Exhibition « La Magia De La Risa Y El Juego », Buenos Aires, Argentina
The concept of the exhibition set starts from the consideration that most of the small heads were casted from originals and produced in series and even the original artworks show an incredible homogeneity of styles and techniques.
So we wanted to deal with seriality and demonstrate that a serial way to exhibit would have helped to understand the differences and peculiarities without diminishing the interest for the lively expressions of each face.
The exhibition is therefore conceived on one line and all the heads are shown under equal conditions of light inside some plexi-glass parallelepipeds of huge length fixed at walls.
By contrast the colossal Olmec Head stands alone among the museum iron cast columns in a kind of splendid isolation.
