Abstract

Dexter Dalwood, a Bristol-born artist living in Mexico, co-curated a show at the National Gallery featuring the work of Jose Maria Velasco, a Mexican painter. Velasco's paintings capture the industrialization of Mexico City in the 19th century, offering a unique perspective on historical events and ecological themes. Dalwood's interest in history painting and his use of numbers and text in his artwork reflect his exploration of different genres and artistic influences. The exhibition aims to highlight Velasco's significance as an artist and his contribution to art history, challenging traditional narratives and promoting inclusivity in the art world.
