Exhibition summary

This exhibition showcases the work of Abigail Lazkoz, an artist known for her 'expanded drawing' techniques, where drawings extend autonomously into the exhibition space. The show explores unexpected connections between her work and pieces from the collections of Museo ABC and Fundación Banco Santander, including works by Joan Miró and writings by Ramón Gómez de la Serna.

Curatorial context

Abigail Lazkoz's exhibition 'Parajes Incultos' is part of the 'Conexiones' (Connections) exhibition series, a joint project by Museo ABC and Fundación Banco Santander. This series invites artists with strong ties to drawing to create specific works based on selected pieces from the institutions' collections, seeking to uncover unexpected yet revealing relationships. Lazkoz's artistic practice is fundamentally rooted in drawing. While initially linked to comic and illustration registers, she soon began to explore its potential for spatial deployment, becoming a pioneer in what is known as 'expanded drawing' in Spain. For this exhibition, she has chosen a painting by Joan Miró, 'Personnage' (1973) from the Banco Santander Collection, and nine 'greguerías' by Ramón Gómez de la Serna, selected from the ABC Collection. The exhibition highlights the distinct, personal connections that emerge from observing everyday life through the artist's unique perspective.
