LGDR is pleased to present Lines in Space—opening June 7, 2023, at 19 East 64th Street in New York—the first exhibition of Gego’s work at the gallery’s new flagship location. A leading figure of Venezuelan abstraction in the 1960s and ‘70s, Gego (1912–1994) created multidimensional works that radically engage the properties of line and space. Lines in Space will offer a concentrated survey of the artist’s works across media, including the constellated wire structure Chorro (1979/86), the six-part steel-and-bronze sculpture Cornisa I (1967), the rectilinear Meccano (1985), and a diverse array of luminous watercolors, collages, and drawings. We are delighted to present our exhibition in collaboration with Fundación Gego and to mount our presentation alongside the New York iteration of Gego: Measuring Infinity, a major traveling retrospective of the artist’s work on view at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum (March 31–September 10, 2023).
Gego (1912–1994) was a leading figure of mid-century Venezuelan abstraction, whose work in sculpture and drawing radically engaged the properties of line and space. Her definitive ‘Reticulárea’ series (begun in 1969) brings together the intuition of expressionism and the order of the Constructivist grid in suspended three-dimensional constellations of metal wire. Subtly contoured by light and the shifting environment, the works have the effect of immaterial volumes, constructed by shadow as much as solid form.
