Matisse in Baltimore
By Tony Zaza, The Roving Eye The lack of glamor surrounding the current show at the Baltimore Museum of Art, no hype, no bangles and merchandizing, is a tribute to the artist. Let the work speak for itself. One might expect this to be a New Yorkish show, but Baltimore harbours one of the largest […]

One Burning Question with Peter Demos
Peter Demos isn’t afraid to trim things back. Using a strategically reduced color palette and limiting his language of abstraction at every turn, his work is hard-edged, bold, and easy to identify as his own.

My work consists of three major projects developed throughout my career: El Porqué de Valparaíso (Why Valparaíso?), La Huella del Tiempo (The Footprint of Time), and Del Salitre a Iquique (From Saltpeter to Iquique). It is vital to experience the geographical and ethnographic spaces in situ, in order to connect emotionally and intellectually with my […]

My paintings, which are often referred to as “atmospheric expressionism” for their dreamscape colors and bizarre images, are largely an attempt to determine how far the human imagination can stretch itself, by allowing the work to push the limits of the mind’s eye. I believe the human imagination is as deep and as vast as […]
Talking Mythology, Race, and Class with Michele Basora
Leah Oates: How did you become an artist and did you know early on that you would be in the arts, or did you begin as something else? Where there other artists in your family? Michele Basora: Yes, I knew I was an artist at a very young age. My uncle was a visionary artist […]
