Acompaña una importante exposición de Damián Ortega en el MARCO, el renombrado Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de Monterrey, México. Ofrece a los lectores una exploración exhaustiva de la carrera de Damian Ortega, artista considerado una de las figuras mexicanas mas influyentes en el panorama artistico internacional. Profundiza en mas de tres decadas de su practica artistica, destacando su singular mezcla de filosofia, humor y exploracion espacial. Aporta una fascinante perspectiva a traves de la cual los lectores pueden examinar la interseccion entre arte y cultura y muestra como la obra de Ortega entabla un estrecho dialogo con la construccion de una cultura nacional en Mexico. Inspirada en la mitologia maya y la satira social, ofrece una perspectiva de la experiencia humana que invita a la reflexion. Con Jose Esparza Chong Cuy como comisario, el lector emprende un viaje guiado a traves de la obra del artista, centrandose en dos conceptos que funcionan como metaforas a lo largo del recorrido: El cultivo y la cosecha y los procesos de industrializacion. De forma reflexiva, Ortega contrasta estos conceptos para contar una historia alternativa del mito maya de la creacion - donde el maiz es el origen de la humanidad - para llegar a la era postindustrial globalizada y al caos provocado por el ansiado progreso. Los conceptos articulan las nociones de energia, transformacion, ecosistema y tecnologia, entendida esta ultima como un conjunto de conocimientos, instrumentos y recursos tecnicos que los humanos han implementado para influir en el mundo.
