Booth C6
Victoria Miro is delighted to participate in Frieze Los Angeles (booth C6) with Children’s Crusade, a solo presentation of new works by the acclaimed Brooklyn-based artist María Berrío.
Created especially for this presentation, the works on view mark the beginning of a larger series of paintings which blend the history of the thirteenth-century Children’s Crusade with the current mass migrations of peoples across the Mediterranean and the US border.
Speaking about this new series, the artist says: ‘The main focus and the main characters are children and their perceptions as seen through fantasy and magical realism. As the children embark on this arduous journey, they infuse the ordinary with the mythic, as their innocent and imagined interpretation of the world bumps against stark realities. The darker and more bleak aspects of these travels are depicted through the naivete, humanity, love, and wonder of a child’s eyes.’
