julia krause and andres fernandez in the exhibition landsichtssache
The LANDSICHTSSACHE exhibition, shows various artists and projects whose works deal with our view of the world, with the claim to truth of maps and what they are unable to depict even in their greatest accuracy.
They all question how we perceive the world in its form, how we position ourselves in it and how our existence and actions change not only our view of the map, but also the map itself.
Emerging figure of Spanish art brut, Andrés Fernández joined the Madrid workshop Debajo del Sombrero in October 2009. Very shy, he only speaks when negations and acknowledgments are not enough - as a child, he would spend hours in atlases. The list - concise or exhaustive, even entirely inventive - and the plan, filled with directions and indications, are interconnected: together they ensure the symbolic deployment of a deeply intimate everyday life. Fernández participated in the Berlin Biennale between 2019 and 2020, and in the Shanghai Biennale in 2021. He has participated in group exhibitions at the Museum of Contemporary Art of Castilla y León (MUSAC), Museum of Contemporary Art of Barcelona (MACBA), and his work is part of the collections of the Dos de Mayo Art Center (CA2M).
