    Esther Kläs

    2017

    Proyecto AMIL is pleased to announce that Esther Kläs will be the 2017 artist-in-residence in Lima.

    Her three month residency will begin at the end of January when she makes an exploratory trip to the Peruvian jungle accompanied by writer, curator and friend, Philip Larratt-Smith. Their experiences together will be the subject of a publication to be released in the second half of the year.

    Kläs has developed a distinct visual language, combining post-war abstraction and minimalism with a physical sense of the body and its subjectivity.
