Drawings from the South of America
Exhibition Description
Henrique Faria & Herlitzka & Co are pleased to present Drawings from the South of America on the occasion of Master Drawings week in New York City. The exhibit features an array of Latin American artists, from masters Willys de Castro, Hércules Barsotti Gerd Leufert and Marisol, to conceptual practitioners Horacio Zabala, Osvaldo Romberg, Mirtha Dermisache, Leandro Katz , to contemporary artists Karina Peisajovich, Luis Roldán and Eduardo Santiere. The works selected from these distinguished artists demonstrate the diversity of technique and content applied to the paper medium over the course of the past fifty years and how the notion of ‘drawing’ is being expanded and revitalized.
Drawings from the South of America shows the versatility of such a common medium and the originality of the works thus conceived. With different themes and styles juxtaposed throughout the gallery, the exhibition aims to highlight the transformation, tumult and originality of modern and contemporary Latin America.
