Unai Reglero is a visual artist, art director, graphic designer, and cultural organizer. His artistic practice has led him to question the role of art in society, always vindicating it as a tool or device capable of impacting its’ social context.

These practices are developed as CaldodeCultivo, a collective he founded in 2006, which creates artistic projects in context, oscillating between aesthetic and political strategies to amplify the struggles, the resistance tactics, and the survival strategies of those who are excluded from “development.”

CaldodeCultivo addresses conflicts of a global nature that manifest in the local realm, using different artistic languages —from public installation to video— to create devices of counter-information, agitation, and provocation that work as mechanisms for altering the quotidian and as catalysts for dissent, as a collective building of shared experiences and temporary communities.

This last decade he has been developing projects in various cities in Europe and The Americas, that have been showed in different venues and events, such as:

 National Museum of Colombia (2019); Palais de Tokyo, Paris (2018); Panoramic, Fàbrica de les Arts. Barcelona (2018); La Tertulia Museum, Cali, Colombia (2018), MAMBO, Museum of Modern Art of Bogota (2018); Espacio Odeón, Bogota (2018); Center for Architecture of New York (2017); IdeasCity New York, New Museum NY (2017); Kosmopolis CCCB, Center of Contemporary Culture of Barcelona (2017); MACBA, Museum of Contemporary of Barcelona (2017); DIA, Detroit Institut of Arts Museum (2017); ARTBO, International Art Fair of Bogota (2017); Łaźnia Center for Contemporary Art of Gdańsk, Poland (2017); IdeasCity Detroit, New Museum NY (2016); MDE15: International Art Encounter of Medellin, Museum of Antioquia (2015); T2 Centre d’Art de Tarragona, Spain (2015); The Museum of Wola City Lab, Warsaw, Poland (2014); ACVic Center for Contemporary Art of Vic, Barcelona (2014); Art Inkubator, Łódz, Poland (2014); Galerie Art & Essai de l’Université Rennes, France (2014); La Otra, Biennal of Contemporary Art of Bogota (2013); ...
