Frieda Toranzo Jaeger

No New Museum, encontrei TO IMAGINE IS TO ABSENT ONESELF(2025), de FRIEDA TORANZO JAEGER — quase um objeto ritual. A artista usa o formato de tríptico, inspirado nos altares católicos, mas no lugar de santos aparecem ferramentas — pintadas, bordadas e com brilho — organizadas como ícones que aproximam trabalho, corpo e desejo. A obra vai além da pintura: com telas articuladas, dobradiças e materiais decorativos, se aproxima da escultura. Misturando referências diversas, ela propõe um “vandalismo semiótico”, tensionando códigos já conhecidos — inclusive o carro, símbolo de poder masculino, aqui atravessado por elementos delicados. Aqui, vale uma observação: muitas dessas obras funcionam como “caixas de ferramentas” que se abrem e fecham — como se o futuro pudesse ser montado. ___________ @newmuseum @priupit @jemima.awad #FlaviaTronca #FriedaToranzoJaeger #NewMuseum #ArteContemporânea #ArteLatinoAmericana

𝙐𝙉𝙄𝙏𝙔 𝙄𝙎 𝙈𝙊𝙑𝙀𝙈𝙀𝙉𝙏 Currently on view at Longtermhandstand. Curated by Peter Bencze Ultramarine once carried the weight of both wealth and devotion. In altarpieces, it marked not just color, but belief. These works remained closed in everyday time and opened only on special occasions, transforming attention into ritual. Today, exhibitions echo this gesture. Galleries become spaces where artworks gather meaning, invite projection, and create temporary systems of belief. Not salvation, but connection. Not certainty, but movement. UNITY IS MOVEMENT brings together János Brückner, Mamali Shafahi and Domenico Gutknecht, Frieda Toranzo Jaeger, Áron Lőrincz, Tincuta Marin, and Kata Tranker around the form of the winged altarpiece, reimagined through contemporary practices. Across painting, sculpture, and mosaic, the works unfold as structures that both conceal and reveal. Personal mythologies, speculative beliefs, and shared attention emerge through the act of opening. In uncertain times, unity is not fixed. It is something we produce together through looking and being present.

Just hoping we can free the world from American imperialism and Israeli Zionism the world is on fire, and I hope and fight and art feels like it will never rise to the urgencies of the present. And here a post I wanted to make about this book that I am in because it takes more and more to create, in a world that is consumed by billionaires thirst for annihilation.

Surrender to the Machine Abstraction a Form of Liberation (2025) by Frieda Toranzo Jaeger has been acquired by the San Antonio Museum of Art.  The artist is known for dissolving the boundaries between painting and sculpture, creating massive polyptychs that fuse Indigenous embroidery, Mexican muralism, and the religious architecture of Northern Renaissance altars. Her third-largest work to date, Surrender to the Machine Abstraction a Form of Liberation, turns this hybrid lens toward the machinery of modern efficiency and profit:  “The intersections of systems of production, political ideologies, and social values become manifest in this painting as a monumental crimson heart constructed of a network that evokes cogs and wires, rather than veins and arteries. The heart—which can connote love, passion, desire, and life itself—is pierced by a column in the gallery and appears to buckle under its own weight.”  Surrender to the Machine Abstraction a Form of Liberation will go on view in the museum this May.  #FriedaToranzoJaeger #SanAntonioMuseumofArt Pictured: Frieda Toranzo Jaeger, Surrender to the Machine Abstraction a Form of Liberation, 2025, Oil on canvas, hand embroidery, and metal, 167 × 139 in.

It was a great pleasure to talk with and visit the studio of Mexican artist Frieda Toranzo Jaeger [ @priupit ]. She reminds us that everything we do is political. A reflection on denialism, grief over loss, and the importance of the unifying forces of today’s society. / Fue un enorme placer platicar y conocer el estudio de la artista mexicana Frieda Toranzo Jaeger. Ella nos recuerda que todo lo que hacemos es político. Una reflexión acerca del negacionismo, el duelo por la pérdida y la importancia actual de las fuerzas unificadoras.
