Summary:
The first career-spanning survey on the self-taught Mexican sculptor. Mexican artist Jose Dvila (born 1974) playfully and critically explores the visual tropes of art, architecture and urban design. His sculptures reflect the phenomenon of gravity and the laws of static and dynamic energy, paying homage to modernist icons such as Donald Judd and Dan Flavin.
