Pablo Rasgado
Pablo Rasgado’s paintings and installations serve as a visual record of contemporary urban human behavior. Rasgado wanders through the urban landscape in Mexico City and other major cities, looking for moments of intrigue in the dirt and debris. He captures these details by extracting materials from the sites and deploying them in the gallery. Raw materials thus become abstract paintings, which are both actively engaged with the site of their origin and politically and socially charged. Avenida Corona del Rosal (2011) is a section of wall extracted from the Mexico City street named in the title. It has been “painted” with an accumulation of byproducts of automobiles—diesel soot, dirt, tire and brake particles—to create an ironically poetic and beautiful portrait of the pollution that ravishes the city.
Pablo Rasgado reconfigures everyday life into new abstractions. Often thinking through architecture, public space, and the sculptural relationship to the human body, his work often carries political or social commentary.
