With the words “Making as if Wondering: So What Is This?”, Eva Lootz (Vienna, 1940) alludes to a particular way of understanding the activity of art: to let oneself, while making, interrogate the world from scratch. With this as a premise, the exhibition sets forth a non-chronological, but panoramic journey through five decades of Lootz’s art, displaying an ensemble of pieces recently donated by the artist to the Museo Reina Sofía and other works, some of which will be on view for the first time or remade specifically for the occasion: in sum, paintings, sculptures, installations, videos, photographic series and sound pieces, all representative of Lootz’s work. There is a focus on the drawings which, straddling exploration and text, constitute a sort of writing running parallel to the artist's researches and which, at different points, do act as a diary.

The exhibition "If You Still Want to See Something..." dedicated to Eva Lootz at Sala Alcalá 31 is a profound exploration of concepts such as resonance, light, and the limits of our perception. Through her work, Lootz invites visitors to reflect on the interaction between matter and energy. The show features an installation demonstrating how certain minerals and substances resonate with ultraviolet light, as well as a series of nearly 1000 drawings.
