David García (Spain) gifted us a gallery of portraits. His personal view as a photographer shows his sincere and unmasked style. His portraits leave behind what is artificial or extreme. Light and his ability to capture the personality of the person are the only tools that David García uses. From well known personages to ordinary people, his photographies permeate not verisimilitude but truth. As Roland Barthes wrote "Photography has something to do with resurrection", and this statement might be the motto of all David García's photographies.

DAN BALDWIN Print

Eyestorm exclusive limited edition print, The Future Frontline Renegades of Dead London by acclaimed artist Dan Baldwin

Large in scale at 1m x 1m in size, and in an extremely low edition of just 15, this striking new print is what Eyestorm, in collaboration with Dan Baldwin, felt the art world currently needs following the mass production of high edition prints over the past couple of years.

Eyestorm creative director Angie Davey said: “We wanted to bring back the 'unique' element that can be applied to printmaking, achieved here by Dan hand-finishing each piece, so they become more like one-off works than limited edition prints.”

Harbour House in Kingsbridge invites applications from artists keen to show their work in the ground floor gallery of this fine converted Georgian house. The gallery is light and spacious, with high ceilings and large windows, and stands in a prominent position at the head of the Salcombe Estuary.

Harbour House Arts Co-ordinator Alison Veazey explains, "the selection opens once a year, and artists may apply to hold an exhibition for one or two weeks. The gallery lends itself equally well to group exhibitions and solo shows. Our small selection panel includes two invited artists, whose experience is invaluable to us in scheduling a diverse programme of exhibitions through the year."

Yoshin Ogata - Cerchi d'acqua

YOSHIN OGATA

“ cerchi d’acqua”

PERSONALE

Dall’11 GIUGNO AL 4 LUGLIO

INAUGURAZIONE

GIOVEDI’ 11 GIUGNO ORE 18.30

Uno dei segni che più caratterizzano il pianeta è l’acqua. Alla presenza dell’acqua si collega l’origine della vita. Per Yoshin Ogata l’acqua e i suoi segni, la goccia, il flusso, sono sempre stati simboli della vita che scorre, scava, rigenera… Il dialogo di Ogata con l’acqua dura ormai da 30 anni e si è espresso in una gamma vastissima di marmi, graniti di vari colori provenienti da tutto il mondo e che accuratamente sceglie per adattare le sue sculture agli ambienti che le ospitano .

Le sculture di Ogata, in particolar modo quelle monumentali, hanno bisogno del vuoto intorno e del diretto rapporto con l’ambiente che le accoglie in un’unica armonia di fusione. Infatti le sue opere di maggiore dimensione sfuggono a qualunque monumentalità retorica esaltandone la grande essenzialità ed eleganza.

Ogata realizza opere che esaltano i movimenti dell’acqua e soprattutto la caduta della goccia che prende forma,disegna tracce trasformando la dura pietra. Infatti l’artista parte dal concetto della filosofia orientale in cui tutto si elabora e si rinnova attraverso l’energia.

L’acqua e la pietra, sono per Ogata i due elementi primari simboli delle energie della natura e della sua potenza rigenerante …che l’artista vive e sente, attraverso la realizzazione delle sue sculture.

Yoshin Ogata nasce  a Miyakonojo in Giappone nel 1948.

Cenni biografici

Nel 1970 si trasferisce a Londra dove studia al British Museum. Dopo un lungo viaggio attraverso l’Europa, si trasferisce negli Stati Uniti e poi in Messico dove  resta affascinato dagli antichi siti Maya.

Di lui hanno parlato e scritto illustri critici italiani e stranieri e libri monografici sul suo spettacolare e poetico lavoro.

Art Works by Iller Incerti
Gallery News - Gallery Events May 2009

maria pestana art gallery online intends to provide a commercial launch of the art works of selected international artists.

We will have a monthly exhibition. We  have the pleassure to presnt the art works by Iller Incerti

Iller Incerti (Italy) finds his inspiration from his social compromise towards social issues. The use of photography and painting helps to embody his paintings with dramatic or ironic meanings. Writing marks in his works a parallel discourse in which shows his discontent with society, or moves the viewer. Sometimes, irony disturbs us. Photography stops to represent the real object since the subject is transformed by different levels of meanings.

He has widely exhibited at Italy (Firenze, Roma, Milan, Ravena), Spain (Madrid, Barcelona), and Yugoslavia.
