[spectre] Profile of a Peruvian Woman. Event in memory of Teresa Burga

[Jose-Carlos Mariategui]

The Lima Art Museum (Museo de Arte de Lima) presents "Profile of a Peruvian
Woman. Event in memory of Teresa Burga”.

Teresa Burga (Iquitos, 1935 - Lima, 2021), was a pioneer artist in Latin
American conceptualism and one of the most prominent figures in
contemporary Peruvian art. Since the 1960’s, Burga has produced a complex
body of work that ranges from drawings, paintings, and sculptures,
multimedia installations and experimental projects.

This 16th and 21st of June we invite you to two virtual talks with the
participation of recognised national and international specialists, who
will promote a reflection on the legacy of this unique artist who passed
away this past February, and thus continue to disseminate her work.

sexuality.
Wednesday, 16th of June, 4 p.m. (Lima)
Zoom Webinar and Facebook

A talk focused on Burga’s visual repertoire produced from the sixties
onwards, a work that breaks with the patriarchal schemes of the decade to
question and reflect on the forms of women representation, sexuality, and
possibilities of female empowerment through art, positioning her as a
Peruvian, Latin American artist, who addresses questions ahead of her time.

Structures, proposals and reports. The experimental work of Teresa Burga
Monday, June 21, 4 p.m. (Lima)
Zoom Webinar and Facebook

This session will look into Teresa Burga’s projects carried out from the
seventies onwards, when she develops a work logic focused on conceptual
experimentation towards new creative strategies, making use of scientific
records and new information technologies for the production of works in
paper, diagrams and instructions in pieces such as Estructuras al aire
[Structures of air] (1970), Autorretrato. Estructura Informe. 9.6.72
[Self-portrait. Report Structure. 9.6.72] (1972), 1972), Obra que
desaparece cuando el espectador trata de acercarse [Work That Disappears
When the Spectator Tries to Approach It] (1970-2006), which allows its
spatial formulation in installations.
Participants:
Agustín Pérez Rubio

José-Carlos Mariátegui
Moderated by Támira Bassallo
