The State Of Our Employability

The State Of Our Employability: Marcela Borquez, Raul Aguilar

TAP is thrilled to inaugurate its program with a two-person exhibition by Marcela Borquez and Raul Aguilar.
Informed by Neo-Marxist theories, this exhibition analyzes in a personal rather than cumulative manner the drastic changes in the concept of work observed in the past decade. Through a series of paintings based on the aesthetics of different massive communication systems and schematic representations of information, the artists scrutinize the effects on the creative work, knowledge-based economy, and the constantly increasing gig economy.
Even though the considerations proposed in this show are the intimate type, the pillow-talk kind of analysis, the same scrutiny could be extrapolated to a wider and more general statement.
