GEGO, Gertrud Louise Goldschmidt (b. 1912 in Hamburg, d. 1994 in Caracas) was one of the leading artists of her generation in Latin America, known above all for her large-scale spatial installations. She regarded her works not as sculptures, but as structures or drawings in space.
Film maker Nathalie David combines present day footage from Caracas and archive footage of Gego’s work and life with Gego’s texts and statements from curators, art historians and family members.
