Our Artists
Pablo Armesto
-
Born in Switzerland in 1970, Pablo Armesto frames his work within the context that goes from geometric abstraction to the most contemporary and experimental sculpture with all that this entails in relation to the study of the object in its three dimensions, its relationship with space and experimentation with different materials, such as LEDs, neons, cathodes and fiber optic, combined with wood and lacquered metals.
Since 2011 he has been part of the Marlborough Gallery with whom he has participated in international fairs such as Art Geneve and ARCO, as well as numerous individual and collective exhibitions.

Bosco Sodi
-
Born in Mexico City in 1970, Bosco Sodi is known for his richly textured, vividly colored large-scale paintings. Sodi has discovered an emotive power within the essential crudeness of the materials that he uses to execute his paintings. Focusing on material exploration, the creative gesture, and the spiritual connection between the artist and his work, Sodi seeks to transcend conceptual barriers.
Sodi leaves many of his paintings untitled, with the intention of removing any predisposition or connection beyond the work’s immediate existence. Sodi’s influences range from l’art informel, looking to artists such as Antoni Tàpies and Jean Dubuffet, to master colorists such as Willem de Kooning, Mark Rothko, and the bright hues of his native heritage.

Italian, b. 1957, Taormina, Italy.
From the ‘80s, after a brief conceptual experience, he totally devoted himself to painting carrying on an original and solitary research on the metamorphism of matter, on the purity of color and on the energy of light.
This is how "Eden" are born: medium and large sized paintings where abrasions, cracks, sedimentations and cascades of pure colors offer to the viewer abstract landscapes untouched like on the first day of creation.

Carlos Rolón
-
Carlos Rolón (born 1970), also known professionally under the pseudonym Dzine, is an American contemporary visual artist of Puerto Rican descent.
Born to a Puerto-Rican family, Rolón’s background allows the artist to explore personal ideas which directly deal with questions of inclusion, aspiration and cultural identity.
Often connecting childhood memories, the artist bore witness to the ways in which households have adapted to new American middle-class lifestyles with homes, walls and furniture adorned with ephemera of color, texture, patterns and items brought into the home to create a sense of longing. It is from here Rolón takes inspiration to produce a hybrid language of exuberant flora paintings.

Collura joined the artists around the "Il Fante di Spade" Gallery in the mid-'70s. In 1974, he explored figuration and the female form in the "Inners/Outers" series. Between 1978 and 1979, he critically revisited the Déco period with the "Controliberty" series, blending aesthetics with an ironic reformulation influenced by theatre. From the 1980s, Collura embraced metaphysics and surrealism, contributing to the postmodern art scene. Notable works include the "Confini" cycle (1980/1998), expanding the borders of imagination.

Jing Wu
-
Jing Wu is of Chinese origin but born in the United States. He paints in the style of expressive abstractionism, exploring subjects, such as the Universe of Creation. His paintings are meditative to watch and can hardly be appreciated through pictures, due to their unique otherworldly textures. A very skilled colorist, Jing Wu creates harmony from the chaos of bright color spots. Due to the variety of color schemes and sizes, Jing Wu's artworks can naturally fit into almost any interior design.
This serie of paintings was presented at the exhibitions in Palm Beach, Paris, Brussels and New York.
