Primordial Marks.eugenio Dittborn’s Recent Airmail Paintings in New York
While the recent works by Chilean artist Eugenio Dittborn retain many of the hallmark features of prior «Airmail Paintings», the ones currently exhibited at Alexander and Bonin in New York are marked by multi-chromaticity and the incorporation of dynamic bars of color, which imbue the work with a strong aesthetic presence. Here we share an essay by Laura Braverman, published by Alexander and Bonin to accompany the exhibition. In it, she delves into the pre-writing strokes («palotes») that are a pervasive pictorial mark in this series, a key feature that also appears to echo many of the conceptual and poetical themes that have become central to Dittborn’s «Airmail Paintings».
Eugenio Dittborn:pinturas Aeropostales Recientes
Si bien los trabajos presentados en Alexander and Bonin conservan muchas de las características distintivas de las anteriores «Pinturas Aeropostales» de Eugenio Dittborn, las más recientes se caracterizan por su multi-cromaticidad y la incorporación de dinámicas barras de color que, según explica el artista a la historiadora de arte Laura Braverman en el ensayo que acompaña la exposición, remiten a los “palotes”.
