More information
In this work the artist gathers a set of objects, documents and audiovisual materials related to the “Pura Sangre Español”, an equine breed created by demand of Felipe II, whose semen is currently marketed by the Spanish Ministry of Defense in order to promote its reproduction and prevent the extinction of what is considered a "breed pattern of national origin." Güell subtly reveals an intricate imagery in which the animal appears related to the armed forces and to the notions of purity, race and national identity.

En esta obra la artista reúne un conjunto de objetos, documentos y materiales audiovisuales relacionados con el "Pura Sangre Español", una raza equina creada por demanda de Felipe II, cuyo semen actualmente es comercializado por el Ministerio de Defensa español con el fin de promover su reproducción y prevenir la extinción de lo que se considera un "patrón de raza de origen nacional". Güell revela sutilmente un intrincado imaginario en el que el animal aparece relacionado con las fuerzas armadas y con las nociones de pureza, raza e identidad nacional.
