In “Narrativas Circulares”, Galerie Thomas Schulte presents an installation of recent works by José Montealegre in the Corner Space and adjacent window front. The artist’s first exhibition with the gallery, “Narrativas Circulares” features sculptures and new wall works that refer to one another: effectively ending where they began and beginning anew, undergoing transformations along the way. Through varying degrees of manipulation in processes of facsimile and translation, Montealegre’s works resist face-value acceptance and a passive reading. In his worldbuilding, multiple pasts collide, shift and endure: a blend of reality and fiction that heightens the entanglements at work in transfers of knowledge and the role of interpretation in its retelling.
