K11 Art Foundation

Adrián Villar Rojas’s lifetime single project involves a deconstructive dialogue with the social, cultural, political, economic, institutional, environmental, and geographical singularity of every context where he and his collaborators are invited to develop a sustained residence. His most recent intervention consisted of four exhibitions and a film trilogy under the same umbrella title, The Theater of Disappearance, which were presented at The Geffen Contemporary at MOCA, Los Angeles; Kunsthaus Bregenz; the National Observatory of Athens; and the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York between 2017 and 2018. The film trilogy was screened at the 67^th Berlinale. Villar Rojas’s recent group exhibitions include the 14^th Istanbul Biennial; the 12^th Bienal de La Habana; Sharjah Biennial 12; dOCUMENTA 13; and the Argentine National Pavilion at the 54^th Venice Biennale. He has been awarded with the Sharjah Biennial Prize (2015); the Zurich Art Prize at Museum Haus Konstruktiv, Zurich (2013); and the 9^th Benesse Prize (2011).
