Gaddier Rosario’s work is deeply rooted in his Puerto Rican heritage. His paintings and works on paper speak to the human condition through a diverse language of form, color, and texture. Rosario’s works evoke the rich context of his hybrid Latin/Caribbean heritage and simultaneously convey aspects shared cross-culturally. Figurative elements in his works shift between abstraction and representational imagery, constructing characters as varied and colorful as those that inhabit his memories and those of his home here in New England.
Composed of a collection of select paintings, editioned prints, and works on paper, the exhibition explores the artist’s genuine fondness for exploring color and its relationship to the viewer’s emotional response. In Toro bravo, Rosario composes a distorted image of a bull through several bands of vivid color, each bending and swaying into an abstracted form that is simultaneously violent and calm. Rosario himself is reflected in each one of his works, imbuing each with a small vision of himself—creating imaginary ‘self portraits’ of shifting color, abstracted shapes, and subjective perception.
