Color Forest

About

The Luciana Matalon Foundation is pleased to present the exhibition Color Forest, duo-show by Laurel Holloman and Susi Kramer. The abstract paintings of Holloman (USA, 1971) will dialogue in a completely new situation with the acrylic glass sculptures of Kramer (Switzerland, 1947), thus telling the audience of the encounter between two artists although they belonged to different worlds and generations, they established a surprisingly rich and readable dialogue.

At the center of the work of both, there is the color: that it is painted in large material and suggestive backgrounds, as in the works of Holloman, or imprisoned in purity of forms in the acrylic glass that is the signature of Kramer, the wise use of the color will lead the visitor on a journey of the joy of living, of the Mediterranean atmospheres, of the feminine sensitivity to nature and feelings combined with constant experimentation and technical mastery.   
On display more than 30 works, mostly pieces made specifically for the Milan exhibition or representative of the most recent production of both artists. Both for Laurel Holloman and Susi Kramer, the one at the Matalon Foundation is the first exhibition in Milan, for Kramer in absolute terms the first in Italy.
