Fauna de las Cuatro Torres

"'Fauna de las Cuatro Torres' is the site specific proposal by Amalia Ulman (Buenos Aires, 1989) for the Center del Carme Cultura Contemporània within the project started in 2016, 'Privilege': a live and online performance that the artist follows expanding into a wide variety of formats. Ulman presents herself on social media as an exaggerated, almost cartoonish version of herself: a businesswoman, always in the office or similar environments. In this project the artist questions the status and instability of the self, notions of authenticity, the relationship between reality and fiction, and contemporary social and labor relations. During the performance, Ulman created an incessant series of visual materials--from showing her pregnancy to the presence of an alter ego, Bob the pigeon--that reflect the evolution of memetic culture. For this occasion, the artist presents an immersive installation, an intervention in space that provokes the viewer to become an active part of the performance"--Museum's website viewed February 8, 2024.
