Cristina Ghetti
Argentinian, b. 1969
Cristina Ghetti is an abstract painter whose work mobilizes the visual languages of Op Art, Geometric Abstraction, and Kinetic Art to explore the intersection of perception and reality. Born in Argentina, she lives and works in Valencia, Spain. Ghetti earned her Master of Visual Arts and Multimedia at the Polytechnic University in Valencia, Spain, where she developed a strong interest in working with experts in adjacent fields, such as infomaticians and mathematicians. Her research into the development of new geometries in the visual arts culminated in her doctoral thesis, titled “Post Medial Geometry.” Ghetti has exhibited her work extensively, including recent exhibitions at MACBA (Museo de Arte Contemporáneo, Buenos Aires), the Argentine Embassy, Washington, DC, and Frost Art Museum, Miami, FL, among others. Her work is in the permanent collections of the National Museum of Contemporary Art and Design of San José Costa Rica, the Municipal Museum of Plastic Arts Eduardo Sívori, Buenos Aires, the Provincial Museum of Fine Arts of the Province of Corrientes, the Provincial Museum of Santa Rosa, Province of La Pampa, the Polytechnic University of Valencia, Spain, the Max Aub Foundation, and the Sculpture Park of Rincón de Ademuz, Spain, as well as in numerous private collections. Ghetti is interested in cross-disciplinary methods and tools. She originates her compositions on the computer, utilizing digital tools to develop images that trick the mind into perceiving things like movement and depth on a two-dimensional, static plane. She then translates her compositions into traditional paintings using acrylic paint on canvas. What is most interesting to her about this process is the perceptual and experiential relationships it uncovers. Digital media allows her to immerse herself within a virtual environment, while the work of translating that virtual image into a material image-object using paint and canvas raises questions about where the line can be drawn between reality and perception.
