ESTO NOS SALVARÁ 2023-2024

The garden sculpture "ESTO NOS SALVARÁ" is the first major action of the city of Valencia as European Green Capital 2024 and has been produced entirely in Valencia by Ana Serratosa Gallery, from the letter-shaped pots in corten steel as the design, management and choice of vegetables and cereal. The main objective is to raise awareness to generate a change of mentality about nature. It is then a political action that aims to become a collective exercise, from which to involve citizens in other practices more respectful of the environment. 
In the second space at the Ana Serratosa gallery in Pascual y Genís, 19, the work links with another of Ghada Amer's most famous currents, those linked to a look at women's rights through women's bodies.

This installation is part of Ghada Amer's work that is displayed in three different spaces in the city of Valencia. They can be visited in the Ana Serratosa Gallery (C/ Pascual y Genís, 19, attic) and in the shop window belonging to Domicilio Particular (C/ Cabillers nº 5).

The Artist

Ghada Amer (1963. Cairo, Egypt) is a multidisciplinary artist whose work primarily addresses the ambiguous and transitory nature of the paradox that arises when seeking concrete definitions of East and West, feminine and masculine, art and craft. Through his paintings, sculptures and public garden projects, Amer takes traditional notions of cultural identity, abstraction and religious fundamentalism to invert them and advocate for an ethical positioning in keeping with our times. 

Amer's work can be found in public collections around the world, including the Arab Museum of Modern Art, Doha; the Art Institute of Chicago, Illinois; the Barjeel Art Foundation, Sharjah; the Brooklyn Museum of Art, New York; the Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris; the Chrysler Museum of Art, Norfolk.VA; the Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art, Bentonville, AR; the Guggenheim Museum, Abu Dhabi; the Samsung Museum, Seoul, among others. 

Between invitations to prestigious group exhibitions and biennials, such as the Whitney Biennial in 2000 and the Venice Biennials in 1999 (where he won the UNESCO prize) 2005 and 2007, he was offered a mid-career retrospective at the Brooklyn Museum of Art in New York in 2008. And a larger and more extensive one at three major museums in Marseille (France) in December 2022.  

He lives and works in New York.
