This event has ended.

Solo exhibition featuring new kinetic sculptures is Pedro S De Movellán’s ninth solo show at Maxwell Davidson Gallery.
One of the most prominent kinetic sculptors working today, De Movellan has become a master of fluidity, creating entirely unique kinetic works that move effortlessly and silently. De Movellan’s work has shown constant evolution throughout his 15-year career. At only 43, he is a master and apprentice in his field.
In the past, De Movellan worked largely in wood and dense metals. Recently his focus has shifted to materials that are both durable and ultra-lightweight. This exploration has led him to use stainless steel and aluminum as main supports for carbon fiber laminate elements. Carbon fiber, which is strong, archival, and malleable, has become his signature material. The artist’s choice of materials and precise workmanship come together to create an overall aesthetic that is at once industrial and romantic.
