CANÓNICO Y CONTEMPORÁNEO

Espacio Mercantil
Caracas
2011
Curated by Tahía Rivero and Emilio J. Narciso

Following an invitation by curator Tahía Rivero, Gili designed a mural to take over the space at Espacio Mercantil, upon which paintings by old colonial and pre-modern Venezuelan masters were to be hung. The mural needed to give a new subtext to the works which were selected from the Banco Mercantil collection; to this end, Gili took colour samples from the paintings, using them in the minimalistic, all-encompassing mural.
