Durban Segnini Gallery: Seven Colombian Artists of Abstraction and Geometry

Friday, April 12th from 7-10pm Durban Segnini Gallery cordially invites you to the opening of the exhibition Seven Colombian Artists of Abstraction and Geometry. Curated by Adriana Herrera Ph.D.

Durban Segnini Gallery continues its commitment to the unique period of Colombian geometric abstraction with a valuable selection of works by seven different artists that have been fundamental in its development: Edgar Negret (1920-2012), Eduardo Ramírez Villamizar (1922-2004), Carlos Rojas (1923) -1997), Omar Rayo (1928-2010), Fanny Sanín (1938), Manolo Vellojín (1942-2013) and Germán Botero (1946).

Throughout the decades, the gallery has contributed to the recognition of the diverse and divergent paths of the abstract geometric art in Colombia, whose representatives maintained a thread of connection with reality. The allusions to the landscape, the referentiality to architectural spaces, and the connection with a sense of the sacred can be seen in an exhibition that includes valuable and unique pieces.
