"Living Gods" by Reinar Foreman
The Galerie de Buci unveils its new exhibition "Living Gods", a selection of paintings by the Icelandic artist, Reinar Foreman. For the "Living Gods" Reinar was inspired by Antiquity.
The painter seeks to reinterpret mythology by updating them. Halfway between figurative art and abstraction , he shows the powerful, sometimes severe nature of human emotions with simplified but vibrant shapes and colors.
The artists paintings establish a direct link between ancient myths and legends, and the daily passions that define the human condition, a true reflection on the universal nature of emotions through ages and limits.
Our custom made canvases, stretched backwards to achieve the roughest textures desired by the Artist, bare backgrounds juxtaposed with bursts of color create unique textures and leave strong impressions, while color combinations are based on unusual contrasts- green and pink, yellow and brown.
