Gego, Between Transparency and the Invisible / Gego, entre la Transparencia y lo Invisible was an exhibition organized by The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, presented from June 26 and September 25, 2005. Subsequently, a selection from this exhibition was sent to other locations: MALBA (Buenos Aires); the Biblioteca Luis Ángel Arango [Luis Ángel Arango Library] (Bogotá); and The Drawing Center (New York). Mari Carmen Ramírez, the Wortham Curator of Latin American Art at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, served as curator of the exhibition and author of this text. To date, this was the first time anyone had closely studied what drawing represented within the work of Gego, in spite of the superficial attention given to its importance by other researchers in the past. In her curatorial perspective on Gego’s central focus, Ramírez systematically presents her opinions based on the artist’s own comments. This approach was uncommon among the other researchers, who tended to base their analyses on ad hoc concepts, or perhaps, on current art terminology. In turn, Ramírez compares Gego’s work to that of other drawing masters, such as Paul Klee and Josef Albers, pointing out differences and similarities, and highlighting Gego’s contributions from this perspective. In her interpretation, Ramírez gives more weight to the metaphysical meaning of Gego’s work, although she diligently studied Gego’s handling of the materials to arrive at this conclusion. This makes her criticism radically different from earlier critical perspectives on Gego’s work based and solely focused on the subjective experience. The earlier critics ignored the artist’s engineering background and the industrial outlook that informed the pieces she executed.Fragments of this document are included in the texts selected for the bilingual book, Desenredando la red.
