Cyclops
IVÁN NAVARRO: CYCLOPS – THE THUNDER, THE LIGHTNING AND THE GLARE
The entire exhibition winks—not only at those beings of Homeric epic and Hesiodic theogony—but at Matta-Clark’s Parisian intervention of 1975. Under the glow of neon lights and infused with Navarro’s persistent political-poetic experimentation, «Conical Intersect» reemerges, half a century after its execution, mirrored in «Cyclops»—both in time (marking its fiftieth anniversary) and in space (as the two works face each other, just meters apart, near the original site).
