About
Born in 1966, Dudu Garcia lives and works in Rio de Janeiro. He studied Industrial Design at PUC-Rio, as well as Painting, Art History, Philosophy and the Creative Process.
He has taken part in exhibitions at museums and galleries in Brazil and abroad, among them the Museu de Arte Moderna do Rio de Janeiro, the Museu de Arte Moderna da Bahia (Salvador), Centro Cultural dos Correios, Paco Imperial and the Museu de Arte Contemporanea de Niteroi.
In Brazil he has shown at galleries such as Nara Roesler and Luisa Strina, in Sao Paulo. Abroad his work has been exhibited in France (Galerie Debret, Paris), England (Gallery 32, London), Belgium (Tendler Gallery, Brussels), the United States (Violet Ray, New York) and Japan (Motoazabu Gallery, Roppongi Hills, Tokyo).
His work is held in the permanent collections of those institutions and in private collections in Brazil, such as BGA – Brazil Golden Art, and abroad, such as the Rosario and Paulo Pimenta Collection, in Portugal. Critical texts on his work have been written by Marcus Lontra, Reinaldo Roels, Silvia Meira, Marcos Campos, Jacqueline Vojta and Simon Lane.
He works in series, in a way comparable to an industrial process, and always presents his work in dialogue with the exhibition space (site-specific). It can be related to movements such as Arte Povera, Concrete Art and Abstract Expressionism.
He displaces unnoticed urban landscapes into a field of analysis and action, with time as a partner in a painting that uses organic materials: stone dust, earth, oil, rubber and slime as its paint, on linen, hemp and cotton canvases.
