Laura Payne

who is a also a painter, has installation work on display with Sinéad Ludwig-Burgess at Okotoks Art Gallery through March 31. Of the work, Payne says she was influenced by “those subtle-but-vivid spectrums of colour in the cloudless sky at dawn or dusk, or the way that hot pink light in November hits the buildings in the city. What I guess I wanted to do is synthesize, artificially, this sort of feeling of witnessing an ephemeral light phenomenon in nature – I want to bottle it, put it in something.”

Kim Tschang-Yeul

For 2023’s ADAA The Art Show, Tina Kim Gallery presented a historical presentation highlighting two seminal Asian and Asian-American artists: sculptor Minoru Niizuma (b. 1930, Tokyo; d. 1998, New York) and painter Kim Tschang-Yeul (b. 1929, Pyongannamdo; d. 2021, Paris). When Kim moved to New York in 1965, Pop Art prevailed as the artistic lifeblood of the city. It was in New York that Kim began his earliest experiments into painting the bulbous abstract forms that would later lead to his signature style—the waterdrop.

Francesco Igory Deiana

newest, “Desire,” is on Display in Paris and Juxtapoz has words. Deiana’s works are inspired by and profoundly related to language, words, letters and the way they shape our perception and patterns of thinking. Their history, often charged with symbolism and hidden meanings, is deconstructed, appropriated and subtly woven in.

assume vivid astro focus

Casa Triângulo gallery, which celebrates 35 years of activity in August 2023, is delighted to present amarelo vento azul floral (as cores se acumulam em sua atmosfera tecendo luzes), the fifth solo exhibition by assume vivid astro focus at the gallery. Since 2001, when Eli Sudbrack and Christophe Hamaide-Pierson formed assume vivid astro focus, museums, galleries, and public spaces worldwide have been set aflame with the duo’s image-laden, neon-bright, Carnavalesque installations. Fusing drawing, sculpture, collage, video, music, and performance, assume vivid astro focus creates immersive spaces expressive of a lust for life and a belief in the “freedom to share/spread/absorb/assume/contaminate/inseminate/devour.” Abundant and irresistible, the pair’s work also poses challenges—to restrictions of speech and civil rights and to rigid classifications of identity.
