Sergio Camargo : Mármore

22 May-4 Jul 2015

Lisson Gallery, 27 Bell St
London NW1 5BY

Overview

“Perhaps innate, these structures derive from their own anteriorities or interiorities, however you wish… They are only what they know how to be.” Sergio Camargo Lisson Gallery presents a solo show of Brazilian sculptor Sergio Camargo (1930-90), his first in London for over 30 years. Best known in his own country and internationally for wall-based reliefs, public sculptures and architectural commissions, this exhibition focuses on Camargo’s works in white and black marble (mármore), including small-scale tabletop works and large freestanding pieces. Simultaneously exploring rationality and chaos, his characteristic three-dimensional constructions of geometric shapes are governed by a self-imposed rigour in regards to colour, material and form. Although distinctly minimalist in order and means, these elegant objects – assembled from cylindrical, cuboid and ovoid motifs – are equally generous and expansive in their study of volume, light and space.
