Toni Giró - Solid that melts into air

Solid that melts into air is a project by Toni Giró (Barcelona, 1966) that gathers together a selection of his works from the last thirty years. Rather than presenting them in an anthological way, the works update and contrast the relationships established between them so as to surpass the chronological distance and bring into play a multiplicity of meanings.

Toni Giró’s work is clearly rooted in expanded sculpture and focuses on the image located in the space, activated by the three-dimensional devices he constructs. The artist traces, with a critical perspective on the present and often using irony, the various historical impasses and their interchanges of meaning in order to highlight the limits and possible vanishing points of contemporaneity.
