Through a combination of pictorial and ceramic techniques, while reframing the use of utilitarian objects, the artist seeks to evoke in the viewer experiences and memories tied to a certain material nostalgia.” Continue reading in Orbita Art Magazine.
“Truth be told, the name came about in early 2001, in New York, for practical reasons. I needed a way to filter out the excess paper in my mailbox. I came up with a company called RedSkyFalls. Anything that arrived from that sender went straight into the unopened trash” says Alexandre Estrela to Matteo Bergamini on the reason why he titled the project he will be presenting at the Venice Biennale.

“At Ikon Gallery, Birmingham, the artist’s career-spanning works behave like a dancer – precise, often painful and profoundly beautiful, even in moments of collapse.

“Crumpled and crumbling, Ángela de la Cruz’s artworks are all on the verge of collapse. Her canvases are broken and folded in on themselves, her sculptures are barely assembled junk, and look as if they might turn right back into rubbish if there’s a strong breeze.” Keep reading at The Guardian.

We are thrilled to welcome Ángela de la Cruz to Travesía Cuatro. From the beginning of her career, De la Cruz has been deeply engaged in exploring the nature of painting. What defines painting? What are its material limits? And, crucially, when does it cease to be painting and become something else?
Travesía Cuatro is pleased to announce the representation of Virginia Chihota (1983, Chitungwiza, Zimbabwe), in collaboration with Tiwani Contemporary. Her practice reflects on intimacy, faith, and the human figure, addressing themes such as pregnancy, parenting, kinship, marriage, grief, and spiritual questioning.
