Hidden Worlds: Prints and Drawings by Erik Desmazières

Hidden Worlds, a new exhibition of work by French master printmaker Erik Desmazières, journeys through the artist’s intricately detailed spaces, revealing imaginary cosmos and surrealist views of everyday scenes. With the meticulous draftsmanship of Old Masters like Dürer and Piranesi, Desmazières creates works that envision new worlds - images based both on the artist’s imagination and experiences. The exhibition highlights Desmazières’ early work, heavy with fantasy and science fiction leanings, and is supplemented by later uniquely cerebral views of Parisian rooftops, arcades, and ateliers. Hidden Worlds explores these complexly inviting spaces through prints and drawings that span Desmazières’ nearly six-decade career.
