Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This artwork features a prominent "CAFE" text at the top, drawn in bold, blocky lettering. Beneath it, a delicate line drawing depicts what appears to be a stylized flower or plant. The overall composition creates a visually striking contrast between the bold, graphic text and the more organic, flowing lines of the floral element. The subject matter suggests a reference to a cafe or similar establishment, though the artist has abstracted and simplified the imagery. The style and technique employ a mix of bold typography and finely detailed line work, lending the piece a sense of graphic modernism. This work was likely created in the early to mid-20th century, reflecting the artistic trends and visual language prevalent during that period. The artist's intention may have been to create a distinctive, memorable logo or branding for a cafe, while also exploring the interplay between typography and organic forms. ...

Artist
Wilson Díaz Polanco
B.1963, Colombian

Wilson Diaz´s work is informed by the complex sociopolitical context of Colombia. His practice includes music, painting, performance, photography, and video. While the range of mediums is broad, Díaz’s oeuvre is unified by his commitment to exploring the tensions inerrant within local imaginaries and specifically by interrogating the representation of violence in the mass media. In capturing intimate moments and tracing complex constellations of human and political influence, his art offers persuasive alternatives to conventional perceptions shaped by ideology and propaganda. Diaz is one of the most relevant artists in Colombia. His work has been a constant influence on local artists and had helped to construct the landscape of contemporary art in the region. His body of work can be read as a non-lineal historical narrative, that exposes the multiple tension, conflicts and beliefs in a region that can only be explained by the mystics and poetics of art. Through this repetition of form and in a self-reflective exercise constantly present in his practice, Díaz recreates the process of recirculation and appropriation of images. ...

Instituto de Visión
Bogotá, New York City

Instituto de Vision is a Bogotá and New York based gallery for conceptual practices. Their mission is to investigate conceptual discourses that have been neglected by the official Latin American art canon. They have recovered important estates from the Latin American art of the mid century and continue to research the most enigmatic oeuvres of the region. Through a parallel program, they represent some of the most relevant contemporary practices from Colombia, Chile, North America, Venezuela, and others. Directed by three women, Instituto de Vision gives special attention to female voices, queer theories, environmental activism, the conflicts of migration, and other critical positions that challenge the established order. Using the international art scene as a platform, they are committed to give visibility and expand the work of artists that reveal critical realities and raise important questions for these contemporary subjects. ...
