El eje del mal

Adriana Lara, Adriana Martínez, Cris Tufiño, Diego Salvador Ríos, Mariana Murcia, Radamés 'Juni' Figueroa, Sangree

“El eje del mal” was the inaugural exhibition of Ruberta, a collaborative exhibition space in Glendale shared by Galería Agustina Ferreyra (Mexico City), Lodos (Mexico City), Proyectos Ultravioleta (Guatemala City), CARNE (Bogotá), and BWSMX (Mexico City).

The exhibition featured works by Radamés “Juni” Figueroa, Adriana Lara, Adriana Martínez, Mariana Murcia, Diego Salvador Ríos, Cristina Tufiño & Sangree.

Each artist navigates the complex terrain of Latin America’s colonial legacy and its more contemporary manifestations within a consumerist society. Their tactics are diverse and often borrowed from other disciplines like archaeology, anthropology, and theater, but are tied together by a shared interest in a pop-cultural vernacular.
