JOSÉ DÁVILA EXHIBITS THE CIRCULARITY OF DESIRE AT SEAN KELLY NEW YORK

The exhibition is based upon research Dávila conducted during the pandemic into the iconography of the circle and its presence throughout art history in the 20th and 21st centuries.

The circle is the symbolic element of human progress.” Comprised of new paintings, sculptures, and silkscreens on cardboard, themes of circularity and the recurrent influence and circular forms throughout art history unite these three interrelated bodies of work.
