Ricci Albenda is an American contemporary visual artist and sculptor. His sculptures harness traditional and idiosyncratic perspectival systems to represent bare architectural spaces that may be feasible, but are never real.
His deep exploration of language and the written word has led him to develop his own fascinating system in which the alphabetical and numerical system are paired with the color wheel.
Albenda has been exhibited extensively, both in the United States and abroad at venues including: The Guggenheim Museum, New York, The Rachofsky House, Dallas, Tel Aviv Museum of Art, Tel Aviv, Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston, Brooklyn Museum of Art, Brooklyn, Castello Di Rivoli, Turin, Museum of Modern Art, New York, MoMA PS1, Queens, Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris, and the New Museum, New York.
