Emiliano Aiello's work resounds with a raw intensity that distinguishes him in the contemporary art world, blending primal energy with expressive sophistication. His paintings, which feel like explosions of color and line, serve as windows into a deeply introspective and complex vision of the human psyche.

Art Review, Contemporary Art, Painting

Tatyana Bondarenko’s work stands as a vivid testament to the raw, uncontainable energy of abstract expressionism. Her paintings are intense explorations of emotion, emerging from a deeply personal journey of self-discovery and inner dialogue. Born in Russia, a place where cultural expectations often place value on emotional reserve, Tatyana's creative practice serves as a liberating counterpoint, allowing her to transcend these constraints through paint. Each piece becomes a release, a form of self-therapy that embraces and magnifies the subtleties of feeling, creating visual expressions that are as layered as they are honest.

Tom Bitt

Art Review, Contemporary Art, Painting

Born in Hradec Králové, Bitt's early artistic inclinations led him to study Artistic Woodworking in 1996. He initially channeled his creativity into wood sculptures and puppet-making, but this period of craft, while skilled, left him searching for deeper meaning. Woodworking, with its rigid structures and utilitarian demands, ultimately did not fulfill his desire for self-expression. His journey took a pivotal turn in 2020, when he abandoned the familiarity of traditional craft and embraced the liberating world of abstract oil painting. This shift marked not only a technical evolution but also a philosophical awakening.

Judith Dupree Beale's work embodies a fiercely authentic artistic spirit, pulsating with an internal logic that defies conventional categorization and instead invokes a deeply felt phenomenology of mark-making. Her approach to creating, expressed in her artist statement, emphasizes the primal thrill of initiating a piece. This commitment to spontaneity, to letting her marks breathe without constraint, makes her a significant voice in the landscape of contemporary art. Indeed, her pieces feel like physical manifestations of thought, moving dynamically across surfaces with an energy that feels both ancient and avant-garde.

In the contemporary art scene, Dominique Meunier stands as a figure whose works not only capture but probe the ephemeral and the transcendent, a journey rendered through his deeply atmospheric canvases. His recent works, each a contemplative blend of oil and ink, form an evocative series that engages viewers in meditations on existence, spirituality, and humanity’s connection to the world.

In the contemporary art scene, where the fusion of disparate disciplines has become a norm yet often lacks depth, Alexandra Dyalee emerges as a singular figure, bridging the gap between mathematical formalism and emotive human expression. This ambitious and talented artist intertwines the rational language of mathematics with the ephemeral and fragile nature of human relationships, producing a body of work that is as intellectually provocative as it is emotionally resonant.

In the experimental realm of contemporary art, few artists embrace the multifaceted complexity of media like Vasco Diogo.

His art challenges the observer to question what is real, what is performed, and what lies in the liminal space between life and art.

My artistic development was formed under the influence of both, eastern and western European, cultures. The pulse of life of culturally diverse metropolitan cities like Moscow and Vienna allowed me to get close to world art master pieces and international famous artwork.
My love for impressionism was born visiting numerous museums of the Russian capital, while studying I was often in the Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts attending regularly exhibitions. After moving to Vienna I was inspired later by Austrian artists as Gustav Klimt and focusing much in my own artwork on Austrian landscapes, churches and architecture.

My artistic journey is a reflection of my inner self, driven by a deep desire to create harmony and well-being.

I truly believe that each of us has a mission in life, and mine is to inspire harmony and love through my creations.

In the late 1980s, while visiting the Frans Hals Museum in the Netherlands, I stumbled upon a small exhibition of Japanese watercolors near the exit. In that moment, I knew this was exactly what I wanted to learn.
After that, I studied an old Japanese technique called ‘Njimi’ with a Chinese teacher for five years. In the early 1990s, I received a bursary to go to Japan."

Everything that we encounter, as we live with active senses, creates, in response, patterns of movements in the subtle energies of our body. There are the obvious ones, the emotions that we recognize and that have been given names in our culture, like sadness, worry, joy, etc., and there are many more, to which we have not given names. That’s where it starts to be interesting for me. This is where I go with my art.

When I begin a work, I usually establish what it's about;- i.e the basics of line and form are blocked in, sometimes over a monocoat of colour, or if I want a really pure light colour to be present in the finished work I will apply this directly on to a white base. As the work progresses I often lose control and direction in some parts and although this can be difficult to work through and resolve, it is where the creativity sets in and the original vision may evolve. When I am in 'the zone' I am not making conscious decisions, I just seem to know what to do.

My vision can sometimes take an abstract quality, playing on the illusion of two dimensions and highlighting the interplay of light on surface textures. These elements combine to create a visual language, where perspective ambiguity and the fluidity of light and colour blend, inviting the spectator into another visual dimension that is abstract, to look deeper into elements of our world and question our relationship and co-existence with it.
