De Volder (b. 1962, Buenos Aires, Argentina) is a Brooklyn-based multidisciplinary artist whose work often examines the boundary between chaos and restraint. While the curving lines that comprise his compositions are finite – fixed in size, color, and weight – their dynamic loops and intersections imply motion that continues energetically and unhindered through space. De Volder studied at the Escuela Nacional de Bellas Artes Manuel Belgrano in Buenos Aires from 1986 to 1989. In 1993, he won first prize in painting at the III Biennial of Young Artists (Buenos Aires); and the following year, he received a scholarship from the Antorchas Foundation. De Volder’s artwork can be found within internationally-recognized cultural institutions and private collections.
