The gallery’s first solo exhibition with internationally renowned Chicago-based artist Iñigo Manglano-Ovalle
Manglano-Ovalle is a graduate of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, each with a recent major solo exhibition at MASS MoCA, 2009.
Iñigo Manglano-Ovalle’s work challenges the notions of the political and cultural, often questioning the sustainability of the atmosphere and the fabrication of war. His minimal and often monumental works have taken the form of technologically sophisticated sculptures, architectural interventions and video installations. For his first solo exhibition at moniquemeloche, Manglano-Ovalle calls into question our relationship to the now infamous Drone Aircraft. In his second iteration of Happiness is a state of inertia, Manglano-Ovalle presents a formal, quiet notation- a DIY project of sorts, made in his rural Wisconsin barn, and tackling an issue of global proportions.
