Guillermo Kuitca, whose paintings and prints are often inspired by seating arrangements in theater interiors, recreated the seating chart for Alice Tully Hall at Lincoln Center in this work. In a characteristic manner, he casts a shadow of red over the diagram, which turns the space into an abstract superposition of planes. One of the most prominent contemporary artists from Latin America, the Argentine Guillermo Kuitca makes haunting paintings of stadiums, airports, theaters, and other public spaces; borrowing imagery from maps, floor plans, and seating charts.
