Look Whos Talking Gabriel Kuri

Gabriel Kuri creates sculptures that embody questions of value through dynamic, hybrid and playful forms. His research gravitates around a set of recurrent themes: flows of information, notions of commercial and cultural value, consumerism, as well as material and its poetic (mis)use.
