<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Born in 1974 in Guatemala City, Guatemala, where she currently lives and works. Her career as an artist began at the end of the nineties, a few years after the peace treaty was signed in Guatemala. In 2005 she was awarded the Golden Lion in the Young Artist category at the 51st Venice Biennial. Her work has been shown in collective exhibitions at different venues worldwide. Regina also writes poetry and stories, and several of her texts have been published in anthologies and magazines. A volume of her poetry, \u201cPersonal e Intransmisible\u201d, was published in 1999.<\/p>\n
She has taken part in international events such as the Venice Biennial (49th, 51st, 53rd and 54th); the Sharjah Biennial; the Pontevedra Biennial (2010); the 17th Sydney Biennial; the Second Moscow Biennial; the First Triennial of Auckland; Venice-Istanbul; First Canary Islands Art and Architecture Biennial; the Third Albania Biennial; the Second Prague Biennial, and the Third Lima Biennial. Her work is featured in collections such as that of Princeton University (New Jersey, USA); Meiac (Spain) Fondazione Teseco (Pisa, Italy); Fondazione Galleria Civica (Trento, Italy); MMKA, Budapest, Hungary; Consejer\u00eda de Murcia (Spain); Museo de Rivoli (Turin, Italy); Daros Foundation (Switzerland); Blanton Museum (USA); Colecci\u00f3n La Gaia; UBS Art Collection; Miami Art Museum, and Cisneros Fountanal.<\/p>\n
At MDE11 she will be presenting the Punto Ciego (Blind Spot) video, a performance carried out in Guatemala in 2010 which explores the relationship between artwork and the public.<\/strong> Her work is based on research on the behavior of a group of blind individuals on facing a piece of contemporary art and also on a performance: a sculpture, a body they cannot see and cannot understand, so they must perceive it through their other senses. It is an essay on how we perceive reality, \u201cour own reality\u201d, on how we get by blindly in life, avoiding the other, refusing to see.<\/p>\n Regina Jos\u00e9 Galindo is interested in creating experiences, since she believes that is how one can grow and learn the most. That is why she creates experiences that can prompt questions and delve deeper. Similarly, she is interested in creating works in which linear relations between the public and the artwork are modified or displaced. Breaking up patterns is necessary in all processes that convey information, to prevent knowledge from stagnating.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Website Links of interest<\/strong><\/p>\n Regina Jos\u00e9 Galindo.
