Paco Marcial
Bio
Paco Marcial (b. Mexico City) is a sculptor whose work channels the aesthetics, philosophy, and mythology of motorsport. He received his BFA from the Escuela Nacional de Artes Plásticas (ENAP-UNAM) and pursued postgraduate studies at the Jan Van Eyck Akademie in the Netherlands. His practice often blurs the lines between conceptual sculpture, mechanical engineering, and romantic fantasy. Marcial is the founder of Écurie Marchal, a meta-conceptual racing team of sculptures now based in New York.

Fallow Frames Biennial 2026
September 19 — 20 2026
Ridgewood, Queens NY
1pm — 6pm
20 Empty Tree Beds - 23 Participating Artists
Ridgewood's sidewalks contain more than 800 empty street tree beds, roughly one for every 90 residents. For one weekend, twenty of these overlooked spaces will be transformed into temporary, site-specific artworks by 23 participating artists.
Visitors are invited to explore the neighborhood on foot, discovering how contemporary art can temporarily transform familiar streets while reflecting on public space, urban ecology, and the hidden potential of the city's overlooked landscape.
