Central America comes to Asia

Taipei Fine Arts Museum is currently offering a rare opportunity to see the work of Central American artists outside their native countries

By Vico Lee  /  STAFF REPORTER

Works like Regina Aguilar's El Super Macho Latino, an installation showing how the artist perceives men, Luis Paredes' photo collage Enfragmento IX, Yasser Musa's The Banana Boy Project, an installation showing the same toy against various backgrounds and Diana de Solares' Hector y Lyuba, an autobiographical video installation, are hardly innovative in their use of medium or approach to the subject matter. However, the often bold expression and the obvious influence of Aboriginal artistic traditions make the exhibition worthwhile for those interested in Central American culture.

What: Exhibit of Contemporary Art from Central America
