Joaquín BOZ is the first monograph of the Argentine painter’s work to be published. It brings together his prolific production of oils on various supports between 2011 and 2022.
The publication charts the different processes and moments in the artist’s output on a line between figuration and abstraction, as well as the small-scale and super-large formats he has successfully embraced during this period.
This selection of works reveals the artist’s pictorial concerns and vocabulary, the diversity of supports and techniques used in the production processes, and the recent shift in his color palette.

The reproductions of his works are accompanied by three texts: from the curator Sofía Dourron, the author Pablo Katchadjian, and the artist and engineer Adrián Unger.
The publication is accompanied by a specially created and designed 93 x 62.6 cm poster.

Bio
Joaquín Boz (Rojas, Argentina 1987) is primarily an abstract painter. His works flow, are immediate, and arise from a spontaneous process. Since 2012, he has been using his hands as his main tool to spread, stain, smudge, gather, and charge with oils the supports he experiments so precisely with when creating. No matter what their size, his paintings are composed of anti-heroic gestures that celebrate the potential of touch and leave a record of it’s physical presence.

Since 2011, Boz has lived in Buenos Aires, Argentina. He has taken part in numerous solo and group exhibitions and has been shortlisted and awarded prizes in various competitions and salons in Argentina. He works with the galleries Barro (Buenos Aires & New York) and Steve Turner (Los Angeles) and, as of 2023, has been collaborating with the Perrotin (Seoul).
