ERICK MEYENBERG

Erick Meyenberg (CDMX, 1980) is an interdisciplinary visual artist who sees painting as a fundamental element of expression, although he also explores other media such as sound installation, drawing, collage, video and performance. In his work, he shows a special interest in literature, history, social sciences, and natural sciences.

For Meyenberg art is a tool that helps unearth that accumulation of historical layers that are forgotten, making all the elements come into play to get to an ‘aesthetic whole’.

He considers the editing process essential in his work. It is there where he explores the aesthetic potential of images, where he plays with the possibilities they offer, their relationships, and through precise observations, he discovers new meanings, new ideas.

Meyenberg is a graduate of the National School of Plastic Arts. He has a Master’s degree in Visual Arts from the University of the Arts, Berlin, Germany (UdK, Berlin) where he studied under the mentorship of German artist Rebecca Horn.

His work is part of some public collections such as the MUAC of the UNAM, the Amparo Museum, the Instituto Nacional de Bellas Artes (INBA), the Telefónica Foundation, (Mexico) and the Benetton Foundation, (Italy).

He has participated in numerous group and individual exhibitions nationally and internationally.

Currently he is part of the National System of Creators (FONCA).

Erick lives and works in Mexico City.

SEBASTIÁN ROMO

Sebastián Romo (Mexico City, 1973) is a consecrated visual artist whose work has toured national and international museums and art rooms.

Through different media, such as sculpture, drawing, and photography, she explores notions about space, time, and memory linked to matter, origin, and the intangible.

His work, which ranges from sculpture, drawing and photography, to cinema and large-format installation, has led him to exhibit in museums in Mexico, the United States, Europe and Latin America.

In addition to the five printed monographs that he has compiled throughout his history, he has presented multiple exhibition and film projects in spaces such as Casa Vecina, Museo Tamayo, Sala de Arte Público Siqueiros, La Tallera, Centro de Artes Visuales in Mérida and the Instituto Cervantes de Nueva York, among others.

His interest in improving artistic education in Mexico led him in 2009 to create an alternative educational platform to offer more than just artistic training: Atelier Romo, whose philosophy rests on the idea that to learn and develop projects it is essential to create a space where Different artistic disciplines coexist to allow experimentation and action.

This educational, comprehensive and multidisciplinary methodology is based on the arts. Currently, the guiding axis is focused on ‘deep education’ understood as all knowledge that accompanies us and improves our daily life.
