Language and architecture are concepts that have defined, from the very
beginning, Cristina Iglesias' artistic trajectory. This Spanish artist
has shown her work in the most important of European museums and has
worked with prominent architects such as Paul Robbrecht & Hilde Daem and
Ábalos & Herreros. These concepts however are never employed in a direct
and obvious manner but in a veiled way, like the images reflected on the
metal surface of some of her sculptural works and silkscreen prints, or
the texts that are concealed in her lattices, shaping a place yet at the
same time evincing the impossibility of its location and interpretation.
This is the first monograph to be published on her work as a whole, and
includes valuable essays by Richard Etlin, Michael Newman and Michael
Tarantino, together with an extensive interview between Iglesias and
Gloria Moure, revealing a number of the keys to her creative process.
