| Emerging artist Carlos Estrada-Vega, Mexican painter, (b. 1955) |
||
| Mexican artist, Carlos Estrada-Vega (b. 1955) is becoming widely celebrated for his bright tactical paintings. Estrada-Vega wraps canvas on top of wood cubes, lined with metal inserts. Over these magnetic bases, he layers wax, oleopasta, oil and pure pigment, closely lining up and stacking the textured and radically hued blocks against a metal backing. In his recent solo exhibition at Margaret Thatcher Projects in New York, his playful variations on color grid abstraction were popping with vigor and verve. artnet currently has images of Estrada-Vega on the pages of Australian gallery Conny Dietzschold, California-based Hunsaker/Schlesinger Fine Art and the Margaret Thatcher Projects. | ||
