Ernesto Caivano

Ernesto Caivano (born 1972 in Madrid, Spain) is a New York-based artist with a primary focus in drawing. Caivano has been exhibited at New York's MoMa PS1 and London's White Cube.

In 2004, Ernesto had a major solo-exhibition at MoMa PS1 titled, After the Woods. The exhibition showcased large scale drawings from Caivano's on-going narrative in which a man, portrayed as a knight, reconvenes with his wife, who became a space vessel, after being segregated for a thousand years.

Along with After the Woods at MoMa PS1, Ernesto Caivano has exhibited work at museums and galleries internationally, such as the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art in Denmark, the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Royal Academy of the Arts in London, and the Whitney Biennial in New York.
