About the Item
In Plusch’s "Room" series, we see the impression of a human figure against a background composed of imagery suggesting the assembly of an ordinary room. The treatment of the background is sharp in its focus, but mechanistically flat. The figure however, is rendered in a highly abstract manner which emphasizes movement. The juxtaposition between figure and background underscores a sense of transience between people and the environments they inhabit.
Ivan Plusch, born in 1981, is a young Russian artist on the rise and is part of the Nepokorionnye Group. He is based in St. Petersburg and has studied in various art schools, such as the State Academy of Art and Design, the Roerich Art School and the PRO ARTE Institute. Ivan is among a generation of artists who were still children at the time of the fall of the USSR. He was marked by the consequent sudden sociological and economic changes in his country in the early 90s. His work is heavily influenced by the signs of these changes, from the freedom of speech, hard fought and regained with difficulties by the people and by their collective relationship with society, be it under the sign of alienation or of liberation. However, the work of Plusch is more involved than simply representing his sociological observations. He reinterprets the history of art, reinterprets the norms of social realism, particularly those of monumental sculpture, and integrates them into his paintings. Ivan Plusch is a complete artist delivering work that is part of the trends of thought of Post-Soviet art. Playing with the image of a happy future, from elements of the former communist regime, Plusch questions, on a larger scale, the relationship of humans with their environment.
Ivan Plusch has been exhibited worldwide, including in Hungary, Italy, France, England, Montenegro, the Netherlands, the United States and Germany. Museums that his work has exhibited at include the Budapest History Museum, Budapest, Hungary; Anikushin Museum, St. Petersburg, Russia; Museum of Moscow, Moscow, Russia; The Russian Museum, St. Petersburg, Russia. His works are in the collections of Fondazione la Triennale Di Milano, Italy; Hermitage Museum, Russia; Kunst Im Rohnerhaus, Austria; Museum of Luther, Russia; Moscow Museum of Modern Art, Russia; National Center of Contemporary Art, Russia; Russian Museum, Russia. Plusch’s works are in such prestigious private and public collections as the Prince of Spain and The Corning Museum of Glass in the United States.

- Carmelo Niño Celebrando a Kiefer I, 2021, 200 x 126 cm, 78.7 x 49.6 in.By Carmelo NiñoLocated in Miami, FLCarmelo Niño Celebrando a Kiefer I, 2021 Acrylic on canvas 200 x 126 cm 78.7 x 49.6 in. The work is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity signed by the artist. Carmelo Niño, a Venezuelan artist originally from Maracaibo, Zulia State, an oil-producing region of Venezuela, is today one of the most outstanding painters in the plastic arts landscape in the country. Many years have passed since his birth in 1951 to the present, when he inaugurates this August 2022, a major exhibition at the Ascaso Gallery in Miami, with paintings from different dates resulting from the permanent and daily work of reflection, physical and intellectual, that he has always pursued in his creative life. Without neglecting a single moment of day-to-day life to be in front of the medium-sized canvas on the easel or of larger canvas hanging on a wall, he works in his large studio in the area of El Junco, outside the capital city of Caracas, surrounded by lush green vegetation, with a wonderful climate of pleasant temperature and poetic mist that invites to the reverie and glorification of his life as a painter. From a very early age Niño and his family discovered his vocation for drawing, a discipline in which he showed a special disposition and talent. From this moment on he dedicates his life to art, to the practice of painting, starting from a fantastic and strange world of fantasy, close to surrealism, unfailingly influenced by the circus of fantasy owned by his mother and a musician father. These circumstances will shape the artist's life. His traces and influences from the beginning will be present in his creative work, especially through the memories of the infinite curiosity to look, touch and be enraptured by the strange furniture and objects from his mother's circus that he knew were deposited in a room of the house. This universe of fantasy will leave an indelible mark on his subconscious and will serve as the thematic and artistic support for all his work. In an interview conducted by the critic Roberto Montero Castro in 1977, Carmelo Niño states, "the symbols of my painting come from the everyday life". His life has been one of continuous work and effort. At the age of fifteen he enrolled in the School of Arts of Maracaibo, graduated three years later, 1966, and immediately, with a scholarship, he travelled to Spain, took a few courses at the San Fernando Academy in Madrid, strengthened his preparation in art workshops and in frequent visits to the big museums of this European capital. With a sensitive gaze he penetrates the mysteries of masterpieces of the great artists who have made the universal history of art. His life as a painter has been intense, of intense study, preparation and work. With much composure and modesty he talks about his life and his artistic production, recognized not only in Venezuela, but also internationally. His participation in exhibitions began in 1969 and as early as 1970 he held his first individual exhibition at the Fine Arts Center of Maracaibo. From these dates onwards successes started to come, with the participation in collective and individual exhibitions, in Venezuela and abroad, as well as the awards from 1971, when he won the Scholarship Award at the First National Salon of Young Artists in Maracay, Aragua State; in 1972 he was awarded the Second Prize at the Regional Salon of Maracaibo. 1975 is the year of awards, he received the First Prize at the IV Salon of Young Artists in Caracas; the Aurelio Rodriguez Award at the IV Avellan Salon in Caracas and the First Prize at the Salon of Young Zulian Artists in Maracaibo; he also participated in the group exhibition of History of Painting in Venezuela, at Casa de Las Americas, Havana, Cuba; and in 1976 he was invited by Jose Gomez Sicre to take part in the exhibition of Venezuelan painting...Category
