Casa de Arte Limantour
Casa de Arte Limantour and Saenger Galería present the group exhibition Ebriedad Geométrica.
In the words of the exhibition’s curator, geometric inebriation evokes the emotion sparked by the contemplation of forms. According to Vincent Fleury, it has Platonic origins. Iraqi poet Abdul Kader El Janabi considers it the prerogative of sorcerers. For a long time, Latin American art has been said to be divided between conceptual practices and geometric abstraction.
Perhaps, in these times of widespread confusion, what we need is more intoxication. That it be geometric may appeal to devotees of mathematics—a form of poetry—since both, each in their own way, manage to distract us from the inevitable.
— Michel Blancsubé
