About the Item
"El Universo Conspire", Edition 9/20, is a work by Alberto Sanchez. It depicts an urban city space with colors and birds and is mounted on wood. 60 x 60 x 5 cm.
ALBERTO SANCHEZ, born 1971 in Spain, is a photographer and multi-media artist based between Byron Bay, Australia and Madrid, Spain. He prints, hacks and re-invents his own photographs using a unique hand-colouring technique, creating a hybrid reality of physical and imagined worlds where photographic documentary is meshed with improbable landscapes, creating his own form of magic realism. Sánchez rediscovers the world through his viewfinder and re-visions that experience through his textured layering and evocative palette. His body of work explores the notions of urban expansionism, capitalism and how individuals define themselves in an increasingly overloaded sensorial environment. Represented by Decorazon Gallery (USA/ London) and Retrospect Galleries in Australia, Alberto has exhibited extensively at Art Fairs in Europe, USA, South America, and throughout Asia where a significant portion of his work is photographed. Alberto has been gaining recognition from both institutions and commercial galleries around the world. His work has appeared in many press articles and publications. Awards include: Finalist in the Bowness Photography Prize (2013), Finalist in the Wilson Visual Arts Award (2013), Semi-finalist Doug Moran Portrait Prize (2011), finalist Prometheus Visual Arts Award (2011), Australian Institute of Photography Runner-Up QLD Portrait Photographer of the Year (2010), Highly Commended Olive Cotton Award (2009), People’s Choice and Finalist at HeadOn Alternative Portrait Awards (2009) a finalist in the Olive Cotton Award (2008) as well as 15 awards from the Australian Institute of Professional Photography (2007-2009).

Alberto Sanchez
ALBERTO SANCHEZ Born 1971, Spain Spanish / Australian Alberto Sánchez is a photographer and multimedia artist based between Byron Bay, Australia, and Asturias, Spain. Sánchez reinvents his own photographs using a unique hand colouring technique, creating his own form of magic realism where photographic documentary is meshed with improbable landscapes. Sanchez’ work is simultaneously an inquiry into the nature and essence of how we perceive the world we live in. His aim is to challenge our perception in order to question our relationship with space and time. By using expressive colours and dynamic brush strokes, he transforms the obvious and invites us into his parallel landscapes. His body of work explores the notions of our human environment, urban expansionism and how individuals define themselves in an overloaded sensorial landscape. Artist Statement: "My journey into art has been shaped by a winding path. I studied photography at high school, then went on to learn music performance and composition at Ballyfermot College, Ireland before immersing myself in both visual and performing arts. Alongside my work as a mixed media artist, my background in music and performance, continues to influence my creative process. For years, I balanced design, photography, and music, always exploring new ways to merge disciplines. Now, as a full-time artist, I focus on developing my unique voice—blending photography, abstract expressionism, and mixed media. My work is a continuous exploration, pushing creative boundaries while staying rooted in curiosity and experimentation."

Mixed Media Painting by Steven Colucci
By Jackson Pollock
Located in New York City, NY
Steven Colucci’s iconoclastic approach to performance and the visual arts
have not only long blurred the boundaries between these disciplines, but have
challenged its most basic assumptions. The title of this show references a
most rudimentary dance move --the plié --and our assumptions of what to
expect in relation to this. Also the suggestion that we can simply press a
button and a preconceived outcome will be courteously delivered --a form of
prefabricated belief in itself. Steven Colucci’s artwork turns such basic
assumptions on their heads. Finding early inspiration in the New York school
of abstract expressionists such as Jackson Pollock with his action painting,
and then further by his professor --a then young Vito Acconci while studying
at the School of Visual Arts, Steven Colucci went from exploring the raw
existentialist experimentation of New York’s early painting and performance
scenes, to investigating the other end of the spectrum --the rigorously
measured and controlled disciplines of pantomime and ballet; studying in
Paris under the tutelage of world-famous Marcelle Marceau, and engaging
with the concepts of dramatic movement pioneer and intellectual Etienne
Decroux. Colucci has explained the difference between the extremes of
pantomime and dance as being that pantomime forces movement via an
internal capacity --movement directed inward to the core of one’s self --a
source requiring extreme mental and physical control. Dance by contrast is
an external expression; likewise requiring great precision, although instead
an extension of self or sentiment that projects outwardly. While such
historical ‘movement’ disciplines serve as foundation blocks for Steven’s
artistic explorations, it is the realm in between that he is best known for his
contributions --an experimental movement and performance art that
simultaneously honors, yet defiantly refutes tradition; rejecting a
compartmentalization regarding art and movement, yet incorporating its
elements into his own brand of experimental pastiche. Colucci’s performance
works manifest as eerily candy-coated and familiar, yet incorporate
unexpected jags of the uncanny throughout, exploiting a sort of coulrophobia
in the viewer; an exploration of a cumulative artifice that binds human
nature against its darker tendencies; highlighting traditions of artifice itself -
the fabricated systemologies that necessitate compartmentalization in the
first place.
It is evident in Steven Colucci’s paintings that he has established a uniquely
distinctive pictorial vocabulary; a strong allusion to --or moreso an extension
of --his performance works. Colucci’s paintings depict a sort of kinetic
spectrum, or as he refers to them “a technical expression of physicality and
movement”. Whereas the French performance and visual artist Yves Klein
used the human body as a “paint brush” to demarcate his paintings and
thereby signify a residue of performance, Colucci’s utilization of nonsensical
numbers and number sequences taken from dance scores, as well as heat-
induced image abstraction depicting traces of movement likewise inform his
vocabulary. In the strand of the choreographed, yet incorporating moments of
chance, Colucci’s paintings represent an over arching structure; a rhythm of
being and state, yet detail erratic moments --moments that denote a certain
frailty --the edge of human stamina. Colucci’s paintings dually represent a
form of gestural abstraction --and also the reverse of this --a unique
anthropomorphization of varying states of movement – that sometimes
present as a temperature induced color field, at others are juxtapositions of
movement and depictions of physical gestural images themselves. Colucci’s
use of vernacular and found materials such as cardboard evoke his mastery of
set design, and also reference a sort of collective experience of urbanity and
the ephemeral. Such contradictions seem to permeate not only Steven
Colucci’s artwork, but also are reflected in his person – one who grew up in
New York’s Bronx during a zeitgeist moment in visual and performing arts in
the 1960s – one who shifts with ease from happenings and experiments in
New York City, to his meticulously choreographed megaproductions at
Lincoln Center or starring in the Paris ballet...
