Iosu Aramburu is a visual artist who works with painting, sculpture, and installation, exploring the imagina- tion of a multifaceted modernity and its utopian potentials. His research project revisits early and mid-cen- tury modernism in the Andean region, through the creation of an atlas of forgotten images that aims to map the changing sensibilities in the region.
