Known for employing rich materials to sculpt anthropomorphic and proto-human figures, Adrián Villar Rojas is sharing a series of new commissions and recontextualized artworks in the exhibition “The End of Imagination.” As is typical for Villar Rojas’s multimedia practice, the exhibition exists as an immersive space within an alternate reality, employing ideas of past and future, along with materials ranging from marble and fossils, to furniture, fire, ramps, and reproduced body parts of iconic statues. Along with the Argentine artist’s surreal spaces arise ideas around the fleeting nature of life and humanity’s ephemerality.
