Born in New York in 1957, Tony Oursler is one of the most important artists in current video art on a global scale. Above all because of its ability to mutate and reinvent himself. Perpetual Mutation, the artist’s first exhibition in a Spanish institution in sixteen years, aims to get closer to that versatility. To this end, the Casal Solleric shows four sculptural video installations and two recently produced wall works in which he displays his obsessions, where the amorphous helps us think that the space of the aljub is inhabited by ghosts that shine and speak. In Can Balaguer he exhibits the display of an archive: The Influence Machine. A compilation of images and audiovisual documents from a series that structures the last two decades of Oursler’s work, in which the artist intervenes in public gardens around the world (New York, London, Paris...) where he offers us an eco-systemic view that reminds us that there, in the garden, our past is also manifested and our future is projected.
