Rafael LOZANO-HEMMER

Mexican-Canadian artist born in Mexico City in 1967, who currently resides in Montreal and Madrid. After obtaining a bachelor's degree in physical chemistry, he conducted a number of experimental projects that explored the potential of new relationships for human beings in public spaces through electronic technology. His Relational Architecture series begun in the latter half of the '90s is currently being developed worldwide as a site-specific project that incorporates elements such as people, buildings and the history of the site, with a motif of the exchangeability and communicability inherent in urban spaces.
