Thirty Pieces of Sun

Alexander Tinei presents ‘Thirty Pieces of Sun’, a solo exhibition marking his arrival at Marc Straus Gallery. The body of work, composed of vibrant and luminous paintings, explores the artist’s fascination with light and the sensory experience of color. Created between May and July 2026, these canvases testify to an artistic evolution toward a celebratory and expressive aesthetic. Tinei, known for portraits that flourish through hesitation, presents here a series of previously unseen works. This exhibition is a key moment in the artist’s career, and Marc Straus Gallery continues its commitment to rediscovering international talent. The exhibition is free and fits within the gallery’s approach to valuing artists, including less-known names. A unique opportunity to discover innovative and colorful work.
