Alejandro Vidal

Galeria Joan Prats, Barcelona

One second burns for a billion years. His work is concerned with issues that address social conflict, activism, self-defence, and violence. His practice involves several mediums such as video, photography, drawing, and installation. Vidal sees his work as a wicked exercise that examines today's society's state of mind. In the last years he has been investigating aesthetic positions prior to the act of violence. From video-manuals of self-defence to 80's punk, early rave techno or 90's cult movies. He brings all these influences and concepts together to organize them as an attempt of understanding an historical moment and its implications.
