Three fabulous exhibitions are coming to Agora Gallery this February. The shows will open on February 10, 2012 and continue until March 1, 2012. The opening reception will be on February 16, 2012 and as always art enthusiasts are warmly encouraged to attend, meet some of the artists, and enjoy the atmosphere and the works.
The Substance of Abstraction is full of visual verve and energy, giving the viewer the impression that the walls of the gallery have come to life and are engaging with their audience. Lively and skilfully created, these works both show and validate the care and technique which has been invested in their creation. Exploring every facet of our awareness, the artists bravely strike out for ground that is too often avoided, resulting in compelling artworks.
In Elemental Realms gallery visitors are given the chance to lose themselves in new, fascinating and enthralling worlds. While always maintaining a connection with the facts of human experience which ground our lives, the artists of this exhibit let their imaginations have free rein as they construct something wholly novel around the revelations granted by artistic vision. Using the communicative power of art, they invite their viewers to join them.
The artists whose works feature in Sensorial Perspectives present their unique viewpoints through intriguing, vibrant and thought-provoking art. Challenging the audience to fathom their meaning and to become part of the artworks by bringing their own ideas and memories to the process, these remarkable creations range in topic, medium and style. Yet they are united in their shared ability to move and fascinate those who come into contact with them.
