Alejandro Corujeira's New York Debut

Internationally acclaimed Argentine painter, Alejandro Corujeira, will debut his first New York show at Marlborough Gallery. The artist, who now lives in Madrid, creates abstract works that mix curvy lines, subdued colors, and layers of transparency. His paintings radiate a calming - almost trance like - effect on those who are drawn to the soothing nature of his creations.

The artist's use of earth tones and pale blue and green hues gives many of Corujeira's paintings in his new exhibit a unique essence, which is precisely what the artist strives for. As he states in a recent article from Art Daily,

“In this painting ["El comienzo" or The Beginning ... ] there is a sinuous plane, organic in nature, which is left suspended over the surface; with the colored lines, energies of tinted light, causing it to palpitate permanently in a respiratory rhythm.” "Melodías inventadas" (Invented Melodies) ... is invested with a similar vibrating energy. Here graphite circles move like cells over the surface of the painting, seemingly attempting to settle upon pale red and green lines and producing, in the artist’s words, a continual movement like an audible impression.

Check out Corujeira's first NY solo show - which promises to be a welcoming and calming display - from November 19th until December 19th.
