Tania Bruguera is a political and interdisciplinary artist whose work
focuses on the relationship between art, politics and life. In her work,
art is conceived as an experience and space for utopian projects. Bruguera is particularly interested in the insertíng art into everyday political life.
Since 2002, she has embarked on a series of projects in which she works towards appropriating the structures and resources of power rather than just the language. Bruguera is no longer interested in merely representing political situations but in creating them by putting into motion some of the same strategies used by political powers in her ouvre.
Her work, often of an ephemeral nature because of the use of live actions and/or fragile materials, reflects the similarly ephemeral condition of any political truth.
