21 Sep 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.
