Guillermo Kuitca began his career in Buenos Aires at a very young age, at the end of the 1970s, and immediately showed an interest in the dramatic as expressed in spatial and theatrical situations, both classical and of his own invention.
Family sadism, tragedy, madness, the traces of great wars, and private battles were the themes that fed his first paintings and plays.
From then until the present day, his work has undergone successive twists and turns, organizing itself into series defined on the basis of clear conditioning factors. From the eighties on, the most outstanding of these series were theatrical scenes, maps, architectural plans, and, more recently, groups of works that the artist conceived from the appropriation of a highly codified language—such as technical drawing, for example—which he deploys and expands in infinite variations.
