Luis Gordillo Exhibition
Marlborough Chelsea
This event has ended.
Born in Seville, Gordillo is one of the most influential figures in Spanish art during the last 40 years. This will be the artist’s first show in Chelsea and his first in New York since his exhibition at Marlborough Gallery in 1992.
The exhibition in centered on three large polyptychs that were created by uniting independently painted panels into a single work: Lee Friedlander in the Sixties, 2008 (acrylic on canvas, 5 panels, 86.6 x 198.4 in., 220 x 504 cm), Garry Winogrand in the Sixties, 2008 (acrylic on canvas, 7 panels, 86.6 x 198.4 in., 220 x 504 cm) and Diane Arbus in the Sixties, 2008 (acrylic on canvas, 4 panels, 86.6 x 198.4 in., 220 x 504 cm). These paintings are riotous, multicolored abstractions, with overlapping geometrical shapes, connected cells and duplications, each segmented into horizontal bands, sequences of painted moments colliding together.
