New York, NY | “Gego: Lines in Space” at LGDR

LGDR is pleased to welcome ArtTable to Gego: Lines in Space. The exhibition is the first to present Gego’s work at the gallery’s new flagship on 19 East 64th St. A leading figure of Venezuelan abstraction in the 1960s and ’70s, Gego (1912–1994) created multidimensional works that radically engage the properties of line and space. The tour will be led by LGDR Senior Partner, Emilio Steinberger. Presented in collaboration with Fundación Gego, Lines in Space will offer a concentrated survey of the artist’s works across media, including the constellated wire structure Chorro (1979/86), the six-part steel-and-bronze sculpture Cornisa I (1967), and her luminous watercolors, collages, and drawings.

This presentation follows those organized by Lévy Gorvy in New York (2015) and London (2016), continuing a long-standing relationship with the artist’s estate. Lines in Space coincides with a major retrospective of the artist’s work on view at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York (March–September 2023), which traveled from Museo Jumex in Mexico City (October 2022–February 2023), and the Museu de Arte de Sao Paulo (2019–20), and will continue on to the Guggenheim Bilbao (October 2023–February 2024).

Thank you to Julia P Herzberg, PhD for coordinating this program.
