PÉRÉGRINATIONS

About

 Hadjiganev’s latest collection, Pérégrinations, features new oil on canvas landscapes, as well as sensitive still lifes. Hadjiganev captures simple, organic moments with only a few elements, visible brush strokes and an incredible handling of natural light. This is Albert Hadjiganev’s second solo exhibition at Hugo Galerie. 

Pérégrinations, the title of Hadjiganev’s latest exhibition. A long journey. From Normandy to Andalucia. Vast landscapes and profound still life paintings embody the latest collection. Arresting views come to life in Pérégrinations. 

Hadjiganev’s representations of the natural world are painterly and rich; they are emotional depictions of shadow and light, of the sky and the sea, of day and night. The painter’s exceptional treatment of light, color and shadow, along with his organic palettes and stark contrasts create his signature style. His large oil on canvas paintings capture the conflicting dualities inherent in nature – light and dark, freedom and control, beauty and melancholy. His works maintain a delicate balance between a sense of foreboding and one of welcoming. Hadjiganev’s landscapes are simultaneously perceptive impressions of the physical world and visual representations of the artist’s life, struggles and views of humanity.
