    About The Work

    This mixed media work on paper is from an ongoing series by Venezuelan artist Mercedes Elena González entitled September 1955, inspired by the inaugural issue of Integral, an architecture and art magazine published in Caracas during the mid-1950s. The cover image featured clusters of shapes distributed along various register lines, some of which were horizontal, while others curved. The work attempts to address the abstract notion of modernity, capturing “an exact moment in time, its historical weight and the questions it raises.”
