Conceptual Art

Enrique Figueredo is a Venezuelan-American artist whose work examines globalization, immigration, economics, and religion through the patterns, designs, motifs, and symbols associated with ancient civilizations, the colonization of the Americas, and mythology. Drawing on the disconnect between personal experience and established historical narratives, Figueredo cultivates a figurative space where communities may freely engage with history. His newest kinetic sculpture Viajes de la Gran Flota Blanca (Voyages of the Great White Fleet) 1899-  is an inquiry into the induction and visualization of circular time, the repetitions of history, and the mixing of the past, present, and future.
