As part of the Barcelona Gallery Weekend programme, ADN Galeria presents Glass ceiling, Regina José Galindo's second solo exhibition at the gallery. The show, which combines performance, video, and photography, denounces the physical wear and tear of work, and does it through a conceptual journey through Galindo's oeuvre. The exhibition will be open to the public from Thursday, September 18, at 12 p.m., and will feature the performance Glass ceiling by the artist at 7:30 p.m. at the galley.
In her work the artist explores the violence exerted by power structures around the world. These relationships are articulated around extraction, whether of natural resources or human labor, thus creating contemporary forms of slavery. To explore this, Galindo uses one of the most common and effective resources in her discourse: the use of her own body as the protagonist of the action. A political and social body that combats classic, stereotypical, deliberately reductive, and conditioning representations of women.
