Fernando Ortega in Bloomington, MN

In his multidisciplinary works, Mexican artist Fernando Ortega plays with everyday perception—the negligible sights and sounds around us. In "Piano Recital" (2008), for instance, Ortega asked a motorcycle mechanic to tune a piano, on which pieces by Chopin were then played. Featured here are recent works and essays by curators Jens Hoffmann and Michel Blancsubé.
