Cruz Novillo Exhibition - Fernando Pradilla Gallery

Two and a half dimensions

Cruz Novillo is one of the Spanish artists who, from the 1970s onwards, undertook the renewal of geometric visual language in Spain. His work is influenced by mathematical, musical and geometric parameters and by various colour theories. In the nineties, he developed the plastic concept of "Diaphragm", a name that encompasses a multitude of works whose common characteristic is the combination of a variable number of monochromatic, sound, photographic or three-dimensional elements.
In his work, geometric abstraction and figuration coexist in a natural way since both come from the patterns marked by the combination of musical notes, numbers and colours.
