  • Catalogue Essay

    “The notion of pushing the limits is heard over and over from Ms. Allora,
    who, with Guillermo Calzadilla, her partner in life and work, make up
    Allora & Calzadilla, an artist team in Puerto Rico. The two were frantically
    putting the finishing touches on Gloria, an exhibition that will occupy the
    American pavilion at this summer’s Venice Biennale. The artists, who are
    hardly household names, will represent the United States in a prestigious
    international arena, like Jasper Johns, Robert Rauschenberg and Ed
    Ruscha before them.”
    (C. Vogel, ‘War Machines (with Gymnasts)’, New York Times, 12 May 2011)
