The Aperitif of the Gallery Weekend

About

Luisa Catucci Gallery is glad to invite you on April 28th, 6:00 - 9:00 pm, to the The Aperitif of the Gallery Weekend 2022.

We would like to celebrate the Finissage and last 3 days of Pablo Griss's show INTERVENTION. 

The Artist will be present.

The carefully researched colour palette, the strict lines, the clear contours, the balanced, elegant precision, the optical effect and the strong energy emanating from Pablo Griss's paintings are the key elements magnetically attracting the viewer to them.

His work is direct, without concessions to useless anecdotes, and straightforwardly hits the point where human consciousness meets the subconscious. It projects the viewer into a kind of parallel universe where the complete acceptance of the interconnectedness of everything is evident, accepted and manifested.

One of his most prolific and well-known series of works, "Color Magnetic Continuum", on which Pablo has been working in recent years, began under the title "Intervention", like the title of this exhibition.

Pablo Griss fishes in the fertile art historical junctions of Minimalism, Kinetics, Neo-Geo and Geometry, creating his own visual language resulting from a series of "interventions" he wanted to give to his predecessors, to free himself from the classical shapes and visual tricks typical of those movements.

The use of the classical squares, triangles, and circles is substituted by rhomboidal shapes and lines, looking like sharp knives or scalpels, as if the artist would display right on top of his compositions the weapons he uses to intervene, cut, and deconstruct the classical codes of geometric art.   

The colors are mainly used flat and compact, always meticulously studied, continuing the researches on Color of his predecessors - such as Carlos Cruz-Diez, or  Joseph Alberts and the Bauhaus school.
