Since October 2021, the Project Room at Saenger Galería has developed a curatorial program in collaboration with guest artists who specifically appropriate the exhibition space. On this occasion, Saenger Galería presents the first solo exhibition of tapatío artist Enrique Hernández in Mexico City, “Una línea en construcción (Fuga incidental)”, curated by Juvenal Urzúa and Christian Barragán.

Assuming as his own the slogan of the North American painter Clyfford Still, “It is intolerable to stop at the edge of a frame”, Enrique Hernández (Guadalajara, 1975) transitions from a painting on canvas with features that debate between post-figurative and abstract, towards a painting closer to the so-called non-objective, through locations that make assemblage their common denominator. After carrying out the project “Traspasar un jardín (el edén enmarañado)”, exhibited at the Museo Cabañas (Guadalajara, 2023) and at the Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de Querétaro (2023-2024), Enrique has deepened and refined his conception of pictorial displacement and now situates his practice in the middle of a disjunctive that he defines as “opening a space of exchange between the introspective and the public”; A line under construction that goes beyond the pictorial surface, that goes beyond it and becomes an incidental flight over the exhibition space, interrupting the conventional course to contemplate and contain a painting, to converse about it.
