Carlos Motta: Pleas of Resistance

What's it about?

Politics of visibility. Pleas of Resistance marks the first major European museum exhibition to comprehensively showcase Motta's artistic development. It brings together more than twenty-five years of artistic practice, combining early photographic self-portraits with more recent video performances and installations across four interwoven chapters. These are dedicated to pre-Hispanic homoeroticism, the politics of care as a space for queer liberation, acts of self-determination beyond the human, and the telling of silenced stories as a practice of sharing, mutual nurturing, and resistance.
