Description
In Brio, Lorena Villalobos works across the canvas in acrylic, assembling fragments — geological, organic, partially figural — into a composition of genuine velocity.
A mushroom form anchors the centre; a bird or mask appears at the upper right; red cuts through at the edges. It is among the more viscerally charged examples of Costa Rican abstract art in her body of work.
Art historian and former Costa Rican Minister of Culture Carlos Francisco Echeverría has described her work as among the most significant to have emerged from the region in recent times. She is among twenty-six artists named as Modern and Contemporary Masters in Central American Modernism (Ford and Snider, 2018).
Framing not included.
