Guillermo Kuitca. Das Lied von der Erde

Guillermo Kuitca (born in Buenos Aires in 1961) is one of Latin America's most important contemporary artists. Architecture, theatre, literature, music, and cartography play a central part in Kuitca's work. From maps, town plans and architectural drawings the artist creates imaginary poetic and territorial worlds in which reality and fiction merge. Redrawing the map of the world, Kuitca brings to light complex spatial relationships and intricate social processes.

The major exhibition at Daros Exhibitions in Zurich provides a representative overview of Kuitca’s wide-ranging paintings and drawings. It unites works from the Daros-Latinamerica Collection with loans from the Tate Gallery, London and the Milwaukee Art Museum.
