Art from Around the World: Matrix of the Mind, The Dexterity of Form and The Rhythm of Color February 24, 2009

NEW YORK, NY – The Agora Gallery (530 West 25th Street, Chelsea, New York, NY, 10001) is pleased to present Fine Art from Around the World: Matrix of the Mind, The Dexterity of Form and The Rhythm of Color. Scheduled to run from February 24, 2009 through March 17, 2009 (Reception: March 5, 6 to 8pm), the latest exhibition from Chelsea’s Agora Gallery brings together a stunning array of talented artists from around the globe. Modern and yet timeless, Matrix of the Mind is a survey of talented contemporary Japanese artists. With their appreciation for the natural world and the spiritual mind, these works will captivate the soul with their subtle philosophies and passionate beauty. The Dexterity of Form offers a new understanding of modern social and human issues through art. A balancing act between still-lifes and a perspective of urban life succeeds in capturing a veneration of nature in contrast with a preoccupying social climate. In The Rhythm of Color, extraordinary portrayals of figures and landscapes all find their way into this dynamic, refreshing and uncompromising collection. From simple planes expressing the pure, clean beauty of countryside to a collision of colors that trigger raw feelings of passion and desire, the use of rich color and texture evoke the rhythms of natural forces and emotions, bridging the gap between figure and landscape.
