Fluid Boundaries at BARRO NEW YORK
04.04.2024 Abstract art can manifest in numerous ways, being deductive or expressive, lyrical or rational, geometric or organic, as well as smooth or rich in gestures. In the realm of painting, abstraction acquires a unique expression when it is grounded in a well-defined ontology. Although painting does not speak, it creates speech. Joaquín Boz’s work is an example of how abstraction not only encompasses but also delves into complex concepts such as contingency and sensibility, through its meticulous layers of color.
