Jimena Fuertes
Bio
Born in Buenos Aires, 1972. Visual artist. Its production starts within of contemporary
geometric abstraction, which he approaches from a staff. His works propose
situations and games based on geometric figures, contour lines, a certain
distance from the wall and the variation of saturated colors.
Progressively his poetry has been looking for the ambient space to expand
from the wall or freely with direct support on the flat. Recently, he has also found
sound and lighting as intervention elements in his environmental compositions.
He has dedicated himself in a special way to social management in initiatives
that link art with the community.
He has made individual exhibitions and has participated in group exhibitions
and awards in the country and abroad.
Statement
Jimena Fuertes
Born in Buenos Aires, 1972. Visual artist. His production is part of contemporary geometric abstraction, which he approaches from a personal path. His works propose situations and games based on figures such as the triangle, the octagon, trapezoids, and others, especially based on contour lines, a certain distance from the wall and the variation of saturated colors. Progressively, his poetics has been looking for the ambient space to expand from the wall or in a free way with direct support on the floor. In recent times he has also found sound as an element of intervention as in his environmental compositions, such as the electronic music of the minimalist composer Eliane Radigue, Paris, 1932. He has dedicated himself in a special way to social management initiatives that link art with the community. He has made individual exhibitions and has participated in collective and awards in the country and abroad. My work forms part of the collections of MACBA (Contemporary Art Museum of Buenos Aires), the Contemporary Art Museum of Salta (Argentina), as well as private collections, Agustín Premrou, Cecilia Caballero, Eduardo Mallea y Cecilia Perazzo, Debbie Frydman, Juan Manuel Rocca
