Benjamin Sack's Pen-and-Ink Metropolises: Solo Shows from Berlin to Mexico City

Benjamin Sack, an American artist who earned his BFA with Magna Cum Laude honors from Virginia Commonwealth University in 2011, is known for his elaborate pen-and-ink drawings, which he refers to as 'Composer of worlds.' His artwork features geometric shapes to illustrate architecture, ranging from sharp angles to gentle curves, evoking a strong sense of space and scale. Influenced by historical cartography, classical music, art history, and literature, Sack’s creations are often termed 'symphonies of ink.' He has held solo exhibitions at Galeria Ethra in Mexico City, Numeroventi in Florence, and Direktorenhaus in Berlin, and has participated in group shows at venues like StolenSpace Gallery in London and Robert Fontaine Gallery in Miami. In 2019, he received the graphics award at the International Arts Festival from the Museum of Russian Art, where he also showcased a solo exhibition. Follow him on Instagram at @ibensack.
