Infinite Regress VIV

2016

Infinite Regress VIV presents a tightly composed field of geometric abstraction rendered in Flashe on linen, a pairing that gives the work its characteristic surface quality, simultaneously matte and luminous, with color that feels absorbed into the weave rather than sitting atop it. Completed in 2016 as part of Ore-Giron's ongoing Infinite Regress series, the painting draws from a constellation of visual traditions including pre-Columbian pattern systems, psychedelic graphic culture, and the hard-edged abstraction of the Latin American geometric lineage. The result is a work that feels both ancient and precisely contemporary, structured by repetition and symmetry yet animated by color relationships that resist any sense of stillness. Ore-Giron, who is based in Los Angeles and of Peruvian and Irish descent, has developed this body of work as a sustained investigation into the politics and pleasures of ornament, treating decorative systems not as peripheral to painting's concerns but as central to them. The Infinite Regress paintings propose that pattern carries cultural memory and that geometric form is never neutral. At 76.2 by 63.5 centimeters, Infinite Regress VIV is an intimate work that rewards close looking, its internal logic becoming more intricate and more layered the longer a viewer remains with it. Signed by the artist and offered through Fleisher/Ollman, this work represents a strong example from a pivotal moment in Ore-Giron's practice, before his profile expanded significantly through major institutional recognition.
