| Vistas: Landscapes Interpreted. Wulf Barsch. Arless Day. Josephine Haden. Kyle. Richard Lytle. John Torina.
From the highly imaginative to American impressionist, “Vistas: Landscapes Interpreted” offers a half-dozen widely varied artistic statements about one of art’s most common genres. Paintings of Wulf Barsch have been interpreted as “cosmic imagery” because his subject matter often combines geometrical, intellectual, and mystical elements with Egyptian and Islamic references.
Juxtaposing scenes and elements from different locations,Arless Day blends painting with environmental collages to create warmly inviting scenarios. Author and critic Donald Kuspit says that the paintings of Josephine Haden “stand on the threshold of entropy, a place where disorder is neither threatening nor disarming, but instead, a thing of beauty.” Kyle focuses his paintings, assemblage and installations on the threats to Florida’s environment.
The biomorphic, surrealist paintings of Richard Lytle are in such public collections as the Museum of Modern Art, the National Museum of Art, and the Minneapolis Institute of Art. John Torina’s American Impressionist works are painted outdoors during extended camping trips from the Florida Keys to New Zealand. |

Jorge Cavelier. Rivers “The multiple interpretations of our life experience on earth can simply be referred to the contemplation of rivers; either if you are in the water or about the riverbank, the perception is as the manifestation of life itself. Rivers reflect light; all colors and forms live in their water mirrors. Rivers own sound, from whispers in the fountainhead to thundering waterfalls, from soft music in fast shivering upon shallow riverbeds to silence in the slow flow of deep waters. Rivers vibrate continuously, from the first dewdrop fall to the yielding with the ocean. The river completes a journey incessantly. In this journey, the soft caress of mother Earth to the newborn river happens in a silent powerful way. Everything around the pristine water seems to glow with purity and freshness; innocence is beheld in every drop. As tributaries merge, sounds of all nature sums in vibratory joy to the flow, bringing memories and scents of different lands and forests, speaking of soft lichens and steppe rocks from every other birthplace. Painting each work in this exhibition has been part of the voyage, finding at each composition a reason to contemplate life from the stream of time.” Jorge Cavelier

FELOX works features the ensemble of everyday use materials such as cardboard, stones and wood. These elements are put in a total different background that what the elements are usually associated with. This artistic current is called "Ready Made".

Maikel Martinez brings us one of his landscapes "El Silencio" (2009). Martinez takes artistic genre of landscapes and brings us closer to the painting itself. By using soft strokes and simple elements he is able to convey the feelings of calmness and peacefulness to the viewer.His simple works suggest a powerful visual impact and makes us think that we are witnessing an artist who is changing the way he looks and feels the landscape getting closer to different ideas and concepts. Martinez was born in Pinar del Rio, Cuba in 1977.

Until March 2010 Milton Becerra. Ale’Ya. (libro del principio de las verdades escritas)"Milton Becerra has an original, distinctive and personal language, having a truly surprising power of renewal and revival: consistent with his artistic conviction, his own manner of assuming artistic creation.
The works gathered in this exhibition share this exceptional condition. Reference to myths of Wayúu ethnicity, the elements of natural landscape and the manifestation of a geometric rationalism coexist in them without conflict, articulated under the principles of harmony and proportion.
Milton Becerra is probably the most fruitful and prolific Venezuelan plastic artist of his generation. His vast production comprises practically all the artistic means and procedures used in worldwide contemporary plastic research.
His rock assemblies on a plane surface, observed through a scheme of dense knots, carried out by means of the adaptation of a metric and constructivist disposition, change these works into a sort of homage to kinetics, conceived by the use of icons and gestures belonging to his own artistic discourse, as are the rocks, ropes and knots. Indeed, in these works – as in all of Becerra’s artistic works – the common denominator seems to be the precise domain of space and its expression in aesthetic, poetic and symbolic terms. Adolfo Wilson.
