Texas-based artist Dario Robleto is a deep-diving conceptual artist, who craftily fuses and confuses layers of history, culture and the natural order of the cosmos. His solo exhibition Dario Robleto: The Signal, on view at SBMA, highlights the artist’s multiyear exploration of the Golden Record, a gold-plated phonograph recording containing sounds and images selected in the late 1970s by NASA team to represent life on Earth to the extraterrestrials that discovered it.
How in the materialized traces of humanity does one record all the richness of what it means to be in love, to be worried, to be in war, much less the textures of our emotional lives?
