About
“CHIMERA” investigates the visual destabilization through the artistic output of three artists and their mastery of the line and the exploration of pure colors and shapes to create mixed media artworks of intense vibrancy and life. The exhibition’s title refers to a visual illusive approach and also reflects and criticizes aspects of contemporary fictitious society. This avant-gardist show, mixing polished Perspex, pure pigments, mirrored glaze, thick epoxy, wood panels, canvases and paper cuts will reveal twenty new artworks devoted to deceptive optical effects, bright and joyful colors that mislead our perception just as our interpretation of facts is tricked daily.
It is noteworthy how the floating imaginative shapes of Nelio’s subtle composition and bold infinite holes-like 1010’s artworks, which are visible in galleries, museums and in the urban landscapes all around the world will be exhibited in New York City, contemporary art capital and street art mecca,’ for the first time, welcomed by the well known and prominent City’s figure of Ron Agam.
