Claudio Correa

Claudio Correa is a Chilean visual artist based in Madrid, working across multiple media including installation, collage, photography, sculpture, and video. Throughout his career, he has received several major awards and grants, including the National Fund for Cultural Development and the Arts (Chile), the Pollock-Krasner Foundation Grant (New York, 2015 and 2023), and the Fundación Actual MAVI UC Grant (Chile, 2022). He was also awarded Third Prize at the Bienal de las Fronteras (Mexico, 2015), among other recognitions.

His work is constructed through the use of obsolete or out-of-circulation objects linked to historiographic records. Through extensive archival research and oral sources, Correa reactivates these materials, reconfiguring their meaning while critically engaging with the geopolitical and visual history of Latin America within the framework of Western modernity, with a particular interest in exposing its inherent contradictions and paradoxes.

Claudio Correa holds a Bachelor’s and a Master’s degree in Visual Arts from the University of Chile. He is currently pursuing a PhD at the Complutense University of Madrid, Spain.
