Luis Molinari
Luis Molinari was a member of VAN, a group of informal constructivist artists founded by Enrique Tabara.
Molinari began his artistic career focused on formalism, but soon discovered the works of Vasarely and was inspired by geometric forms and their rich optical effects. In 1960, Molinari traveled to Paris, France, where he began work with the Group de Recherche d'Art Visuel. He soon developed his own style, inspired by that of his compatriot Tabara, that fused the tropical nature of his hometown into the informal constructivist geometry, toward the creation of a visual autonomy.
As other informalists, Molinari sought to honor the history of his homeland painting in 1974, Temple of the nuns-Uxmal, a tribute to pre-Columbian architecture.
