Matt Carone, Night Cyclists, acrylic on canvas, 2008,
60 x 48 in |
|
| Matt Carone. Autocycles Paintings and Works on Paper
Although the artist’s longtime concern with figurative abstraction has shifted toward more patterned subject matter in the new, subtly toned works, the influence of Chilean master Roberto Matta—a friend of Carone’s for 45 years—still shows.
Like the abstract expressionists, Carone seeks a spontaneous image as a consequence of a gesture...dictated more by the subconscious than by a rational, disciplined procedure.
These paintings seem to be an opening of a new door of automatism, Carone notes, adding: Their seed was planted by Matta.
Carone became interested in art as an adolescent during the summer of 1944, when he was asked to model for Hans Hoffman. His older brother, the well-known painter Nicolas Carone, was studying with Hoffman. Through his brother and years of involvement in art, Carone has had a close association with many of the era’s most famous artists and critics, including Conrad Marca-Relli, James Brooks, Paul Jenkins, Sandro Chia, Larry Rivers, Balcolm Greene, James Rosenquist, Duane Hanson, Thomas Hoving, Clement Greenberg and many others. |

Renato Meziat, Orchid and Crystal Bottle, Oil on Canvas, 2009. 43 x 32 in |

Renato Meziat. Recent Works
Renato Meziat was born in Rio de Janeiro in 1952. In 1978 and 1979, his work was chosen for display at the prestigious I Salao National de Artes Plasticas. Then in 1980, his solo exhibition graced the halls of the Galeria Ipanema in his native city.
Meziat ranks among the top notch realist contemporary painters, influenced by the works of Chilean master Claudio Bravo. Well cultured, attentive observer of the different "realities" that surrounded him, skilled in the handling of shades and colors, self-taught, who was born to pint, he searches in art the means to becoming a man of the 21st century.
Meziat shows us his work with remarkable simplicity and elegance. His painting are, many times, successful at making us smile. Never academic, his compositions are always well balanced and sophisticated.

Lawrence Savage Galleries
Presents
East Village Gallery
Leonardo Hidalgo in recent years has gained an abundant amount of notoriety across the globe. His latest collection is painting the town red among many other vibrant colors.
The Ecuadorian-born latest inspiration is recollecting his past, his childhood years, which he claims now gives him the ability to see life today through child-like eyes. Today, his paintings are a true reflection of that vision. He uses bright colors, and the result is a high energy series that can help you get back in touch with your youth “and I want everyone to feel like I do, like they can be in touch with their inner child again.” He says he wants people to feel just as alive and just as passionate about life as he does; he wants people who look at his artwork to feel that same fervor.
Also on exhibit in the main gallery is the internationally renowned Jamali and Shie Moreno’s artwork of individual expression

Permanent Exhibit of the Works of Carbonell and Mauro Arbiza Fernández
An important collection of maquettes, sculptures, bas-reliefs and monumental sculptures by Cuban Master Sculptor Manuel Carbonell. His commissioned work as the creator of two of Miami’s most important landmarks, “The Tequesta Family” at the Brickell Avenue Bridge and “El Centinela del Rio” at the entrance of the Miami River in Brickell Key, denotes his more classical and figurative style. The works exhibited at the Gallery are modern, where Carbonell searches for the essence of the form and the absence of detail while giving a sense of monumentality to his work. Three monumental 8-foot Carbonell sculptures are on exhibit at Art Midtown on Midtown Blvd. and NW 34th Street in cooperation with Daniel Azoulay Gallery.
Carbonell: “Maquettes to Monumentals” remains on permanent exhibit at Beaux Arts Gallery together with the paintings and sculptures of Carbonell disciple Mauro Arbiza |
