INFINITE REALITIES OF GRONDONA AND GÓMEZ CANLE ON PINTA'S RADAR
ROSAS Ek Balam gallery, based in Buenos Aires, presents works by Vicente Grondona and Max Gómez Canle in the RADAR section of Pinta Miami. Entitled Épica del paisaje (Epic of Landscape), this exhibition invokes the fragmentation of reality.
In Grondona's works we find forests and moments bathed in indeterminacy. Resources, vegetation and sediments explore their own memory and tend towards abstraction.
For his part, Gómez Canle crosses portals to the archives of the universe, where real, historical and also imagined landscapes reinterpret painting. References to the Italian and Flemish Renaissance provide a reference point that rotates on its axis and distorts temporality.
Épica del paisaje juxtaposes the organic and the geometric with a mostly cool palette that combines the artist's observations with the intentional act of letting be. In this surreal-tinted world there are no measurements or regions. We can only conjecture elusive vanishing points, like "energetic centers that provoke expansive waves around them" [1]. This exhibition creates its own world on the lost traces of the planet we used to inhabit and to which we no longer access.
