My work is a series of relations, between the day-by-day life, my own memories, history, and irony. In the works, the audience is brought through a world where obscene and the impure are put on display,arranged in a paradoxical and surreal make-believe world. Usually everything is installed together, combining different medias, such as painting, graphic printing, and […]
Beverly McIver at Betty Cuningham Gallery
Within the paintings of Beverly Mclver you can always find an abrupt tension between the faces of her subjects and the objects that accompany them. In the self-portrait, Eyes Wide Open (2013), McIver utilizes a diptych to illustrate a moment where her eyes are closed, and when they are gaze directly at her viewers. A […]

When I paint, I am so close to my core, so close to my true self, that I almost loose myself. I am entering a space that isn’t mine anymore. A small space, yet without limitation. This is where everything connects. Should I call it fantasy, or simply bliss, or joy? I don’t know. But […]
Daniel Cooney Fine Art is Making Waves
Salt water skin, stretched Lycra, pearled perspiration, oiled up glutes, and bathing caps. Making Waves illuminates the epitome of summertime through this conglomeration of photographs. Daniel Cooney Fine Art captures the sensual and blithe antics of summer, while also effectively using the potency of memory and identity to anchor the exhibit. The show incorporates archetypal […]
Mathieu Lefevre: The Stuff Things Are Made Of at Regina Rex
The art world revolves around objects, but much of its substance exists in the discourse surrounding those objects—in the myths about artists and expression; the theories devised to understand and evaluate works of art; the rules that determine their commercial value; the viewers’ desires, expectations, and knowledge of art history. The artist-run space, Regina Rex, […]

On view, congested layers of materials visually intersperse in both color and medium. Intricate layering of paper shapes rise up to form an actual shallow space that […]

The largest group of my works, to which I have devoted myself exclusively for four years, is entitled “Fish”. It is constantly being enriched with newer pieces which parallel the other bodies of work. At first sight, these new bodies of work may seem totally different from one another as well as from the fish […]

Although I am a ceramic artist, glass is an essential part of my sculptures. What fascinates me about glass is the way light penetrates the glass, how the rays travelling through the work make the colours shine and glow, and how the ever-changing light transforms the work. In my sculptures, ceramic forms the frame and […]

I am a landscape and portrait photographer. The collection showing an old man attracted the most attention in the world. With landscape photos I try to warn people not to destry our beautiful planet. The story about the man tells about his last days. He was living alone in the mountains in a 200 year […]
