Inside Lee Broom's Latin American Exhibition at Diez Company
"Now, he celebrates his first major presentation in Latin America, in congruence with Mexico City Art Week 2026 and ZSONAMACO, showcasing on an ideal stage inside one of the city's most architecturally layered interiors. Titled The Resident, the site-responsive installation, created during a residency at the Diez Company house, transforms the historic showroom into an immersive tableau where more than 50 works negotiate the boundaries between collectible design, contemporary art, and spatial theater."
"At its heart, a monumental cascade of light suspends itself through the soaring central atrium. The Hail Chandelier descends through the stairwell in a dramatic composition that exploits the full height of the architecture, defining the exhibition's character from the moment of entry. The stairwell becomes both circulation route and stage set as visitors are drawn upward along this luminous axis. It is a characteristically ambitious move from Broom - using a single intervention to recalibrate spatial logic and choreograph the viewer's movement room by room."
The Resident is a site-responsive installation developed during a residency at the Diez Company house in Mexico City. The project stages more than 50 works that negotiate boundaries between collectible design, contemporary art and spatial theater. A monumental vertical gesture anchors the installation: the Hail Chandelier cascades through the central atrium and stairwell, redefining circulation as stage. The stairwell choreographs visitor movement upward along a luminous axis. The Requiem series offers quieter, hand-sculpted draped-plaster pieces and a new wall sconce, presenting ethereal fabric-like forms with internal light and moments of stillness within the larger composition.
