#ArtissimaPresents: enjoy our curated sections presentation, while waiting for the fair! For their participation at #Artissima2019 ► Section Present Future ► @gallleriapiu is pleased to present DÉBORA DELMAR ► In the picture: Daily Mirror (Instagram Archive), @jennygxo, 2019 — Working under the pseudonym Debora Delmar Corp., the Mexican-born/New York-educated artist critically examines and subverts the aesthetics and modes of communication behind today’s political landscape of late capitalism. The languages of advertising, celebrity culture and consumerism intertwine in a curious universe of images, material desires and bodily anxieties. They are alluring and humorous, but never forget the political critique motivating these appropriations. The platinum blonde artist dedicates herself fully to the study of consumer culture, even in terms of her own mode of distribution: omnipresent, she operates online and offline through a variety of mediums from Prezi presentations to virtual credit cards; from juice bars to mixed media sculpture. In "Upward Mobility" at Modern Art Oxford–her first solo show in the United Kingdom–Delmar explores the aesthetics of class aspiration, as seen in Mexico, globally and on the internet. Sleek caught up with Debora before the opening of "Upward Mobility". — #staytuned #Artissima26 #ArtissimaPF #art #artfair #artecontemporanea #contemporaryart #fiera #fair #collectors #artgallery #galleriadarte #Torino #Turin #artist #instaart #arte #exhibition #contemporary #artcollector #contemporaryartist #collecting
