Sebastian Diaz Morales

Sebastian Diaz Morales (b. 1975) is an Argentinean visual artist.

Sebastian Diaz Morales experiments with various cinematographic genres, modes of expression and stylistic means; taking social constellations, literary models, culturally coded images as well as travel impressions and memory fragments as the hook and starting point for an intricately woven, wide-ranging series of images, which are often extremely complex in narrative terms. This he does in an extreme observation of the difficulties inherent in human action setting out to concentrate on a socio-political idea through metaphor and often blurring the boundaries of language. His oeuvre resists attempts to be fixed by categorising definitions; it is not merely film, not solely art, documentary on occasion but never simply illustrative.
A selection of his shows includes Tate modern, Londres / Tate Liverpool, Liverpool / Stedelijk Museum Bureau, Amsterdam / Galeria carlier gebauer, Berlin / Kunst Werke, Berlin / Yvon Lambert Gallery, Paris / MK2, Paris / Le Plateau, Paris / Art in General, New York / Ludwin Museum Budapest / Miro Fundation, Barcelona / Bienale Berlin / Bienale Sao Pablo / Biennale Shanghai / Trienale Torino / Biennale Sydney.
