Spain, 1970. Lives and works in Madrid
Enrique Radigales majored in Painting at the Massana School in Barcelona before going on to study Interactive Systems at UPC, Barcelona. He has had residencies at Casa de Velázquez in Madrid, at Museu da Imagem e do Son in Sao Paulo and at Eyebeam, New York.
One of the seminal references in Radigales’ practice is landscape outside of any geographical framework. He leverages new computer technologies to dislocate the observing subject with regards nature, producing as a result a reconnaissance of an uncertain (real or virtual) topography. This new romanticism coexists with a melancholia grounded in the obsolescence of tools and systems of storage that encourages the artist to engage with their material quality and to investigate the archaeology of traditional supports without overlooking the digital tools and language of technological man.
