A butterfly Garden in the (Urban) Jungle.Artist: Christian Bendayán, Otto Michael (1859 – 1934), Manuel Rodríguez Lira (1874 – 1933), Segundo Candiño Rodríguez, Anonymous popular artificer. Curator: Armando Andrade de Lucio. Commissioner: Gustavo Buntinx. Seat: Arsenale Press Release Peru Pavilion of 58th Venice Biennale of ArtFor the 58th edition of the Venice Biennale, Christian Bendayán presents an exhibition focused on the fragility of the Amazonian forest ecosystem; an enormous ecological environment and subjected to enormous changes made in the name of progress but almost always aimed at a mere economic profit.The result has been in recent decades a great deforestation that has left real social scars in some places. The works of Bendayán arise from a reflection on these changes in the Amazonian environment that counts in Peru for more than half of the national territory. The artist also dialogues with the country's past drawing inspiration from some representations made by the German entomologist Otto Michael arrived in Peru in the late nineteenth century for a study on butterflies; but the scholar did not limit himself to insects by providing - in his three Amazonian expeditions - also a portrait of climate change already underway at that time. The result is a vision of that paradise that represents Peruvian culture from its origins and how it has evolved over time from the point of view not only visual but also historical. The artist proposes a conceptual and a little retro development in his works that represent sensuality as well as sensorial aspects linked to the territory, including all the tangible aspects of today. The artist presents a built Amazon, but not only from an architectural or landscape point of view, but where the people who live there and who currently live in Peru are represented in his works as a living part of the reality and current affairs of the country, a built and populated Amazon. Antique ceramics and photo cards of the Spanish Manuel Rodríguez Lira (1874 - 1933) will be exhibited alongside the works of Bendayán, both immersed in an environment where the music of FIL Uno, a globally known Peruvian musician, will play. Hours: Gardens from 10.00 to 18.00. Arsenale from 10.00 to 18.00 (from 10.00 to 20.00 on Friday and Saturday until September 30th). Closed on Mondays (except May 13, September 2, November 18).
