Members of The Chamber of Mines of Peru attended the exhibition at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Lima.
The Dutch artist, Gam Klutier, launched his exhibition titled “Reflejos del camino” (Reflections of the path) at Espacio 3 (Exhibition Room 3) of the Museum of Contemporary Art in Lima (MAC) located in Barranco.
Dr. Carlos Castagnola, the Secretary General of the Advisory Council from The Chamber of Mines of Peru and Advisor to the Committee on Culture and Cultural Heritage of the Congress of the Republic, attended the artist’s exhibition.
Gam Klutier is a versatile artist. He moved across painting, drawing, collage, photography, and sculpture, both in monumental and medium to small scale. His artworks are compositions of different figures or beings representing coexistence and the never-ending and simple essence of the world: life.
In “Reflejos del camino” (Reflections of the path), the artist presents different media that put the attendees in a counterpoint situation. The artwork displays the dialectical sense in which human spirit is locked. In other words, the battle between the cleanliness of mind, that could be the museum space itself, and the artwork itself displaying his baroque visual and spiritual universe in monumental and medium-size images.
Additionally, his artworks display people, animals, insects, and plants under a nature-centered visual theme which captures the confusion, disorder and chaos of ordinary world.
Klutier was born in Delft in 1946, and studied sculpture at the School of Fine Arts in Breda. His works were displayed in more than 50 exhibitions, either individually or collectively, in Peru, Chile, France, The United States, Spain, and The Netherlands. The Dutch artist lives and works in Lima for over 30 years.
