Raúl Cerrillo
Simbiosis Evolutiva (Paper Abstract Contemporary Mexican Biology)

2023

About the Item

Raúl Cerillo’s creations are characterized by the construction of surfaces with multiple layers of paint, acquiring a three-dimensional appearance. Each piece, according to the artist, is traced as a "path or trail" that leads the viewer to come face to face with a portrait of his mind. Each layer of paint, line, and figure hidden or highlighted in his works invites us to reflect on how data, ideas, feelings, and critical positions accumulate in his mind. The artist finds inspiration in his inexhaustible curiosity to understand the world around him. His creative exercise transcends limits and overflows, as does his desire to share his cosmogony with the public, raising awareness and transmitting the knowledge he has acquired. His work reflects the knowledge acquired on mother cultures, ancestral philosophy, and theories on the origin of life and the universe. This knowledge can be controversial or underestimated by Western conservative thought, however, it is there where the artist finds his answers.

  • Larry Zox "Teal Top" Drawing, 1966
    By Larry Zox
    Located in Toronto, Ontario
    Larry Zox (1937-2006) was a central figure in the evolution of 20th century abstraction in America. Raised in Des Moines, Iowa, Zox studied at the University of Oklahoma and went on to work under the tutelage of modernist Georg Grosz at the Des Moines Art Centre. Zox moved to New York City and established his reputation by the mid 1960's. His studio was located on 20th Street and he was surrounded and inspired by a melting pot of jazz artists, bikers, and boxers. Zox was one of the most successful practitioners of hard-edge or geometric abstraction and not surprisingly was championed by Frank Stella, amongst others. By the mid 1960's, Zox arrived at his most recognized style, utilizing hard-edge shapes in bold colors to create geometric patterns, which were often realized on raw canvas. Zox's hard-edge geometric creations from the late 1960's and early 1970's are arguably the most recognizable works from his oeuvre. Fittingly he had a retrospective at the Whitney Museum in 1973, that focused on such work. Today, numerous museums including the Whitney, the MoMA, the Tate and the Metropolitan all have examples of his work from this era in their permanent collections. While Zox is not directly associated with the Op Art movement, many of his works by nature of their patterns and colors create visual illusions in dimensionality. In "Mosaic" the kelly green band that intersect the composition helps give the overall work an appearance of a slanted stair. Frequently the artist seems to be inviting the viewer to find pattern within the work. In "Mosaic" we have both areas of synergy and dissonance. Can you find them? Questions about this piece?
