Juan Carlos Stekelman : New York | London
11 Oct-15 Nov 2013
Austin / Desmond Fine Art
London WC1B 3BN
Overview
An exhibition of works from the 1960s and 70s by Argentinian artist Juan Carlos Stekelman. Stekelman has been painting for over fifty years, working always on paper in gouache and acrylic and, from around 1955 onwards, making small edition linocuts. Throughout his career, the artist has remained consistently faithful to the figurative in his oeuvre. His drawings, paintings and prints obsessively re-work the forms and expressions of both people and animals. These mysterious figures are created from dreams rather than recognizable models, embodying a psychological escape into another world of the imagination and often evoking both humour and horror in the same instant.
