(Drivebycuriosity) - Contemporary art shows many influences. Alex Kanevsky studied theoretical mathematics at Vilnius University in Lithuania before pursuing an artistic career in the United States (wikipedia). Now the artist creates compositions which are inspired by the concept of unstable equilibrium in physics. Gallery Hollis Taggart in New York`s Chelsea district has an exhibition with Kanevsky`s paintings, called "Liberation and Disorientation" (through September 28 2019 hollistaggart ). I display my favorites here, a very subjective selection as usual.
The press release explains "produced between 2018 and 2019 - and most on view for the first time - the works highlight Kanevsky's singular ability to capture the fluidity of time, through a blending of figurative and abstract approaches and rich use of color".
Anyway, I love Kanevsky's unique style. With intentionally imprecise brush strokes he creates surreal images. But let the image speak for themselves.
