Iván Navarro, educated in Chile and currently living and working in New York, is one of the most interesting Chilean contemporary artists on the international scene. He produces complex light sculptures, developing the concept of energy conversion through objects and specific installations made of objects of daily use, linking them to a precise critique of power (Antonio Arévalo).
