Cesar Henao | Contemporary Art, Kinetic Sculpture & Infinitisations
César Henao is a distinguished contemporary painter and plastic artist whose practice bridges the gap between traditional fine arts and cutting-edge digital technology. Originally from Bogotá and trained at the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris, César Henao has spent over forty years developing a unique visual language characterized by kinetic principles and radical geometry. His website, Infinitisations, showcases a career dedicated to exploring the concept of the singularity—divided into the singularity of being, the gravitational singularity of black holes, and the technological singularity of artificial intelligence. One of the central pillars of his work is the Infinitisations series, which employs a complex selective process involving resin mineral plates, digital palette graphics, and UV-burnt paints to create optical phenomena that challenge the observer's perception. César Henao is also a signatory of the Fractal Manifesto, reflecting an artistic approach that creates proliferating, random, and labyrinthine universes. His large-scale public installations, such as the kinetic sculpture Aurea Duo, create immersive, multi-sensory experiences that engage with space and time. Living and working in France, César Henao continues to push the boundaries of formal representation. His portfolio includes acclaimed series such as Accretion and the I-A-S works, which have been exhibited internationally, including at notable venues like Galerie Annotiau in Rodez. Through his innovative use of materials and unprecedented realization processes, César Henao remains at the forefront of the contemporary art scene, merging scientific inquiry with profound aesthetic sensitivity.
