Berlin, 25 April - 20 June 2009




Iñigo Manglano-Ovalle (born in Madrid in 1961) lives and works in Chicago, where he teaches at the University. In recent years, he has held individual exhibitions at the Art Institute, Museum Haus Lange/Haus Esters, Krefeld, and Vienna's Generali Foundation. His impressive installation at this year's Documenta was considered by the critics as one of the few truly outstanding and universally praised contributions within an overall presentation that was highly criticized.

Manglano-Ovalle is considered a pioneer in a new kind of political art. His work is occupied with the attempt to understand forces and systems that continuously drive forward the transformation of our world: not only social phenomena like migration and increasing urban development, but also phenomena of the natural world.
