Iosu Aramburu
The work of Iosu Aramburu (born in Lima in 1986) revolves around modernity as an aesthetic, architectural and philosophical paradigm. From the reinterpretations of modern languages, Aramburu seeks to question the failures of the modern project. He explores abstraction and modernist architecture, using its elements as a starting point. From the materiality of his work, the artist reduces the totalitarian impetus of modern art and recovers aesthetic patterns so that he has a critical angle to the paradigm of modernity.
