Santiago Sierra 26 May - 13 August 2006

CAC Málaga presents Santiago Sierra’s first solo exhibition at a Spanish art centre or museum. Sierra is the only Spaniard in the hundred most influential artists in the world according to Capital magazine. The show features a total of 1,354 black and white photographs, seven videos, a psychophony, jewels and other works illustrating the creative process behind the last four interventions in this artist’s professional career: The Corridor in the House of the People (Bucharest, Rumania, 2005), 245 m3 (Stommeln, Germany, 2006), The Punished (Frankfurt, Germany, 2006) and Jewellery Collection (Madrid, Spain, 2006). The exhibition, directed by Fernando Francés and curated by Helena Juncosa, is wholly produced by CAC Málaga itself.

The most controversial artist of the day leaves no one indifferent. His courage leads him to confront such issues as prostitution, immigration, poverty, racism, violence and war in places where their meaning takes on singular nuances.

Exposition of Jason Rhoades at CAC Malaga

Jason Rhoades


CAC Málaga presents the first solo exhibition in a Spanish art centre or museum by the Californian artist Jason Rhoades. Tijuanatanjerchandelier is a site-specific project for the CAC Málaga centre that continues the themes of Rhoades’ previous work, principally focusing on the exploration of the mixture of cultures and female sexuality through hundreds of objects and neon lights that take over the exhibition space completely. The programme for the official opening of the project, is directed by Fernando Francés, curated by Helena Juncosa and produced exclusively for Málaga’s Centre for Contemporary Art, will include a performance.


Jason Rhoades has created an exhibition based on the final part of his trilogy especially for CAC Málaga. In it, the Californian artist constructs a universe bringing together symbols and icons from different cultures and religions which find their nexus in four frontier cities and towns: Tijuana (Mexico), Tangiers (Morocco), Los Angeles (United States) and Málaga (Spain). These connections are brought out through an odd jumble of objects and coloured neon signs spelling out different names given to the vagina in Spanish and English, illustrating the linguistic and cultural wealth in the Anglo-Latin territories. Rhoades has made a list of more than 7,000 expressions in his quest to compile an inventory of terminology for referring to the vagina. Of these, some 300 expressions are in Spanish, and many of these can be admired in the project the artist has created for CAC Málaga.
