| The Azorro Group was created in the rather hot
summer of 2001. The group consists of four artists working with
different media, such as painting,
photography, video, new media, and performance.
This wide field of artistic experience allows the group to move
rather freely and consciously in the world of contemporary art,
a world about which one may say many things, but which is surely
not a perfect world. The Azorro Group’s main field of work
is the production of movies, which in a cunning and humorous way
lay bare the stereotypes of “post-modernity.” Their
movies often explore the idea of art as an institutionalized system,
but they also touch on such subjects as the value of art or the
status of the contemporary artist.
The ventures of Azorro Group are full of humor, which cannot be
overestimated.
