Shades of Cool

In 1948, Richard Pousette-Dart, a key figure of Abstract Expressionism, was already exploring the tension between light and shadow in his work. The exhibition “Shades of Cool” highlights a collection of ten fascinating paintings, each seeking to capture this subtle balance between warmth and coolness – a central principle for artists like Conrad Marca-Relli and Rafael Soriano. The event offers an exploration into the oeuvre of these major 20th-century figures, often unknown to the general public. The exhibition focuses on how these painters translated visually the nuances of color and emotion, ranging from geometric abstractions to more intuitive expressions. The event is free and provides a unique opportunity to appreciate the boldness and innovation of these artists. An exhibition dedicated to the exploration of the chromatic palette and its emotional implications.
