The main focus of this photographic series by Venezuelan artist Luis Molina-Pantin can be surmised from the show’s title alone: “An informal study of the hybrid architecture, vol. 1—The narc-architecture and their contributions to the community (Cali-Bogotá, Colombia).” While human figures never appear, the artist evokes the ghosts that inhabit the edifices seen in his photographs. It is no accident that Molina-Pantin calls his subject hybrid architecture—the description aptly evokes the mysterious and dangerous presences that infuse and merge with the otherwise earthly monuments and buildings.
