In a practice spanning nearly two decades, Jose Dávila has created
an expressive body of work that explores the visual tropes and
iconic symbols of art, architecture, and urban design. Initially
trained as an architect and self-educated as a visual artist,
Dávila creates sculptures, installations and photographic works
that simultaneously emulate, critique, and pay homage to
20th-century avant-garde art and architecture, referencing artists
and architects from Luis Barragán to Josef Albers and Donald Judd.
Humor and melancholy co-mingle in works that often explore the
tension between industrial and organic materials and the forces of
compression and balance. This monograph assesses the full scope of
Dávila’s practice in all media for the first time, and includes
texts attesting to the historical and social dimensions of
Dávila’s art. Essays address the artist’s early pieces, his
exercises on balance, sculpture, graphics and paintings, and his
works in public space.
