Ernesto Neto

Ernesto Saboia de Albuquerque Neto is a contemporary visual artist. Ernesto Neto began exhibiting in Scotland in 1988 and has had solo exhibitions abroad since 1995. Neto's work has been described as "beyond abstract minimalism". His installations are large, soft, biomorphic sculptures that fill an exhibition space that viewers can touch, poke, and walk on or through. They are made of white, stretchy material—amorphous forms stuffed with Styrofoam pellets or, on occasion, aromatic spices. In some installations, he has also used this material to create translucent scrims that transform the space's walls and floor. His sculptures can be regarded as expression of traditional abstract form, but in their interaction with the viewer, they work on another level as well.
