BIO - Guido Ignatti
Guido Ignatti was born in 1981 in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
His artistic practice explores restriction and suspension. To reveal what a body can do, he binds it; to showcase the potential of abstract painting, he reduces it to its bare minimum. His work investigates bodies subjected to the working device, queer eroticism, and identity shaped by politicized bodies.
He founded Sauna, an art criticism magazine; Proyecto Bonzo —an exhibition platform set in houses slated for demolition in Buenos Aires—, and Demi-Monde, a roaming nightclub.
His work is part of national and international collections, many of which focus on Latin American abstraction.
He lives and works between Buenos Aires and Madrid.
