30.03.2023 The three bodies of works (Dibujos de San Pablo [The São Paulo Drawings] 1982, four works from the early 90s, and five recent drawings) presented at BARRO New York contemplate the long path of MARCELO POMBO’s aesthetics from his Starting Point until today. The conceptual and the artisanal in the limit of the baroque and the conservatively aberrant, deconstructs the antinomies of the high culture and the popular, fine arts and crafts, the luxurious and the cheap, nature and culture.
