EXHIBITION VIDEO ART: LOS HUESOS by Joaquín Cociña and Cristóbal León
10/19/2023 – 12/17/2023 – Nassauischer Kunstverein


This short film conjures up Chile’s past. From the 1970s, the South American country suffered under a bloody military dictatorship. In the film, a little girl brings a doll and two corpses to life, one representing the ever-powerful oligarchy in Chile, and the other a follower of dictator Pinochet. The girl attempts to exorcise their authoritarian and inhumane tendencies through ritual summoning.
