Pablo Siquier

OPENING RECEPTION WITH THE ARTIST | Thursday, May 30, 6 to 8 pm

Sicardi Gallery is pleased to present Pablo Siquier: Structure. In his most recent work, Siquier creates black and white images that evoke expansive labyrinths, city landscapes, or intricate explorations of urban rhythms. This exhibition will include the sculpture 1308, along with recent drawings and a wall installation. The artist will be present at an opening reception on Thursday, May 30 from 6 to 8 pm.

In Siquier’s earliest paintings, he used vibrant colors to construct relationships between a dominant form in the foreground and the horizon lines or background planes of his compositions. In the early 1990s, he restricted his palette—finally abandoning color completely—and began making black and white paintings and drawings inspired by architectural motifs. Built especially for this exhibition, the carbon steel structure 1308 connects the stylistic trajectory of Siquier's paintings and drawings with three-dimensional form; it offers a large-scale structural approach to the practice of abstraction.
