Collagraphs for Sculpture
After his recent sculpture shows at Brattleboro Museum and Helen Day Art Center (VT) and Governor’s Island (NY), Rodrigo Nava debuts at C.X. Silver Gallery his series of collagraph prints, a book accompanying this exhibition, and selected sculpture in new installations inside and out front of the gallery. cxsilvergallery.com/rodrigo-nava
Inspired by textures and shapes of vessels and other objects of his home and studio, Nava sees these collagraphs “as much a part of my oeuvre as the sculptures themselves” and values both their relic-like qualities of uncertainty and imperfection as remnants of his processes and experiences and the sculptural qualities of way the collagraph plate is prepared.
The show opens Saturday November 14 and run through March 2016. Please join us for the opening reception for the artist and book launch, Saturday, November 14, 4-6pm at the Gallery, 814 Western Avenue. Gallery hours, otherwise, are by appointment, calling ahead recommended, (802) 257-7898 or info@cxsilvergallery.com.
