Fernanco Sanchez Castillo : mas alla / monuments and other coincidences

Fernando Sánchez Castillo investigates the relationships between history and politics, art and power, public space and collective memory, and their manifestations in the form of monuments. He is among the foremost Spanish contemporary artists and one of the rare ones to attempt to come to terms with Spain’s recent history. On occasion of the two exhibitions “Monuments and Other Coincidences”, celebrated in 2014 at the OK Center for Contemporary Art in Linz (Austria) and “Más allá” (Beyond), held at the CA2M Centro de Arte Dos de Mayo in Móstoles (Spain) in 2015/2016, two different, yet transversal, aspects of this artist’s body of work are highlighted.
