Description: Latin American Masters is pleased to present Transpositions, recent paintings by Gustavo Acosta. Transpositions features paintings, many of which have a segmented, split-screen structure. Their imagery is the product of a denatured, electronically mediated world. Dystopian critiques aside, these paintings have a formal power that can be traced to their geometric construction. In it’s order and precision, Acosta’s geometry offers a counterpoint to the grim realities of his timeworn urban landscape. The absence of people, and of human scale, underscores the illusory quality of Acosta’s cities. Join Latin American Masters and the artist for the Opening Reception on June 22nd from 4-7pm.
