Sicardi | Ayers | Bacino is pleased to announce our participation in the Dallas Art Fair at the Fashion Industry Gallery in Dallas, Texas from April 4-7, 2024. In Booth A3, the gallery will present a group exhibition showcasing the range of our program, including artists Gustavo Díaz, Rodrigo Facundo, Eleonore Koch, and Jorinde Voigt.
Gustavo Díaz [b. 1969, Argentina] researches the behavior of complexity and presents his findings through intricate, abstract works on paper and installations that map the conceptual connections between theories such as Chaos Theory, Dissipative Structures, fuzzy logic, and the concept of networks. Although the work is entirely abstract, Díaz relies upon our associations with natural phenomena such as the flight patterns of birds to create intricate non-representational drawings.
Rodrigo Facundo [b. 1958, Colombia] draws upon his diverse training in a variety of mediums including photographic techniques, sculpture, electronics, assembly, metallurgy, weaving, ceramics, metal forging, miniatures, the production and manipulation of felt, and graphic production as he approaches his practice. His most recent body of work features paintings and watercolors that represent his technical mastery of the mediums and his conceptual finesse in creating complex paradisal visions of nature and humanity that artfully weave together conflicting images within the realm of fantastic beauty.
Eleonore Koch [1926, Germany – 2018, Brazil] formally trained under master artists including Alfredo Volpi, from whom she adopted the use of egg tempera as a predominant medium. Unlike many of her mid-century contemporaries, she never embraced complete abstraction, always including the figure in her work, albiet never the human figure. Her work favors a formality of composition and a saturated, vibrant color palette. Whether depicting a garden landscape or interior scene, Koch edits out the extraneous detail and flattens the pictorial plane, pulling focus to the few objects she chooses to carefully arrange.
Jorinde Voigt [b. 1977, Germany] observes and explores the inner processes of perception in relation to various aspects and subjects such as affects and emotions, imagination, memory, sensory experience, natural and cultural phenomena, scientific data, interpersonal actions, and relationships. Often using as her starting point a musical composition or a philosophical text, she creates complex systems of charts, diagrams, and thought models to map the natural rhythms that govern our experience of reality through the media of drawing, painting, collage, and sculpture.
