Alexander Zuleta

"Zuleta is a visual artist who defies contemporary classifications. Working the techniques of formal painting and other experimental trends of painting as well as the relevance of his sculptures. He practices it in drawing, photography, installation and collage. They are diverse results with the topics you explore. Lyrical, mundane and poetic, within the everyday objects fragility of cultures in Latin America and the world. Plus Readymade. One of the main themes has been a constant study influenced by childhood issues that have led him to investigate the existence of forms, objects and humanity, which make up the subject. And when questioning the reason for them; in space and time. For Zuleta, time and space are a constant search. Since it alters the conventional notions of painting that are taken from reality about art. The works and proposals made have now responded to their personal concerns that derive from conceptual reflections and emotional experiences of their country and outside in public spaces and the questioning of the production of the new globalized world. What has moved him to the daily reunion of objects following a sense of aesthetic beauty. Thus working on various changes from geometric abstraction to objectual concretion and ephemeral interventions of some specific site. His work today is the object of being part of private collections in various parts of the world.”
