Esteban Patino
'Heaps of Language II' - small sculpture, puzzle sculpture, abstract

2023

About the Item

This small sculpture is made of 6 individual pieces that stack together to create a standing sculpture. Each piece is made of cut and buffed plexiglass. Colombian-born, Atlanta-based artist Esteban Patino creates paintings, collage and sculptural works that explore the multitudes of language creation and perception. Superfluous Beings is a body of work that explores the universal subconscious - imagery and representations of language that have existed in the human psyche for millenia. His collage works are composed of imaginary beings: monsters built from collage elements gathered from his environment, street signage, advertisements and art magazines. These works represent parts of Esteban’s subconscious; invented personas that transform into collective archetypes. The paintings explore rites, rituals and desires, and include imagery of plants, animals, fire, blood, pattern repetitions - symbols that we find timeless and natural. “These works are automatic - layer upon layer upon layer, bringing universal energy that aims to be timeless,” says Esteban. “Like us, these works were born without asking to be born, as if in a cave of shadows.” Esteban studied at the Instituto de Bellas Artes and Universidad Nacional in Medellín, Colombia. His work is in the collections of the High Museum of Art, Fulton County Arts and Culture Center, Microsoft Corporate Collection, among others.

  • U.S.A., Neon Light Box Sculpture by Chryssa, 1962
    By Chryssa Vardea-Mavromichali
    Located in Long Island City, NY
    This is a unique neon sculpture in plexi-box with stand. It is the very first completed Neon Sculpture by the famed sculptor and referenced in the monograph "Chryssa" by Pierre Restany. Chryssa, a Greek-born American sculptor who in the 1960s was one of the first people to transform neon lighting from an advertising vehicle into a fine art medium. A builder of large-scale assemblages in a wide range of materials — bronze, aluminum, plaster, wood, canvas, paint, found objects and, in the case of neon, light itself — Chryssa, whose work prefigured Minimalism and Pop Art, was considered a significant presence on the American art scene in the ’60s and ’70s. Exhibited widely in the United States in those years, her art is in the collections of major museums, including the Museum of Modern Art, the Guggenheim Museum and the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York, and the Corcoran Gallery of Art in Washington. Artist: Chryssa, Greek (1933 - 2013) Title: USA, First Preparartory Work For a Neon Box...
