Sebastián Diaz Morales

Sebastian Diaz Morales’s films and video installations consistently return to an examination of the linguistic and visual possibilities of narration. Influenced by South American avant-garde cinema, documentary approaches, and art films, Diaz Morales taps into the possibilities opened up by digital processing: the original video sequences become raw material for a practice that dissects the image and recomposes it. 

Sebastian Diaz Morales (b.1975, Comodoro Rivadavia) lives and works in Amsterdam. In 2009 he was awarded with a Guggenheim Fellowship. Diaz Morales has exhibited in venues such as STUK Museum, Leuven, Belgium; Museum für Gegenwartskunst Siegen, Siegen; Le Fresnoy, Tourcoing; CAC Vilnius, Vilnius; Tate Modern, London; Centre Pompidou, Paris; Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam; Art in General, New York; Ludwig Museum, Budapest; De Appel, Amsterdam; Bienale São Paulo; Biennale of Sydney; Fundació Joan Miró, Barcelona; MUDAM, Luxembourg; Kadist Art Foundation, Paris; and the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation, Lisbon. He participated in the 57th Venice Biennale curated by Christine Macel. His works are included in the permanent collections of the Centre Pompidou, Paris; Tate Modern, London; Fundación Jumex, Mexico City; Foundazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo, Turin; Sammlung-Goetz, Munich; and the Fundacion de Arte Moderna, Museu Berardo, Lisbon.
