About the Item

Shell, 2015 Oil and Mixed media on panel 19 x 27 cm Nikos Kanarelis was born in Athens, Greece in 1975 where he now lives and works. Βetween 1999 and 2004 he studied at the painting department of the Athens School of Fine Arts. In 2010 he graduated from the Masters programme of the Athens School of Fine Arts. He has had three solo shows at Loraini Alimantiri Gazonrouge gallery Déjà vu, 2005 / The Public gets what the public wants, 2009/ elika gallery, quite life, 2014, and has participated in numerous group exhibitions both in Greece and abroad. A Quiet Life. Kanarelis presents a journey towards the truth, a truth bound to a genuine subjective point of view of the familiar and the object. Executed in pencil, and with great emphasis placed on detailed representation, the still lives seem real and tangible, while at the same time they are deeply personal and idiosyncratic. Juxtaposed to one another they resemble cropped film noir stills. Their dramatic quality is partly achieved through the use of chiaroscuro, reliant on light sources that the artist himself has set up in his living space.
