J. Margulis Art

Venezuelan, b. 1970
As most Venezuelan artists from his generation, Margulis came of age with the rise of Geometric abstractionism and Kinetic art, influenced early on by his encounters with the works of Venezuelan kinetic artist Jesús Soto and Naum Gabo, the Russian constructivist sculptor, specifically through his expsoure to Gabo’s Linear Constructions in Space series, which challenge the construction of volume and space, creating figures with fine threads on a structure. For Margulis, abstraction is the language in which he expects magic to happen, an argot that he masters with ease, where space and its possible construction with the minimum use of materials become one of the playful strategies of his artistic expression. His colorfully sculpted elements emerge as models for his photographic creations, and conversely, each medium coexisting individually, yet dialoguing with the other, creating a variety of discourses based on different perceptions, in an infinite loop in which one agent of expression nurtures and enriches the other. Margulis’ effort has evolved to become a combination of sculpture and photography, creating visual compositions within two different languages and discourses that complement one another. He has participated in several exhibitions and relevant International Art fairs and his art belongs in private collections in Costa Rica, Mexico, Venezuela, Peru, Italy, Spain, Australia, China, Dubai and the United States. J. Margulis was born in Caracas, Venezuela. He currently resides and works in Miami, Florida.

Serie of 4 Porthole Fragments (#14, 38, 43, 18)

Serie of 4 Porthole Fragments (#14, 38, 43, 18)

By J. Margulis

Located in New York, NY

This serie of Porthole Fragments (#14, 38, 43, 18) is a high-contrast chromatic composition structured through layered acrylic planes, where saturated colours define a central volumetric form that shifts with light and perspective. The work is studying the Cubist principles while using geometrical forms and vivid colors. In the Surfacing Forms serie, J.Margulis explores the boundaries between two-dimensional surfaces and three dimensional space. Influenced by the Kinetic Art movement of Venezuela, J.Margulis constructs these works using meticulously layered acrylic sheets that act as "light traps." As the viewer moves, the geometric patterns shift, vibrate, and evolve, offering a meditative experience that challenges the stability of perception. Each work serves as a window into a rhythmic world of color and depth, where light itself becomes the final medium that completes the work. Constructed from painted, faceted slats set at precise angles, Margulis’s reliefs contain multiple compositions within a single structure. The works remain static while the image shifts with the viewer, revealing changing arrangements of color and form. Born in Venezuela, Margulis engages the country’s rich history of kinetic and perceptual art, associated with artists such as Carlos Cruz-Diez and Jesús Rafael Soto. Through complex surfaces and an expansive chromatic vocabulary, Surfacing Forms explores perception as fluid, spatial, and dependent on the viewer’s movement.
