John Kalymnios Drawings and Watercolor Paintings

Australian, b. 1960

John Kalymnios was born in Wollongong, Australia in 1960, he currently lives and works in New York. His work is considered an example of postmodern internationalism art for the materials he uses are often linked to synthetics or high technology. Kalymnios is principally known for his kinetic sculptures, which create interesting visual and spatial manipulations. The works become sensory experiences, in which he uses low-tech mechanics, sculpture, video and photography to toy with our perceptions. Kalymnios draws from nature: spirals whirl, butterflies in motion captivate and illuminated cloudscapes create a hypnotic sense of space. He has exhibited in many galleries and museums from the Caren Golden Fine Art gallery to the Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art.
