The sculptor and painter Pedro Friedeberg works in a richly detailed, surreal, and eccentric artistic style that blends influences from neoclassical art, M.C. Escher, and native Mesoamerican symbolism. he has maintained a prolific and remarkable artistic practice for the last sixty years, and his influence can be felt across generations of artists.
In “Geometria Polaca,” Pedro Friedeberg uses color and humor to create an intricate design referencing the Polish language, geometry, religion, and art. The composition comprises different progressions of repeated facial features and includes a list of three-dimensional geometric shapes in Polish with their respective equations.
