Gabriel B.
I am a Colombian sculptor born in Bogotá in 1954. Since the late 20th century, I have developed a body of work centred on abstract sculpture, particularly in steel, through which I explore the tension between geometry, balance and movement. Over more than three decades of artistic practice, I have taken part in numerous solo and group exhibitions both in Colombia and abroad, and my work forms part of private and institutional collections. My work is characterised by the use of clean structures and dynamic volumes that seek to integrate the sculpture with the space around it. I don’t consider myself a sculptor. I’m a three-dimensional builder because a sculptor is someone who carves away, who shapes, and I see myself more as a designer of space.
