Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

The artwork features a minimalist, geometric composition composed of rectangular shapes in contrasting colors. The left panel consists of solid black, white, and deep purple hues, while the right panel incorporates a gradient of blue and pink tones, suggesting a atmospheric, celestial quality. The distinct use of clean lines, flat colors, and subtle gradients creates a sense of simplicity and visual balance. This work exemplifies the Minimalist art movement's emphasis on reduction of form and exploration of color, shape, and space as the primary means of artistic expression. The artist's intention may be to evoke a meditative, contemplative response from the viewer through the interplay of these essential visual elements. ...

Philippe Van Snick
B.1946, Belgian

Philippe Van Snick is one of the foremost contemporary Belgian artists. His work combines the heritage of modern abstract art and the conceptual enunciates of the seventies, delving into a field of speculations on the perception of the world and life. Even though Van Snick’s work has been repeatedly considered from the perspective of painting fundamentals, recent reviews of his oeuvre have shed light on his recurrent experimentations, straddling fields as distinct as conceptual photography, film, installation, artist’s books, or site-specific projects. Like a spiral, the work of Philippe Van Snick unfolds continually from the infinitesimal to that which transcends us. Encompassing not only mathematical strictness but also an experimentalism that embraces the element of chance in life, his artistic propositions are poetical and unconventional, at once dense and light-hearted, empathic and desiring of the world, silent and dynamic. ...

Brussels, São Paulo

Founded in São Paulo in 2011, Galeria Jaqueline Martins is a space for research, documentation and presentation of contemporary artistic production. It proposes collaborative curatorial strategies that foster dialogue between different generations and different cultural perspectives. One of its guiding principles is the encouragement of research-oriented conceptualist practices characterized by critical, even subversive, approaches. Since its inauguration, the gallery has developed a special program around the investigation of artistic productions carried out during the Brazilian military period – more specifically from the 1970s and 1980s. It promotes a historical revision of processes grounded on strong intellectual resistance, audacity and commitment to art and which transformed the artistic practice in the country, but nonetheless were neglected throughout the last decades. By integrating research and practice that confront the contemporary scene by means of its exhibition program, the gallery encourages the revival of the debate that conceives of artistic actions as contact zones for the exercise of aesthetic, social and political change. In 2020 the gallery opened its second exhibition space, in Brussels, aiming to expand our presence in Europe and to develop a multidisciplinary program that will foster connections between our artists and Brazilian art practices in an international context. ...
