JORGE AYALA: Shibboleth de Doris Salcedo

09 August, 2008

Shibboleth de Doris Salcedo

Shibboleth de Doris Salcedo (9 de octubre del 2007 al 6 de abril del 2008) fué la primera instalacion realizada a intervenir de manera directa en el Turbine Hall de la Tate Modern. En lugar de llenar este iconico espacio con una escultura o instalacion convencional, Salcedo crea una ruptura a lo largo de el.
Salcedo cambio dramaticamente la percepcion del espacio monumental dandole toda la importancia al suelo y, al quebrarlo, Salcedo trata de exponer la fractura de nuestras sociedades.
