About the Item

Dionisios Fragias is a New York -based artist born on the Greek island of Kefalonia and raised in New York City. He is the protege of the artist Jeff Koons whose years-long mentorship, working very closely together, has instilled in the artist a sensitive approach to his art practice. Through his own works, Fragias examines human nature’s tendencies towards creation and destruction. His free-standing sculptures, “hybrid” paintings/wall-sculptures and other diverse-media works connect our past to the present. In his latest series, Emergency Inspiration, the artist expands on certain questions that are at the core of art-making: How do artists respond in times of uncertainty? How can we gain a better personal understanding of a crises old and new, real or fabricated throughout daily practices? Several of the new works come together in the current exhibition titled, The Landscape I Can’t Unsee, the artworks mine a mixture of imagery that is taken from historical archives and contemporary digital databases. Memes and familiar iconographies are re-drawn and stylized in a collective manner that invite’s one to contemplate certain prescient issues that we constantly face. Fragias has participated in numerous solo and group exhibitions throughout the United States, Greece, Switzerland, Belgium, etc. His artworks have been collected by major institutions including the Hearst collection in New York. His largest sculpture, Icarus Empires is permanently exhibited in the main lobby of the Hearst Tower.

'Bath of an Artist, ' by Tunde Darvay, Acrylic Painting on Canvas, 2014
By Tunde Darvay
Located in Oklahoma City, OK
This 32.75" x 61.75" acrylic on canvas painting by Romanian artist, Tunde Darvay, features a wood frame of the artists' making. The horizontal mystical landscape is brightly painted with predominant colors of reds, blues, and greens. Surrealistic figures and animals emerge from the landscape and float out into space through the painted frame. "It is a special piece because instead of painting on wood, as I usually do, here I am reaching back to a somewhat more traditional way of painting on canvas. It is a statement of aesthetic credo depicting an artist who having finished one of her paintings is going through a symbolic rebirth. She is going through a ritual purification by divesting herself of her old self and taking responsibility for her views, principles, and emotions as she is boldly facing a society that is very different from her. " - Tunde Darvay "Influenced by the unique rural landscapes of Transylvania, the place where I was born and have spent most of my life, my paintings emphasize the shadow-line between the organic and the inorganic. My aesthetic worldview is profoundly mythical: it depicts a world in which color breathes life into inanimate things in order to conjure up playful, suggestive associations along a broad spectrum of themes and forms. Houses have smiling or grinning doors, cheerful, winking, or teary windows, depending on their moody personalities. Chimneys protrude as if they were limbs. Trees hold hands and dance together, witnessed by the curious glance of birds, cats, and fish from behind the bushes...
