Masa Gallery is marking its fifth anniversary with the launch of two solo exhibitions, taking place at the art and design collective’s first permanent space in Mexico City (on view 8 February – 8 April 2023). The vast colonial house, previously owned by art patron Federico Sánchez Fogarty, makes a historic base for Masa to continue to champion motifs of conceptuality in Mexican design, having first launched as a nomadic gallery in 2019.
Artist and designer Brian Thoreen and multidisciplinary conceptual artist Mario García Torres muse on these themes in shows which challenge the traditional functions of materiality. Thoreen nods to his reputation for challenging the status quo in 'Non-Zero-Sum', a collection of ten functional and six non-functional works.
