Ipar-Hegora is a comprehensive exhibition by artist Leo Burge that explores the relationship between structured form and the margin of error in artistic creation. The exhibition brings together drawings, reliefs, display prototypes, and mural works that reflect on journeys, intensity, and the interplay between abstract art and visual subcultures.
The exhibition Ipar-Hegora is conceived as a journey, drawing inspiration from the ebb and flow of natural forces and the creative process itself. It features a diverse range of works, including mural drawings, relief sculptures, and display prototypes, which are structurally defined by the use of mechanised rods and their inherent interplay with material tension and disparity. The exhibition showcases both key works from the artist's recent career and new productions specifically designed for the URIBITARTE40 space, with themes that shift between formal abstraction and references to DIY and surfing subcultures. Through an empirical and phenomenological approach, Leo Burge investigates the surface and support aspects of his projects, creating works that bridge drawing, writing, and freestanding sculpture. The exhibition highlights the artist's interest in how lines and volumes interact with body scale and surrounding gallery space. By reissuing and adapting elements from previous projects—such as works created during residencies at KAMC Yokohama and various exhibitions across Barcelona and Bilbao—the show offers a cohesive overview of Burge's current artistic research and his ongoing fascination with linear volumes and structural form.
Admission to the exhibition is free of charge. Visitors can attend the opening event or book guided tours, with additional information provided on the gallery's website regarding public programmes and events held throughout the exhibition period.
