Juan Muñoz a Retrospective at Tate Moden


"They form a dense crowd, closel interacting with each other, gathered in pairs or small circles and often apparently deep in conversation. Innumerable dramas seem to be played out among them as they appraise and respond to or sometimes ignore each other. They empty space of the gallery around and between individual figures is charged with the tensions created bu the group...
...the scale of the work and the sheer number of figures means that the outnumbered viewer is more likely to feel his or her own sense of strangeness and isolation among them. 'The spectator becomes very much like the object to be looked at, and perhaps the viewer has become the one who is on the view'."

At the Instituto Cultural Cabañas. Guadalajara, Mexico.

El regreso


Cuando pienso si yo soy yo en el ayer no me reconozco.
El ayer fue mi ayer, pero no lo recuerdo,
La gente de mi
ayer, ya no la conozco,
Y todo sigue ahí en el ayer, y en
el hoy como si fuera el ayer, excepto yo,
como si fuera un fantasma.
