Paco Marcial

Paco Marcial  explores the notions of brutality, beauty, precarity, speed and fantasy in his work through sculptural objects tinged with reminiscences  of motorsport racing, verging on oneiric romanticism mostly when he's trying to built his own Maserati.

He was born in Mexico City and received his BFA at Escuela Nacional de Artes Plásticas ENAP UNAM, in Mexico City. Also he had studies at the Jan Van Eyck Akademie in Maastricht Netherlands. For several years he was Jason Rhoades main assistant. 

He is the founder, president, director, team manager, engineer, main driver & mechanic of Écurie Marchal (a philosophical & meta-conceptual racing team of sculptures) 

Écurie Marchal was born in Modena Italy in 2008, over the Preda Ringadora right in front of the Palazzo Comunale; that same year it moves to Berlin-Prenzlauer Berg Germany. Later on it was relocated in New York in the former premises of one of the secret buildings of the Manhattan Project. He continues working in New York City.
