Adrián Martínez's exhibition, 'Que la cumbia suene más fuerte que los problemas,' is currently on display at Es Baluard Museum in Palma de Mallorca, Spain, from May 23 to August 31, 2025. Curated by Esmeralda Gómez-Galera, the exhibition explores artistic practice as a space for resistance, critical reflection, and connection with the environment, using humor and irony.
The installation features works made with local and organic materials, including native Mallorcan wool dyed with natural pigments. Martínez integrates drawing, installation, and animation, creating a dialogue with the territory and artisanal tradition. The exhibition transforms the space into a material landscape, reflecting on ecology, artistic production, and the sense of belonging.
Martínez addresses tensions in the art world using these natural materials, employing a critical approach with humor. The exhibition questions artistic conventions and celebrates resilience, highlighting the frustrations and collaborative spirit of the artistic process.
