Antonio Ballester Moreno
Biography

1977 Born in Madrid, Spain

Lives and works in Madrid, Spain

 

Antonio Ballester Moreno is a creator with a recognisable personality in the current artistic context, both in this country and abroad. His work process investigates the ability of art to transcend limits, both those of the artistic environment itself and those of the educational environment, in the direction of what he has described as a practice of ‘lowercase art’, in which all of the strata can be received and understood as a common ground. Drawing as it does on popular wisdom, experiential learning and non-regulated educational processes with very different levels of intensity, the work of Antonio Ballester Moreno has put down roots in different fields and directions – from landscapes on canvas to play areas in museums – in pursuit of a permanent questioning of the role of the cultural institution in our society, which it conceives above all as a place of encounter.
