\This virtual discussion was held by the artist and curator, moderated by the American University Museum's Director, Jack Rasmussen, to highlight the exhibition "Pilar Albarracín:Take a Knife and Open My Heart"
Pilar Albarracín (b. 1968, Sevilla, Spain) is one of the most prominent Spanish artists of her generation. Take a Knife and Open My Heart will be her first exhibition in a public art space in Washington, DC.
Albarracín’s work is a condemnation of inequality, prejudice, and dualism that coexists with humor, color, and beauty - all within a parallel defense of the Spanish culture. Through the power of her videos and images, she aims to move the audience to learn more about Spanish identity and the flamenco universe and its cliches.
The exhibition presents her most emblematic videos and performances together with the fascinating installation Ceiling of Offerings (made with hanging flamenco dresses) and a selection of photos and videos.

This exhibition is supported in part by a grant from Acción Cultural Española (AC/E), a state agency, and by the Cultural Office of the Embassy of Spain in Washington, DC.
