The Garden of Earthly Delights : Juan Ortiz-ApuyTools Sanader, Daniella. The Garden of Earthly Delights : Juan Ortiz-Apuy. Toronto, Ont.: Gallery 44, 2017.
Abstract (English)"Taking its conceptual starting point from Rem Koolhaas’ Junkspace, which advances the concept of junkfood to our built environment, this exhibition investigates the world of “total design” to reflect on contemporary image practices involving advertising, design and commodity fetishism. Inspired by Early Netherlandish Painting, the large-scale collage works feature fantastical imagery, depicting fragile and elaborate ecosystems where designed objects and furniture appear like animate beings with a will and agency of their own." -- Publisher's website.
