ALEJANDRO CESARCO

Lives and works in New York, USA.

Alejandro Cesarco’s work is influenced by literature and literary theory, and by the fragile relationships that exist between imagery, language, and meaning. In addition to his studio practice, the Uruguayan-born artist has curated several exhibitions and runs Art Resources Transfer (A.R.T.), a nonprofit organization founded in 1987. He has exhibited in galleries and museums in the United States, Latin America and Europe, and has represented Uruguay at the Venice Biennale in 2011. He is the winner of the 2011 Baloise Art Prize.
