Artes visuais Rodrigo Cass dialogues with the constructive tradition in Brazilian art through a formal vocabulary that alludes to the Concrete and Neoconcrete experiments of the 1960s and 1970s. The artist’s interest in intersections and fractures of the pictorial plane is noticeable, leading to his surfaces acquiring volumetric dimensions in space, in canvases, reliefs and videos. Concrete, fiberglass and linen, colored with tempera, are some of his most used materials. Projected onto sculptural objects, Cass’s video works merge the physicality of performance with pictorial logic, in which color and texture appear as an element in the construction of space. In tune with the technically hybrid and conceptually versatile character of Rodrigo Cass’s practice, bodily gestures communicate with brushstrokes on the surface of the painting, creating a field of resonances between formal possibilities and a virtual spatiality. His recent solo exhibitions include Rodrigo Cass: A Joyner/Giuffrida Visiting Artist Program, Nevada Museum of Art, Nevada, USA (2025); libera abstrahere, Fortes D’Aloia & Gabriel, São Paulo, Brazil (2023); Figures, Gestures and Passages, Anthony Meier Fine Arts, San
