Andrés Montes (Mexico 1970) is a multidisciplinary artist trained in the United States, currently living and working in Madrid. His creative interests explore the poetics of displacement, investigating concepts such as permanence and the mechanisms utilized to create a place to call our own. Through the exploration of diverse materials and techniques, that range from drawing to installation, sculpture or video, he probes into the representation of strategies for the construction of a place and brings to our attention the fragility of our belongings.

Recently we saw his work in the exhibition Ethnoscapes at the Chasama Studies in New York City, the exhibition Fluxos e Nomadismos in Rio Grande, Brazil or as guest artist in the conversations Juego Cruzado (Crossed Games) at Cruce Contemporáneo (Madrid).

He is the director of Fine Art initiatives for Espacio Naranjo.
