“Soft Bone Journey” is the first solo exhibition in Italy by artist Gerasimos Floratos, in which he presents new bodies of work.
About
A first generation Greek American and native New Yorker, Gerasimos Floratos’ paintings and sculptures play with the idea of site specificity and the notion of what it means to be ‘rooted’ in a single place. His works employ pyscho-figurative bodies as mechanisms for charting space in many forms; psychogeography of the globalised world, societies or microcosms built through commonalities of practice, and the internal space of the mind. For the artist, the slouchy alter egos present throughout his work operate as sites for exploring the relationship between the material and psychological bodies. The coded visual language present throughout his practice is partnered with a unique lexicon from which he draws titles for the works and exhibitions.
Current, upcoming and recent solo exhibitions include: Schloss, Oslo (2018); Soft Bone Journey, Armada, Milan (2017); Big Town, Pilar Corrias Gallery, London (2016); White Columns, New York, NY (2016). His work has been included in recent group shows at Salon 94, New York, NY (2016); Murray Guy, New York, NY (2016); and Know More Games, Brooklyn, NY (2015) among others.
