In the first half of the 20th century, many modern artists drew inspiration from the concept of four-dimensional space (and the difficulties involved in trying to visualize it). The early Cubists, Surrealists, Futurists, and Abstract artists borrowed ideas from higher-dimensional mathematics and used them to radically advance their work.

Today, one of the most exciting aspects of contemporary art is the possibility of hosting proposals that exceed the limits of what is possible, leading to creations that transcend the boundaries of reality. Contemporary artists embrace this impulse and create pieces that explore the realms of the improbable, hypothetical, impossible, and extraordinary.

In their search for new formats and expressions, some artists face challenges such as size, choice of materials, mobility, functionality, and durability over time. Others work with new forms and materials to avoid logistical limitations in the construction of their works.

In a new curatorial proposal, Galería Azur Madrid presents a journey through the contemporary “New Dimensions” that artists are exploring, including digital art, NFTs, inflatable sculptures, small installations, and a dialogue with more traditional devices. In this way, it offers a space for reflection on the role of contemporary art – a journey of discovery and decoding of new languages – with the conviction that physical and virtual spaces are complementary and have their own meaning.
