In the Studio: Lolo y Lauti
Join us live on Instagram from your cell phone, or watch here and on YouTube after, for a series of remote visits to artists' studios to bring Americas Society's Visual Arts public programs to your home. Every Wednesday and Friday this month, contemporary artists will dialogue with Director and Chief Curator of Visual Arts Aimé Iglesias Lukin about their work and practice.
About the artist:
Lolo y Lauti (b. Buenos Aires, 1980 and 1986) are an artist duo working together since 2011. They make performance and video work exploring the performativity of appropriation. Recent work includes the staging of Robert Ashley’s Perfect Lives (Teatro Colón, Buenos Aires, 2016), their video Carmen (MAC, Panama, MALBA, Buenos Aires, 2018) and the performance Me Huevo Loca (ArteBA, Buenos Aires, 2019). They also curate Perfuch, Argentina’s biggest performance art festival. They live in Buenos Aires.
