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.

Squares 16- abstract bright color red purple dominant ink drawing on paper
By Dana Piazza
Located in New York, NY
Dana Piazza's creates abstract colorful drawings, full of the illusion of depth, movement, and three-dimensionality. His highly obsessive ink drawings on paper are built upon algorithms, a set of instructions that details how he will draw each series. Different algorithms and geometric patterns result in multiple drawing series that appear divergent but all of Piazza’s work is focused on explorations of chance, discovery and time. Unintentional changes in the mark are inevitable and create distorted and moving images that almost appear as 3D renderings. Dana Piazza received a BFA Magna Cum Laude from the School of Art+Design at Purchase College in 2010. He lives and works in Massachusetts. Item description Square 16...
