ONE MILLION GERMAN PASSPORTS
The Chilean-born and New York-based architect who makes art – as Alfredo Jaar refers to himself – illustrates why he is considered one of the most culturally, politically, and socially charged visual artist of our time. As the late Okwui Enwezor wrote, “Alfredo Jaar’s work represents one of the most developed commitments by a contemporary artist in the blatant embrace of the structural link between ethics and aesthetics, art and politics.” The artist explores complex socio-political issues, bringing to the fore the ethics of representation. Through quiet and meditative works, Jaar confronts issues of great magnitude, bearing witness to humanitarian disasters and attesting to the impact of military conflict, political corruption and economic inequality throughout the world.
