Subjective Atlas of Colombia
Bringing together paintings, works and prints from 46 artists, which use only the three colours of the Colombian flag, this show gives an alternative view on the country, making critical yet sensitive comments on the social and natural contrasts that exist within the country. Highlighting cultural and social issues, each artist brings their own style and personality to the show, which hopes to represent viewpoints from across the country’s cultural spectrum.
