Gabriel Orozco: 'I work internationally while always maintaining ties with my country'
Briefly

Gabriel Orozco's exhibit "Politécnico Nacional" at Museo Jumex presents over 300 of his works, spanning installations, drawings, photographs, and sculptures from the 1990s onward. Curated by Briony Fer, the show is thematically organized, emphasizing his creative evolution in both public and private realms. Notably, it features a new iteration of his participatory artwork, Ping Pond Table. This exhibition follows Orozco's major public project in Chapultepec Park, highlighting his ongoing influence in contemporary art and public spaces. The show runs until August 3.
The exhibition features works you have created since the 1990s, yet it is described as a playground where one can trace lines in your practice.
Briony Fer, who has extensively written about my work and curated past shows, has done an outstanding job curating this exhibition.
It is not exactly a retrospective; it is arranged thematically and follows my practice in public and private spheres.
For Orozco, this exhibition is an ambitious presentation of his collective works, showcasing over three decades of his art.
