"Material Witness" is a mid-career retrospective of Jorge Rojas’s abstract work drawing on over fifteen years of experimentation with materials and media. This exhibition presents an overview of 2D and 3D works from 2003 to the present, highlighting two periods of time when he lived in New York City—from 1993-1997 and again from 2002-2009. Importantly, these periods reflect the artist’s engagement with Minimalism, post-Minimalism, Color Field painting, Process Art, and Concrete Art—while infusing these influences with his Mexican roots and understanding of Mesoamerican art, materials, and cosmovision.
