Life and work of José Luis de la Rosa

La Galería Rebelde

2024

Curated by Josseline Pinto, this solo show at La Rebelde's project room was developed by creating a fake character named José Luis de la Rosa, a rancher and amateur painter from Las Peñas Negras, Oaxaca who becomes obsessed with the idea of aliens abducting his cows. The show consisted in a small retrospective which showed his first works, with a naturalistic aesthetic and the evolution of his paintings as his paranoia and obsessions grew until he vanished.

Computación Cozumel 81

Aparador EDA

2023

An ARG in which broken smartphones were repaired by transforming them into sculptures. This show explores the life hack claim of drying electronic devices in rice as a repair method. By adding polyester resin, handheld devices get trapped inside rice bags. The sculptures are then generated through a social contract, in which a broken device that has lost its value, regains it through alternate gaming.

Nuevas Constelacionees

Jerez 2

2022

Grupo Maxico is a fictional art group. Each member is embodied randomly by different artists for each show. For Nuevas Constelaciones I embodied Lola Revueltas, and artist that's obsessed with her first love. Using GPT-3 I generated a phrase that was shaped in neon and created love letters which were then folded as hearts. Everything was installed inside an old bathtub and people could take the love letters away.

Aparador CDMX

Un Carpintero Suizo (A Swiss Carpenter)

Museo Jumex

2022

A Swiss Carpenter was the first episode of my Simulation series. Using GLIDE Inferencing, GPT-2, and GPT-3 I generated a fictional friend of Urs Fischer that gave a museum visit through an app and an audioguide. People didn't new everything was a fiction until the performance finished after they received a give-away tote bag. Each element hold human and AI work. The silkscreens on the tote bags and -shirts, as well as the printed documents with images and text.

Los objetos están más cerca de lo que parecen

Museo Autoservicio

2020

Museo Autoservicio is an initiative that seeks to offer a new experience to approach and appreciate different manifestations of contemporary art from the health crisis caused by COVID-19, which has caused museums and other spaces to close their doors, as well as to maintain a physical distance between people.

 

Under this scenario, a first temporary exhibition is proposed, set up in a parking lot and that can be visited inside a car: The objects in the mirror are closer than they seem.
