A CONTEMPORARY DIVE
NEW YORK – MADRID CONNECTION
Honoring many years of partnership, the New York-based gallery, Saphira & Ventura and Madrid-based, Santana Gallery present A Contemporary Dive, a contemporary exhibition with the support of the New York International Contemporary Art Society, showcasing six artists represented by S&V, some returning to Madrid and others making their Spanish debut. Curated by Alcinda Saphira and Miguel Santana, this international collection will be presented at P de la Castellana, 190 Chamartín, 28046 Madrid and will run from June 24th to the 30th.
New York–June 15 On the evening of Thursday, June 27, Madrid will see the reception of an international exhibition, hosted by Santana Gallery featuring the contemporary collection of New York-based, Saphira & Ventura Gallery, which will present six of its iconic artists of different mediums and styles yet each of them exploring the elements of contemporary aesthetics in their own merit.
Among these artists is Bari Bing, based in New York and Miami, who cultivates a balance between form and color with her lush abstract works, as well as Larissa Linhares, whose intuitive drive propels her to create marvelous shades of abstract colors on the canvas. The exhibition will also feature the works of figurative painter, Jeena Raghavan, whose dense patterns and vibrant colors accentuate the strength of the subjects she paints. While abstract painter, Maria Page, entices the viewer with bold strokes, elaborate transitions and fresh texture. On the other hand, when it comes to a more geometric approach, Ana Luiza Varella’s technique encompasses the grace of how colors and shapes can have a profound influence, mixing both symmetrical and asymmetrical components. Finally, the works of Alzi Platts, will be presented, showcasing the artist’s talent for creating dynamic pieces that blend contemporary elements with older influences.
