''Antonio Caro (born 1950, Bogotá, Colombia) is a contemporary artist known for using conceptualizations and iconic visuals that often make political commentary about his home country. Since 1970, Caro has built a career that, according to the categorizations of history and criticism, denotes an authentic example of conceptual art in Colombia. Since then, Caro's work has proposed a critical eye on social and political conditions in his country, as to their academic and popularly understood historical connotations. Caro's work is achieved through the implementation of informal procedures in traditional artistic practice, including photocopying, public installations, lectures, posters, and materials related to indigenous cultural practices, such as salt or achiote. The vast majority of his work makes use of text as a tool to communicate strong messages, but instead acquires the paradoxical nuances of a political nature as a means of production and dissemination. One may classify Caro's art as politically charged pop art. In 1998, Caro received the prestigious Guggenheim Fellowship. Some of his important works include: ''Sal'' (1971), ''Imperialism is a paper tiger'' (1972), ''there is no art here'' (1972), ''There is no case'' (1974), ''Colombia-Marlboro'' (1975), ''Colombia 1977'' (1977), ''Defend your talent'' (1977), ''all very Caro'' (1978), ''Homage to Manuel Quintin Lame'' (1979), ''Project 500'' (1987), ''Annatto'', among others. == Solo Shows == 2012 * "En Montería, todo está muy caro", Museo Zenú de Arte Contemporáneo, Montería, Colombia 2010 * Antes de Cuiabá, Galería Casas Riegner, Bogotá, Colombia 2008 * Antonio Caro, Museo Antropológico y de Arte Contemporáneo (MAAC) Guayaquil, Ecuador 2007 * Encuentro Internacional Medellín, Medellín, Colombia * Workshop in Cali, Universidad Javeriana, Cali Colombia 2006 * Workshop in Manizales, Universidad de Claldas * Workshop Corumbá, Invited by the Festival de América do Sud TODO ESTÁ MUY CARO * Exposición antológica de Antonio Caro, Sala RG, Fundación Celarg, Caracas, Venezuela 2003 * TODO ESTÁ MUY CARO, Retrospective 1970-2002, Museo de La Ciudad, Quito, Ecuador 2002 * TODO ESTÁ MUY CARO, Retrospective 1970-2002, Museo de Arte Moderno La Tertulia, Cali, Colombia * Los Trabajos del Taller, Centro Cultural Comfandi, Cali, Colombia 2001 * Los Trabajos del Taller, Galería Santa Fe, Bogotá, Colombia 2000 * Talleres en México, Centro de Información Cultural de México, Bogotá, Colombia 1998 * Muestra de trabajos, Museo de Arte Moderno, Bogotá, Colombia * Itinerancia del taller, Convenio Andrés Bello, Bogotá, Colombia * TODO ESTÁ MUY CARO, Banco de la República, Medellín, Colombia * Museo de Arte Moderno, Bucaramanga, Colombia 1997 * Installations, Galería Santa Fe, Bogotá, Colombia * TODO ESTÁ MUY CARO, Banco de la República, Pereira, Colombia 1996 * TODO ESTÁ MUY CARO, Banco de la República, Cúcuta, Colombia * Museo Tayrona, Santa Marta, Colombia * Teatro Amira de la Rosa, Barranquilla, Colombia 1994 * Killkawawa, Museo de “La Bagatela”, Cúcuta, Colombia * Biblioteca Luis Ángel Arango, Bogotá, Colombia 1993 * Proyecto Postal, Galería Santa Fe, Bogotá, Colombia 1992 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Antonio Caro」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
