Topographies of Memory is the first mid-career survey of works by artist Gamaliel Rodgriguez. Known for his striking use of color; monochromatic palette; and eerily familiar, yet non-descript landscapes, Rodgriguez’s practice pushes the boundaries of drawing. Rodriguez has spent much of his career examining the complexities of history, both the clarity and vagueness of memory, the fragile state of infrastructures within society, and the balance between humankind and nature. His works place these elements in conversation with one another, using his distinct aesthetic to highlight their evolving power dynamic.
