The work of Eduardo Terrazas, spanning five decades from 1968 to 2023, is currently featured in a comprehensive exhibition at The Museum of Contemporary Art of Monterrey (MARCO).
“The Museum of Contemporary Art of Monterrey presents the exhibition Eduardo Terrazas. Multiple balance. Works and projects (1968-2023), a retrospective of more than five decades of the career and legacy of the Mexican architect, designer and artist. The exhibition comes from the Museum of the Palace of Fine Arts and is organized in collaboration with the federal Ministry of Culture and the National Institute of Fine Arts and Literature (INBAL). For its presentation at MARCO, projects developed by Terrazas for Monterrey were added to the exhibition, such as Cintermex, located inside the Fundidora Park.
Curated by Daniel Garza Usabiaga, who points out that Terrazas' projects throughout his career “have stood out for their iconic character; Furthermore, their humanist vocation unites them.” And through multiple disciplines, Terrazas has created stimulating and imaginative works, many of them placing the viewer as an important part of the piece. In the exhibition at MARCO, the public will be able to appreciate not only the pieces of geometric and color composition that distinguish Terrazas, with its wool thread technique applied to the surface with Campeche wax, but will also have the experience of enjoying immersive installations, such as Crecimiento exponential (2014) or the recreation of the Imagen México mural, a logo printed on reflective metallic paper that he created in 1969 for the inauguration of the Metro in Mexico City, which was included in the exhibition Graphics 1: New Dimensions at the Museum of Art New York Modern (MoMA) in 1970.”
