Oscar Cueto
born in Mexico City, lives and works in Vienna

His work elaborates exercises of writing narratives and reflects on the mechanisms that construct the notion of historicity, knowledge, memory and subject as identity. Such themes are often developed as fictions or in recent work as installations in which the public can interact. His work is part of important collections such as Jumex in Mexico City and MOLAA in Los Angeles.

His recent solo shows include: Service/Aufschlag (2018) public installation on Oskar Kokoschka Platz, Vienna; Banana Republic (2017) Public Installation, Skulpturgarten Margarethen, Vienna; MUME (2017) Public Installation, Art Symposium Ortung Stuhlfelden, Austria; Retorno a la hoja en blanco (2016) CCA, Ags. Calientes, Mexico.
