Orozco developed his method of working in the early 1990s: he would select materials that were local and to hand, often found or ready-made, and decide on a few basic 'rules' to adopt, as if he were setting himself a kind of fictional exercise. This has allowed his work to be very open or porous to the place it was made, as well as to the chance incidents that could upset even the strictest of systems. His choice of a geometric lexicon of circles and circular rotations, often overlaid onto forms in nature, sets in train a series of movements and counter-movements and demonstrates a preoccupation with nature that has continued to the present.

Work Description

This new exhibition takes the 2005 painting 'The Eye of Go' as its starting point, and looks at how the circular geometric motif of this painting - part of a way of thinking for Orozco, a way to organise ideas of structure, organisation and perspective - migrates onto other work, recurring in other paintings, sculptures and photographs. A highlight of the exhibition is a series of large geometric works on acetate, made in the mid 1990s, yet never before exhibited. Rather than surveying the whole range of Orozco's practice, the exhibition seeks to cut a conceptual slice through it, to look deeply into the mechanics of the artist's thinking and working process. Not only does the exhibition propose a different view of Orozco's major contribution to changes in art in the 90s but it brings to the fore the urgent problem of art's 'makeability' now.
