Luis Gordillo. User Handbook

Biography of the constant avant-garde

A fresh, intimate look at the life of Luis Gordillo, approached from the inside as never before, combining archive material collected and provided by the artist himself with close observation of his day-to-day life: in his studio, during exhibition installations, at events and openings (his own and others’), and also in moments of leisure and everyday living. The film is shaped through his own voiceover reflections, which open up multiple lines of meaning—art, painting, family, creative drive, psychoanalysis, the evolution of artistic work, among others—together with testimonies from a wide array of national and international figures from the worlds of art and culture.
