Why do you persist, incessant mirror?
Why do you duplicate, mysterious brother, the movement of my hand?
Why in the shadow the sudden reflection?

J.L. Borges, Al espejo
Reflejo | Reflexión presents works by Olafur Eliasson, Anish Kapoor, Juan Muñoz and Michelangelo Pistoletto. These four artists approach the idea of the viewer’s reflection in front of a mirror through different artistic perspectives. These perspectives embrace formal and functional, philosophical, and psychological levels showing a way of thinking about otherness. The mirror extends the space, and it is multiplied mimesis of the Universe. In the reflection, the artist observes himself and projects his own gaze and his place in space. The works presented in this exhibition raise questions about self-image.
