Lygia Clark | Zigzags and Curves: A Two–Part Exhibition

Lygia Clark is included in Zigzags and Curves, an exhibition by Sarah Crowner, on view at Galerie Nordenhake in Mexico City through March 14, 2026. 

This two–part exhibition is presented across two sites – Galerie Nordenhake's Mexico City space and Casa Roja in Lomas de Chapultepe, and brings together a group selection of works developed by Crowner in close dialogue with Galerie Nordenhake Mexico City partner Toni Sadurni, reflecting years of shared travel and research across Mexico and Latin America. Hard-edge geometries and linear structures recur throughout the installation, where zigzags and angular rhythms operate as both formal devices and compositional strategies. Concepts such as gradient, scenario, and stagecraft become integral to the exhibition, echoing Crowner’s interest in how color and form operate physically and temporally. Yellow carpets and curtains introduce a scenographic dimension that activates movement through the space, while the graphic language of the zigzag draws from motifs encountered during Crowner’s extended stays in Mexico, including patterns found in pre-Hispanic visual languages and architectural sites such as Mitla and Tajín.
