Description:
'Busy Living' accompanies Spanish artist Coco Capitán's first major museum exhibition in Europe, a comprehensive survey of the artist's last six years of image making, including an essay by curator Simon Baker and texts throughout in English and French. Despite Capitán's young age, 'Busy Living' contains a kaleidoscope of styles, with an open-ness and freedom beyond her years. Ranging from playful setups pushing against the conventions of fashion and commercial photography, through to statuesque studies of Olympic swimmers and personal memoirs told through trips across America and China, 'Busy Living' shows Capitán doing exactly what her title proposes: experiencing, absorbing, and reflecting a fast-paced modern world. Exhibition: Maison Européenne de la Photographie, Paris, France (06.03-25.05.2019)
