Three personal stories, three social contexts and three different artistic languages are the starting point for this exhibition, which brings together - for the first time - the work of three leading international artists on the occasion of the 55th Venice Biennial: Roberto Sebastian Matta, the father, and Pablo Echaurren and Gordon Matta-Clark, the sons. The common thread between them is found less in their references than in the visionariness of their creative gestures and the social dimension of their narratives. The exhibition reveals a thin red line between Roberto Sebastian's surrealist dream, Pablo Echaurren's irreverent graphics and Gordon Matta-Clark's corrosions of mental architecture, allowing us to discover the scent of a shared feeling, the sound of the same mental battle and the dream of a single utopic glow.
