Abstract

In this piece entitled "Drawings in water" the artist, through artistic experimentation, argues that we live surrounded by infinitely rich historical archives that are only waiting to be labeled by describing the information they contain. The labels will help to protect the information since evaporation is history's worst enemy.

German-born Uruguayan artist Luis Camnitzer (Lübeck, Germany, 1937) is one of the key figures of Latin American conceptual artist who has developed a prolific oeuvre ( as essayist, art critic, exhibition curator, pedagogue, lecturer, and creator of actions and objects) focused on the transformative capacity of art, which he considers, in essence, a product of reflection.
