Description

Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This striking contemporary artwork features a bold, abstract composition dominated by shades of blue and pink. The painting's energetic brushstrokes and distorted, fragmented forms create a dynamic, almost violent visual effect. The subject matter is ambiguous, with recognizable human figures and limbs emerging amidst the expressive, gestural abstraction. The artist's distinctive style blends elements of expressionism and cubism, conveying a sense of emotional intensity and psychological tension. This work likely reflects the artist's intention to challenge traditional representational art and explore the boundaries between figuration and abstraction. ...

Artist

Adrian Paci

B.1969, Albanian

Adrian Paci was born in Shkodër, Albania in 1969. Paci lives and works between Milan and Shkodër. Using his own experience of immigration from Albania to Italy, and stories of family and friends, Paci addresses such issues as exile, identity, memory and collective history. Paci’s body of work looks back on those tumultuous times, addressing the radical political shifts of his homeland as it transitioned away from communism to a chaotic free market economy and his subsequent experiences as an artist in exile. Using media such as video, installation, painting, and photography, Paci reflects upon an existential condition – dislocation, loss and the rediscovery of one’s origins with a immediacy and irony sense. His investigations lead him to question the role of the artist and the truly nature of the work of art, in an ongoing, subtle celebration of everyday life. Through his work, Paci inserted himself into social situations, engaging both his private and public life in an effort to discover -or recover- how we live, by creating works situated in the everyday, Paci reveals how our lives are interconnected and how are shaped by our environmental boundaries. ...

Gallery

Kaufmann Repetto

Milan, New York City

francesca kaufmann gallery opened in January 2000. Since then, the gallery has aimed to explore a diverse range of media, with a focus on video, site specific installation, and a special attention towards the works of female artists. After ten years in its historical location, the gallery opened in a new space in October 2010, under the name kaufmann repetto, to mark the partnership between Francesca Kaufmann and Chiara Repetto. In its new location, the gallery has been able to further develop its exhibition programming through a project space dedicated predominantly to younger artists, as well as a courtyard for large scale outdoor installations, which run parallel to the gallery’s main exhibition schedule. In 2013, the gallery inaugurated a new location in Chelsea, New York, with a parallel program to the gallery’s main space in Milan. In 2019 the New York location moved to Tribeca, expanding to a 3,000 sq ft exhibition space. The inaugural exhibition at the gallery’s new space in Tribeca was a solo show by Lily van der Stokker. ...
