Fanny Sanín: Geometric Equations

The first solo career-survey of the Colombian artist Fanny Sanín in New York, curated by Dr. Edward J. Sullivan, the works reinforce Sanín’s position as a figure within the development of abstract art in both Latin America and the United States.
Dedicated primarily to geometric abstraction, Fanny Sanín’s prolific career spans five decades. Her paintings, drawings, and prints have been exhibited widely throughout Latin America, the United States, and Europe. This exhibition will be the first institutional presentation of Sanín’s paintings in New York—where she has lived and worked for 53 years. the exhibition will feature several free-form abstract compositions demonstrating the strength of the artist’s early work before moving into her characteristic geometry-based production. Twenty major paintings and two dozen smaller studies will be installed in loosely chronological order to guide visitors through the subtle changes in Sanín’s use of color and form to explore geometry’s possibilities.
To accompany the show, Americas Society will present a series of public programs and publish a catalogue.
