Try Again

In 1963, Jorge de la Vega deepened the rupture of the limits of pictorial language with the series known as "Monstruos" (Monsters), which continued until 1965. This rupture was based on the expansion of the canvas into space through the inclusion of diverse objects, while maintaining the structure of the painting. In "Try again", a face, probably a molding of architectural ornamentation, moves in a sequence resolved in different techniques, but always frontal, towards the limit of the canvas. This face is far from being a ghostly figure to become a physical presence that impels the viewer from the duplication.
