2019

Conversely to her sharp opulent Plexiglas installations and kinetic mobiles, Carla Arocha's paintings are flat and pale although the artist’s constant preoccupation with ornament lies beneath the minimal framework. For example, Arocha filled the hard-edged contour of a simple pitched-roof dwelling with bold, meandering loops in House (1999). Two large vertical paintings on canvas made by artist in 1999, entitled Blind Folded and Flare, perfectly echo the artist's passion for pattern, glamour and the superfluous. In these pieces, monochrome fields camouflage dots, diamonds and organic patterns are combined. Carla Arocha’s innate flair for extravagance is only hinted at through subtle shifts in the reflective character of the paint.

In Europe, Carla Arocha’s work has been shown in major solo exhibitions in various renowned institutions, including Antwerp’s Museum van Hedendaagse Kunst Antwerpen (MuHKA) in 2005–2006, and the Fonds régional d'art contemporain d'Auvergne, Clermont-Ferrand in 2006. In 2006, Bern’s Kunsthalle (Switzerland) organized Arocha's first major retrospective in Europe: Carla Arocha: Dirt, which was on show from April to May. Curated by the then director of the Kunsthalle Bern, Philippe Pirotte, and Jesús Fuenmayor in close collaboration with the artist, this major retrospective shed light on the various facets of her work. On the occasion of this show, Carla Arocha asked Stéphane Schraenen to produce a number of artworks. This exchange of ideas would mark the starting point of a long term collaboration that continues to this day.

Arocha's work is part of several the public collections of various museums in the United States, Europe, and South America, including New-York’s MoMA; Chicago’s Museum of Contemporary Art; the Art Institute of Chicago; Antwerp’s Museum of Contemporary Art; Bern's Kunsthalle Bern in Switzerland; the Fonds régional d'art contemporain d'Auvergne, Clermont-Ferrand; the Fundación Banco Mercantil, Caracas; and Boca Raton Museum of Art, Boca Raton in Florida, US.

2006

In 2006, Carla Arocha started working in collaboration with Stéphane Schraenen. Today, the artist-duo Arocha & Schraenen continues to produce pieces, exchange ideas and works in progress, before completing the final artworks together.

Since 2006, pieces resulting from Arocha's collaboration with Stéphane Schraenen are exhibited under the name of Carla Arocha & Stéphane Schraenen in such museums as London’s Wallace Collection (2011), Centro de Arte Contemporáneo de Caja de Burgos (CAB) in Spain (2012); Berlin’s Künstlerhaus Bethaniën (2012); and Mechelen’s Cultuurcentrum in Belgium, (2014).

1996

After moving to Chicago, Arocha had her first American solo museum show at the El Museo del Barrio museum in New York in 1996. In 1997, Arocha first showed her work in a gallery at Chicago’s Rhona Hoffman Gallery. From September 1997 to March 1998, Bloomfield Hills Cranbrook Art Museum  (Michigan) organized Arocha's Carla Preiss: Somewhere. In 1997, when the MCA Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago commissioned a solo project for its main entrance hall, Carla Arocha produced a piece made up of clusters of leopard-print patterns created with mirrored Plexiglas that can be reconfigured upon each installation. In 2001-2002, Arocha created a new artwork entitled Rover for the café windows of the MCA within the context of the Hide installation, then already part of the MCA Collection.

1990

Arocha first made her mark in the mid-1990s with a series of works borrowing from art, fashion, and biology. For example, her drawing Aqua Trace (1998) presents the visual melding of two distinct patterns: leopard spots and blood cells. Rendered in a bright shade of aqua, the two converging patterns are reminiscent of the animal prints found on fabric. Aqua Trace relates to an installation by Arocha entitled Hide (1997) for the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago, and which featured leopard-print patterns created with mirrored Plexiglas. The mirrored Perspex patterns comprising Hide adorned the walls of Chicago's Museum of Contemporary Art like a spectacular jewelled accessory, clusters of reflective plastic shimmering and swaying in the white gallery.

1986

After training as a biologist at the Saint Xavier University (1986), from which she obtained a Bachelor of Science, Carla Arocha radically changed course and steered her path to an artistic career, first studying for a Bachelor of Fine Arts, SAIC School of the Art Institute (1991) before pursuing her studies for a Master of Fine Arts, University of Illinois at Chicago (1994).

1979

Moreover, the rich legacy of modern and contemporary art of her home country and plethora artists such as Jesús Rafael Soto, Carlos Cruz-Diez and Alejandro Otero, to name just a few, left a profound mark on the artist, who was enthralled by the architecture and public artworks scattered through Caracas. In December 1979, Arocha moves Chicago, where she studies biology and art and married to David Preiss. In 1995, a year after graduating from the University of Illinois at Chicago, she meets Belgium painter Luc Tuymans as he was preparing his first American show at Chicago’s Renaissance Society. In 1999, four years later, Arocha moved to Belgium and married Tuymans. The couple lives and works in Antwerp.
