Artist

Marta Chilindron

Born in Buenos Aires, 1951 and lives in New York

Marta Chilindron has always created art which explores perspectival, temporal and spatial relationships through veristic paintings, in her early works, and recent sculptural installations.
In the 1990s, the artist began experimenting with furniture forms, altering their shape to reflect her point of view in relation to the physical space.  From these works emerged Chilindron’s collapsible sculptures, which can be opened and closed to alternate between flat, abstract compositions and fully three-dimensional forms.
Since 2000, the artist has worked in transparent and color acrylics, creating manipulable objects which change shape and color.  In 2010, Chilindron was invited to create a public installation as part of the Fokus Lodz Biennale in Poland, and her sculptures were featured as a special project at the Museum of Latin American Art (MoLAA) in Long Beach, California earlier in 2013.
Her most recent solo exhibition at The Great Hall Exhibitions at the Institute of Fine Arts, New York University, featured a variety of her sculptures including Cube 48 Orangeand Green Pyramid. This exhibition played upon the contrasting aesthetic styles of the artist’s minimal work and the decorated interior to draw forth dialogues on their shared considerations: construction, proportionality and visitor interaction.
Chilindron’s artworks are included in the collections of the Blanton Museum, Austin, Texas; El Museo del Barrio, New York; CIFO, Miami; Banco do Spiritu Santo, Portugal; the State University of New York; Fonds D’Art Contemporain de Ville de Geneve, Switzerland, and private collections internationally.
