Cámara#1 / Imaginante popular


01.06.2019 The exhibition is a succinct journey across the various kindred periods that the distinctive work of Lido Iacopetti has been unfolding for more than half a century. Some artists spend all their life behind a single piece, polishing an idea until it disintegrates into the experience itself. Iacopetti’s case is one of the exceptions; an artist that was not a canonical part of any timeline, but who was eventually proved right by the passing of time. In his work, there are noticeable traces of the format and mood of projects as diverse and genuine as Economía Colaborativa or Belleza y Felicidad. Without overindulging, Iacopetti naturally combines playfulness and the ethics of its social function, always prioritizing alternative and modest exhibition spaces: his pieces are equally present around schools, hospitals, museums, galleries, small clubs and street stores.
