Agustina Woodgate (Buenos Aires, 1981) The artistic practice of Agustina is focused on the study of systems, the theories of value, power relations and logics operating in society. She traces new mappings dissolving the political limits that organize paradigms, unifies languages by visiting displaced communities, materializes and evidences reigning power relations and denounces forms of domination through her works. She sands maps and bills, draws hopscotch boards, gives a voice to the silenced and work to the unemployed, creates pieces from the discarded and deconstructs major paradigms; her pieces work on the ways institutional poetics and politics organize public and private space, starting from their infrastructure and domination discourse. Utilizing a playful, polysemic, minimalist and blunt language, through sculptures, public interventions and social interactions Woodgate introduces new landscapes that address the audience and resignify the system of existing relationships. In order to do so, she transforms and reinserts the remainders of society in works of art that pave the way for new possibilities of perception and action.
Agustina Woodgate’s projects have been commissioned by the Whitney Biennial, New York; Bienal de las Américas, Denver; ArtPort, Tel Aviv; PlayPublik, Poland; DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities, Washington, DC; The Bass Museum of Art, Miami; Kulturpark, Berlin; Locust Projects, Miami y MassMOCA, Massachusetts; among others. Some of her most recent solo exhibitions include Cosmética (Spinello Projects, 2017), Común y Corriente (Barro, Buenos Aires, 2016), ABC Berlín (Spinello Project, Miami, 2015), Rugs (Arts and Culture Center of Hollywood, Hollywood, 2015). She has held several solo exhibitions in institutions such as the Faena Arts Center (Buenos Aires, 2014), Art and Culture Center of Hollywood (Los Angeles, 2014) and KW Institute for Contemporary Art (Berlin, 2012). Her work was part of the exhibition Disruptions at Collins Park specially commissioned for Art Basel Week (Miami Beach, 2019)Woodgate’s work participated in group exhibitions at The Museum of Contemporary Art North Miami (Miami, 2019), Faena Festival (Miami, 2018), Ideobox Art Space (Miami, 2018), Peabody Essex Museum (Massachusetts, 2018), Bienal 4th Istanbul Design Biennal (Estambul, 2018), Orlando Art Museum (Florida, 2014), Denver Art Museum (Colorado, 2013), White Box, (New York, 2012), Gallery Nosco (London, 2011), Good Children Gallery (New Orleans, 2011), Naples Museum of Art (Florida, 2011), North Carolina Museum (North Carolina, 2011), Montreal Biennale (Canada, 2009) and the Museum of Contemporary Art (Miami, 2007/2015).
