About the Artist
Dawson, Carrie. "The Refugee's Body of Knowledge: Storytelling and Silence in the Work of Francisco-Fernando Granados." Topia no. 29 (Spring, 2013): 55.-75
The article draws on the "scholarship and artistic practice" of Granados to examine the importance of storytelling by refugees especially in context of Canada's refugee certification process.
Granados, Franciso-Fernando. CO-RESPOND-DANCE-VERSION II.
"In response to the security measures imposed by COVID-19, Granados’s initial plan for an installation project has shifted to become mobile and accessible; it is now comprised of an artist book (distributed through the gallery and by mail), and poetic and movement-based performances by guest collaborators k.g. Guttman and Kama La Mackerel. The book will include compositions from the ‘letters’ series. Oscillating between the alphabetic and the epistolary, each ‘letter’ is part of an ongoing body of work currently consisting of more than 300 drawings that aim to synthesize a broad range of abstract compositional strategies." -- Francisco-Fernando Granados
