For Juan Pablo Langlois, the continuity of his work does not lie precisely in the themes of his artworks, but in a persistent interest in provoking the perturbation or dislocation of the gaze. This is clearly perceived in Segundo Viaje Sentimental («Second Sentimental Journey»), an exhibition that traces the artist’s itinerary through such unpredictable works as “Colchón Amatorio” (1981), “Miss Corazones Pescados” (1996) and “Papeles Ordinarios” (2005). More than anything else, the pieces exhibited here are cut-outs of everyday materials that alter our ways of seeing the human body (another object of permanent interest in Langlois’ work). As the artist points out, if there is something in common between the works exhibited in the «Miss» exhibition and the sculptures from «Ordinary Papers», that is precisely their ability to question certain idea of the ideal body that «ends up globalizing and imposing itself» at the expense of our own cultural identity.

The ruins with which we coexist are not only the debris and material remnants of the past; they are, above all, the testimony of the losses associated with that disappearance. They also force us to deal with a series of conflicting stubble, the immaterial rust of decaying political institutions, expired ideological structures and archaic biases […]

«In my work there is a continuity. I could also call it a set of variations on the same theme. Small chapters that always point to the same thing. They are closed, marginal spaces, spaces of minorities. One learns to travel through worlds that are closer than we think. It is as if one had […]
