Summary
Details

Minerva Cueva's aesthetic practice can be situated at the interface between political action and exercises of social self-determination. Among the central themes she has addressed through her work are the commodification of natural resources all over the world, the social causes and consequences of climate change and the neoliberal mechanisms of power that exist in both the private and public realm. Cuevas works across a variety of media, including film, performance, installations and murals, whereby the process of conducting research is a key component of her artistic method. In a clear gesture of non-compliance and resistance, she frequently appropriates the language of the establishment, such as institutional branding and commercial advertising. An associative approach to the oeuvre allows interconnections to come to the fore.

SELLING POINTS: .

Minerva Cuevas is one of the most internationally recognised Mexican conceptual artists. .

This first monograph of the artist brings together a large selection of projects realized since the 1990s, allowing for diverse and flexible interpretations of the artist's work. .

Her prolific international practice is grounded in conceptually and socially engaged actions. She creates political and social interventions and irreverently tampers with corporate and government identities. .

Cuevas' work is held in many permanent collections including: the Tate, Centre Georges Pompidou, Guggenheim, MUAC, UNAM, Mexico City, Museum Ludwig, Cologne and the Van Abbemuseum, Eindhoven.
