Artist: Beto De Volder

Hutchinson Modern & Contemporary presents De Volder: Cadence, the second solo exhibition of De Volder at the gallery. The exhibition features recent paintings and works on paper.

To offer a more in-depth exploration of De Volder’s rich artistic practice, an online Study Room at Hutchinsonmodern.com accompanies the exhibition.

De Volder (b. 1962, Buenos Aires, Argentina) is a Brooklyn-based multidisciplinary artist whose work often examines the boundary between chaos and restraint. While the curving lines that comprise his compositions are finite – fixed in size, color, and weight – their dynamic loops and intersections imply motion that continues energetically and unhindered through space. De Volder studied at the Escuela Nacional de Bellas Artes Manuel Belgrano in Buenos Aires from 1986 to 1989. In 1993, he won first prize in painting at the III Biennial of Young Artists (Buenos Aires); and the following year, he received a scholarship from the Antorchas Foundation.

De Volder work has been featured in national and international exhibitions, such as Centro Cultural Recoleta, Buenos Aires, Argentina; Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de Buenos Aires (MACBA), Buenos Aires, Argentina; and the Blanton Museum of Art, Austin, Texas. His work is held in numerous private and public collections, such as the Cisneros Collection, Museo Castagnino de Rosario, Santa Fe, Argentina; Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de Buenos Aires (MACBA), Buenos Aires, Argentina; and Museo de Arte Latinoamericano de Buenos Aires (MALBA), Buenos Aires, Argentina.
