RICARDO RENDON

Employing traditional construction and industrial materials, such as wood, steel, wool felt and enamel paint, Mexican artist Ricardo Rendón methodically investigates how they interact with each other and their environment. Above all, he delves into how these materials can be transformed by means of a calculated artistic intervention. Thanks to this approach, over the years Rendón has created a body of work that distinguishes itself for both its intrinsic quality—the result of the artist’s material knowledge and skilled craftsmanship—and its intellectual and conceptual character.
In combining art, crafts and technology as well as mathematical observations and an overall interest for experimentation, Rendón exalts the qualities of the materials he works with and seeks beauty in reduction.
In 2019 Rendón had his first solo show at Galerie Wenger.
