Iosu Aramburu
Iosu Aramburu (b. 1986, Lima, Peru) lives and works in Peru. He studied Painting at the Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, graduating with honors.
His work 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 abs- traction 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.
