The multiple layers of this aluminum sculpture by Cameroonian artist Boris Nzebo create an impression of the psychology of urban experience. Its neon tones create a greater sense of depth, drawing attention to the detailed patterning of the many cut-out forms that form this mindscape. This piece balances attention-grabbing freshness with a nuanced reflection of the human experience.

Nan Goldin’s The Crowd, Paternò captures the dense human flux and warmth of a seemingly distant pre-covid memory. The blurred figures form a wave in motion, bringing me into their space, feeling the vibrancy and movement of this moment.

JuanCarlos is a conceptual abstract artist who frequently touches on the subject of pollution and the preservation of our planet, visually inspiring viewers through the canvas. On one hand, Autumn Ghost Town represents the artist’s memories walking through down Central Park West in New York, while the abstractions in the sky warn of things to come if we don’t change the way we are treating the earth. The work is Flor’s “Abstract Photo Reality” series which imaginatively combines realism with abstraction.

Canadian artist Barbara Astman has received international recognition over the last four decades for her photo-based works. Her works are included in many important collections. Retiring this year as one of Ontario College of Art and Design University’s leading professors, Astman started her own journey there studying sculpture. She often appears in her own works over the years, and much of her recent practice focuses on traces of self-representation, portraying herself through the socio-political progressive lens of femininity. “The Domestic Warrior” series takes a unique look at a daily domestic activity. These organic-looking forms are actually made from lint from the dryer and in her process alters what is normally considered domestic drudgery – the laundry – into a domestic glory. Once Astman began the process of creating the pieces, the work then evolved into a exploration of her family. The success of this series lies in the open interpretation and exploration of the audience’s knowledge and perspective, which often draws delightful conclusions.

Hiroshi Furuyoshi’s ultra-realistic paintings are inspired by the great masters as well as his childhood spent in his parents’ antiques shop. Unsurprisingly his paintings often lush backgrounds so realistic that you almost want to reach out for the objects inside.

Iosilzon’s latest body of work tells a new story in an airy and whimsical setting. This is an appropriate chapter following her 2019 exhibition which was grounded on an earthly paradise. When Day Passes and Moon Appears, can be considered a titular vignette of the artist’s lore. The clouds, translucent fabrics, and iconic figures are all present, further grounding the escapism and serenity apparent in the collection of paintings that even expands into sculptural elements of glazed earthenware.

René Roeser, Surreal Still Life (2018) Art-Management

Luxembourg-based artist René Roeser follows in the footsteps of the Surrealists by taking everyday objects and scenes and making them strange and unsettling, but his modern photographic techniques mean his work fits perfectly in the 21st Century.
