Mario Garcia Torres (Monclova, Messico, 1975) is a conceptual artist using various media, including film, sound, performance, ‘museographic installations’ and video. Garcia Torres refers to untold or ‘minor’ histories (the stories told live and that do not enter the official news) as departing points for his work, while questioning universal ideas about truth, certainty and time. He has re-created historical exhibitions and even ‘completed’ unfinished artworks, blurring original and reenactment, past and present. In the early 2000s, García Torres stopped dating his works as a way of undermining the narrative that a career, and the works produced within it, is the result of a progressive evolution over time.
