Asier Mendizabal has been constructing a remarkable body of work over the past ten years, in which he pays most attention to the relations between  form,  discourse  and  ideology.  He  puts  into  perspective  the  complex  articulations  between  the  aesthetic  and  the  political,  and  reconsiders the legacies, the possibilities, but also the failures, of the tradition of sculpture as a monument, certain historical artistic vanguards, political and militant cinema or punk music movements. Being abstract sculpture his most representative register, Mendizabal’s work  unfolds  in  any  number  of  other  mediums,  from  film  to  silkscreen,  from  flags  to  photographic  series  and  collages,  always  with  an  instinctive feel for sculptural and graphic form.

For  his  second  exhibition  at  ProjecteSD,  Mendizabal  presents  a  new  series  of  sculptural  works  that,  attached  and  together  with  a  set  of  silkscreen printed compositions that reproduce photographs of multitudes from illustrated press, problematize the idea and the representation of the notion of collective The artist uses as tool and basis for his research a graphic element inherent to offset printing, the dot screen, to which he refers both in the silkscreened collages and the sculptural modules that he builds.
