The band became an obsession for Bevilacqua, so much so that the painting grew along with his focus, consuming his attention and mirroring his state of mind. Each song, each lyric began taking on particular significance for Bevilacqua, who found many parallels to his own life and reflected his outlook on his surroundings. As rich as one would expect a yearlong work to be, the painting is also nuanced, with areas of sharpness and clarity layered upon washes of color and moody hues.
Juxtaposed against this singular outpouring, other new works take a different approach, becoming extremely minimal and hauntingly symbolic, drained of color or highly textured.

Hannah Collins London, lives and works between London and Barcelona. At the forefront of new media internationally since the s, Simon writes his own computer code, basing it on the understanding that simple rules, activated and displayed on a screen, create more images than anyone can ever see in their lifetime. Inspired by the paintings and theories of European Modernists such as Joseph Albers, Paul Klee and Piet Mondrian, he creates imagery that is constantly evolving yet never repeating.
To make his art, Simon begins by sketching. For the past 12 years, he has engaged in a daily practice that he calls Divination Drawings. These serve as inspiration and source material for the production of finished works. Composed in pencil or gouache, Simon allows his unconscious thoughts and emotions to guide his mark making. He then studies them to discern which persistent marks or symbols can best be translated into the language of code.
For Simon, rules can be liberating. The final results are displayed on walls as objects mounted in laser-cut plastic or Formica, encased in elaborate cabinets, or simply projected.

Javier Lopez & Fer Frances - News
October 6 - January 13 Alex Katz born Brooklyn, New York, is one of the most important and respected living American artists with a career that spans over six decades. Influenced as much by style, film, poetry and music as by art history, Katz works in the tradition of European and American artists like Eduard Manet, Henri Matisse and Edward Hopper.
He began exhibiting in the s, when Abstract Expressionism was the dominant movement in American art led by figures such as Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko and Willem de Kooning. Katz admired these artists but rather than follow in their wake, he instead developed a contemporary figurative language combining the enlarged scale of American abstract painting with the bright colours and graphic style of advertising billboards. Today Alex Katz remains a prolific painter and an influential and important figure for generations of artists.

These pirates are masked in headgear, smoking cigarettes, having tea at sunset. They bear hand-me-down AKs and RPGs, the looping shapes of their bullet belts and gun straps echoing s graffiti letterforms. These works address David and Goliath themes of survival, justice, ingenuity, ownership, and difference. The New York version of the work is equally dense with information. A clutter of color, slogans, fantasies, and affiliations is all barely contained, ready to spill out of this eat, sleep, and breathe environment. The piece is a celebration of early influences and an exercise of traditions that remain relevant, holding up better than ever.
According to James, both vandals and pirates step over invisible boundaries put in place by faceless power structures every day. Both also anonymously make claims to space or to cargo , their deeds forcing society to confront the undeniable complexity of right and wrong. The fact that James is able to do this with a generous amount of humor is his unique ability.
