STUNNING NEW PAINTINGS AND PHOTOGRAPHY EXPLORE IDEAS OF TRANSFORMATION We are pleased to present an exhibition of new abstract paintings and photography by Ricardo Mazal, one of Mexico’s most prominent contemporary artists. While Mazal’s practice has always been rooted in ideas of transformation, particularly with his long-running explorations into sacred burial rituals of diverse cultures, this new series reveals a more personal narrative, as the artist taps into transitions in his own life for inspiration. These remarkable canvases, awash in rich, earthy hues, build on Mazal’s ongoing engagement with spiritual themes while demonstrating his increasingly abstract approach.   ABOUT THE ARTIST   Ricardo Mazal was born in Mexico City in 1950. Since 2000, he has had fourteen individual museum exhibitions in Mexico and the United States, including five retrospectives of his work at the Museo de Arte Contemporaneo de Monterrey (2000), the Museo de Arte Moderno de la Ciudad de México (2006), the Museo de Arte de Querétaro (2009), the Museo de Arte Abstracto Manuel Felguerez (2010) and the Center for Contemporary Arts Santa Fe, as well as thematic exhibitions in the Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art (2006), the Museo Nacional de Antropología (2004 -2005) and the Centro Cultural Estación Indianilla, among others. In 2015 Mazal’s work was included in Frontiers Reimagined, a Collateral Event of the 56th Venice Biennale and in 2018, there was a major retrospective of his work held at the Center For Contemporary Arts, Santa Fe, New Mexico. Mazal’s work is included in the permanent collections of The Minneapolis Institute of Art, Minnesota; Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art, Arizona; Museo de Arte Moderno, Mexico City; Museo de Arte Abstracto Manuel Felguérez, Zacatecas, Mexico; Maeght Foundation, Paris; Centro de las Artes, Monterrey, Mexico; Cirque du Soleil, Montreal; the Peninsula Hotel, Shanghai; and Deutsche Bank, New York and Germany.   CLICK TO VIEW THE CATALOGUE SUNDARAM TAGORE CHELSEA 547 West 27th Street • New York, NY 10001 • 212 677 4520 #fineartmagazine
