The Argentinian artist Guillermo Kuitca has long been obsessed with theater. In the early 1980s, as a young man, he met the German choreographer Pina Bausch and followed her to Wuppertal, a trip that would inspire his first paintings. It is often said that Kuitca’s artistic investigations of architectural plans and geographical maps retain a presence—something like an echo, or the energy onstage after a performer exits. In recent years, Kuitca has progressed to a “cubistoid” style, through which he explores the intricacies of movement within stasis. He speaks of his painting in terms of sound and space and echoes and kinetics. This exhibition marks 50 years since his first exhibition, in 1974 at Liloray gallery, just a few blocks away. —Elena Clavarino
