ABOUT THE WORK

Foremost among Luz’ visual repertoires are still lifes of bowls and other ceramic items, which he drew in groups juxtaposed on severe planar situations. All transcend their mundane character, creating what can be described as contemplative formal equivalents to mystical experiences Arturo Luz has devoted his sixty year career to a highly stylized version of minimal austerity. Luz personifies the impulse toward pristine compositions.
