situ, in the gallery. For further information contact Ann Berni on 020 7382 7169 / .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address)
