Adolfo Estrada (1942) - Composition

Condition: some minor creases or waves on upper area due humidity (area c. 10 cm) otherwise good with strong colors. Adolfo Estrada (*1942, Buenos Aires) is an Argentine painter and architect whose work engages with the principles of the De Stijl movement, seeking to synthesize the individual and the universal. Estrada consistently employs the rectangle as his primordial geometric form. His paintings, such as Painting 0380 (2002), use the texture of the materials and gestural marks to create compositions that evoke a reduced temporality. Critics compare his use of form to Malevitch and Mondrian, noting that his three-dimensional works—like the intersecting rectangles of his altars—radiate a distinguishing receptive silence. Estrada’s art creates environments of stillness, akin to Rothko’s work. This is evident in major projects in Spain, including the mural at the Hospital Universitário de Santiago de Compostela (2002) and the Chapel of San Leonardo (2021).
