Alexander ApóstolRegime: Dramatis Personae
Sep 20, 2026 – Jan 3, 2027 Downtown
Black-and-white portraits of nameless political types from Apóstol’s 2017 series, photographed in Caracas with LGBTQ+ activists as sitters.
Each portrait is labeled not with a name but with a role in Venezuelan political life: the dictator, the masked police officer, the ideological tourist, the one from Hollywood. Apóstol made the 90-photograph series in Caracas in 2017, during a period of violent government repression, and chooses a selection for each place it is shown.
The Venezuelan artist, born in 1969, lives in Madrid. Organized by senior curator José Luis Blondet.
