EMIL LUKAS
“Entre dos líneas tenues” From January 6 to March 20, 2023
The Pablo Atchugarry Foundation and the Atchugarry Museum of Contemporary Art – MACA present the American artist Emil Lukas for the first time in Uruguay.
This exhibition presents exceptional pieces from the artist’s most important series. The link between these works is Lukas’ deep involvement with his materials and with the natural world. The artist considers that materials and nature are his collaborators in a process of continuous pictorial experimentation. The other ally of Lukas is the spectator. His works reward those who look at them carefully and contemplatively.
The exhibition will be accompanied by a program of activities, workshops, talks and guided tours, and a catalog edited by MACA with texts by Martin Craciun and Robert Mattison where images of all the exhibited works are summarized.
