Artist Talk by Mario Santamaría
Thursday, 28 April 2022 7pm
We are very happy to have artist Mario Santamaría give a talk at /rosa on 28 April at 7 pm. Mario Santamaria's practice engages with narratives told about technologies and the manifestations of networks that are often claimed to be disembodied and ephemeral.
His 2019 work Cloudplexity - a series of drawings made to represent the Internet extracted from the U.S. Patent database - has just recently been on display at C/O in Berlin. At /rosa Santamaria will talk about his practice and introduce us to some of his new and lesser known works.
Come join us for the talk and drinks on Thursday, 28 April, 7 pm at /rosa, Rosa-Luxemburg-Straße 35, 10178 Berlin.
