About the Item

This large-scale abstract work features organic and undulating shapes. Red and black - modern. Colombian-born, Atlanta-based artist Esteban Patino creates paintings, collages, and sculptures that explore the multitudes of language creation and perception. Over a decade ago, Esteban created a collection of forms which represented a new language, a sort of universal symbology. These forms have evolved into a toolset used to create abstractions, not as a language itself, but a representation of language, exploring how humans create meaning by instinct and repetition. Featured in his upcoming show Riddle is a large-scale painting inspired by the kids joke about newspapers - “What is black and white and red (read) all over?” The painting references what our mind’s eye sees when we hear homophones such as red and read. Also, Riddle includes a selection of collages made during Esteban’s recent residency in Berlin. The collages are portraits that are made from Berlin’s street posters and advertisements that are replaced every week. Esteban’s collages are an archeological mash-up of the vibration and rhythm of the city. “I feel my ‘new language’ pieces directly relate to these collage characters who are made from the language of the streets,” says Esteban. 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.

Eduardo Costa is one of the key figures in global conceptual art. He was born in Buenos Aires in 1940. He graduated in Literature and Art at the University of Buenos Aires in 1965 where he took courses with Jorge Luis Borges in the late fifties. His practice developed into Conceptual POP with the Fashion Fictions Series, 1966-to the present. He is also credited with creating Conceptual Geometry which he showed internationally starting in 1995 at the Elga Wimmer Gallery, NY, and in 2001 at Cecilia de Torres LTD., NY. With Cecilia de Torres he exhibited a fully developed edition of his Volumetric Paintings, which use painting to such a volume that it stands by itself without any cloth or other support.Eduardo Costa lived twenty-five years in New York and over four years in Rio de Janeiro where he met almost daily with Hélio Oiticica, Lygia Pape...
