Karin Oiticica : [Spheregnosis]
(1958)

In both media, drawings as well as paintings, linear segments or surfaces are built through accumulation. Another, equally important aspect of this work is the search for beauty in the world around; this reflection evokes multiple aspects about our physical and mental condition. The installation reiterates the performative aspects of the making of the work. Rather than a single obvious reading, there are several readings that are available; we are forced to explore the question of how the museum consciously or unconsciously perpetuates beliefs and behavior.
