J. Margulis Sculptures
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.to

Miniature Boat at Abstract Sculptural Sea. Mixed Media Wall Sculpture, 2024
By Vera Vizzi
Located in FISTERRA, ES
This evocative wall sculpture by Vera Vizzi, titled VITA, forms part of the artist’s ongoing exploration of maritime themes and human vulnerability. Crafted in mixed media on reclaimed wood, the piece presents a poetic seascape made of three stacked wooden blocks, each painted in shifting shades of deep blue and stormy grey to evoke a layered oceanic horizon. Atop the highest block sits a delicate miniature boat with small figures, amplifying the sense of fragility and scale.
The composition recalls coastal environments and states of emotional suspension—between movement and stillness, presence and absence. The textured surfaces and chromatic modulation suggest tides, foam, and sediment, while the figurative element introduces a narrative of journey, survival, or return. Like much of Vizzi’s work, VITA resonates with themes of resilience, the pull of memory, and our longing for connection with the sea.
This one-of-a-kind sculpture belongs to the artist’s new 2024 collection and is ready to hang. Ideal for collectors interested in contemporary marine art, mixed media assemblage, or metaphorical sculpture.
