Aníbal Villacis

Art of the Americas: Collection of the Art Museum of the Americas of the Organization of American States notes that Ecuadoran artist Aníbal Villacís is a bridge between two worlds: ancient and modern.

Saw below when I was at the Ackland seeing work by Jack and Frank. Her work reminds me of Charles also.

Cecilia Biagini

has work featured in Vorágine: Yente and Cecilia Biagini. Inspired by traditions of South American abstraction, Cecilia makes paintings, mobiles, photograms and reliefs that flow seamlessly from medium to medium. Utilizing a bold sense of color, line, depth and abstraction, the varied works find commonalities in their composition and playfulness. Evoking ideas of physics, the geometric shapes in her work are arranged in a manner suggesting movement and animation.

The exhibition will present a selection of works by Yente from the 1930s through the 1960s, in which the artist experimented freely with the visual languages of the international avant-gardes by working across mediums, figuration, and abstraction.

Eddie Martinez

Eddie Martinez’s frenetic, bold, kaleidoscopic paintings draw from art historical traditions such as action painting, Neo-Expressionism, and the CoBrA movement. Martinez filters tenets from his aesthetic predecessors through coarse brushwork, a wide variety of media, and abstract forms and rhythms

Papo Colo

An omnipresent figure in New York’s alternative art scene of the 1980s, Colo bridges two worlds, a bifurcated experience reflected in his works: “My paintings are not abstract or figurative,” he says, “they are hybrid, like myself.”Hyperallergic says Papo’s recent at Caldéron was one the shows to see this September in NYC.

Manoela Medeiros

is a recent Fountainhead artist in residence. In her practice, Medeiros articulates an approach to painting that transcends the specificities of the medium, making use of sculpture, performance, and installation work. Pursuing a hybrid framework for the pictorial, Medeiros questions artistic media by going beyond their conventional formats, producing paintings and in situ installations that explore the relationships between space, time, and the corporeality of art and of the viewer.
