Aldo Chaparro Winder
(born in 1965 in Lima, Perú; lives and works in Mexico City)

With a sculptural gesture as basic as wrinkling a piece of paper with your hand, Aldo Chaparro, produces pieces in stainless steel with electrostatic paint. 

The immediacy of the action and the use of physical force implied by his body; transform, crush and shape the steel to give it the character of a document, a register of an action performed against the material.

Aldo Chaparro is known for expanding the boundaries that separate art from other disciplines, making of this frontier his central theme. Through different mediums, Chaparro remixes and edits references from the mediatic world pushing aside the notions of past and future to offer a present where simultaneousness co-exists. He is also the publisher of Celeste Magazine and editorial director of Celeste Editorial Group one of the most influential contemporary culture publishers from Latin America.
