What Pablo Lehmann does with language is what most painters do with pigment. Using a layered paper and synthetic cloth approach, Lehmann erects massive letter-based installations, which, like the colors used by a painter vary (dependent on his/her particular mood), Lehmann's "words" develop, while shifting time, space, texture and shape. His process of experimentation— with geometry and space, with his intricate use of paper and words— to create objects, cutouts and wall-hangings may very well be what separates him most from other visual artists.

by Rodrigo Alonso*
For any literature lover, the book is an endless source of senses, a valuable treasure expanding the boundaries of language, a mechanism revealing the universes created by the power of words. For Pablo Lehmann, the book is, in turn, a generator of images, covert shapes and infinite artistic possibilities.
Following the steps of Stephan Mallarmé, Lehmann multiplies the visual strength of pages, although his research is no longer oriented towards the relationship between the word and its medium, but rather towards the relationship between these and the book itself.
Hence, the artist reinforces the concrete presence of the medium against the allusive strength of the text, which insists on denying its own reality.
