From the vibrant colors and intricate lines of Madi art to the clean, geometric shapes of Brazilian constructivism: Tsunami brings together these myriad artists and movements, and explosively displays their works along the gallery walls, prompting the question: what phase of the aftermath do we currently find ourselves in?
Leon Tovar Gallery is pleased to announce the opening of Tsunami, a highly anticipated art exhibit showcasing some of the most important Latin American art movements of the 20th century. The exhibit will be held at the gallery's location in the Upper East Side as of Thursday, March 9th, 2023.
Tsunami is a tribute to the wave of modern Latin American art that swept over the world, bringing with it a fresh and unique perspective on abstract expressionism, constructivism, geometric abstraction, and kinetic art. The exhibit will feature both painting and sculpture and will encompass the Argentine Madi Art and Concrete Art movements, Brazilian Constructivism, Geometric Abstraction, Kinetic Art and more organic abstract works that emanated from the region during the mid to second half of the 20th century.
From the vibrant colors and intricate lines of Madi art to the clean, geometric shapes of Brazilian constructivism: Tsunami brings together these myriad artists and movements, and explosively displays their works along the gallery walls, prompting the question: what phase of the aftermath do we currently find ourselves in? The exhibit aims to suggest we are in the reconstruction phase, where space is humbly created for overlooked transformational talents, honoring the artists’ legacies and commitment to preserving space in order to explore and discover new possibilities and potential.
