Up and Down: Popular Culture is a group exhibition marking the 12th anniversary of SC Gallery in Bilbao. Featuring works by Alberto Montes, Mikel Del Río, Pablo Merchante, and Sebas Velasco, the exhibition examines the traditional boundaries between high and low culture, reinterpreting these concepts through the lens of contemporary aesthetics and the massive influence of modern technology and pop imagery. The collection of paintings invites a re-evaluation of how art occupies and interprets the world, particularly following the global pandemic. The exhibition moves beyond traditional geopolitical power structures, focusing instead on themes of survival, daily life, and the immediate necessity found in a globalized reality. Through their distinct painting styles, the four artists engage with iconographic models and the concept of copying, proposing a renewed vision of art in a dystopian, modern context.
