Featured Works:

Ariane Hafizi: Untitled - Id 185, c. 2001-2003. Acrylic on heavyweight acid-free paper, 51 x 55.6 inches (130 x 141 cm)

"Untitled" by Ariane Hafizi is an abstract painting featuring discernible eye-like circular forms and colors reminiscent of Vassily Kandinsky's abstract compositions. The color palette uses thick, ink-like black, which gives the painting great potency and fresh energy. 

Liliana Rossini:  Fantasticamente. 47.2 x 39.4 inches (120 x 100 cm)

"Fantasticamente" by Liliana Rossini is a symbolic and expressionistic painting of a running horse with golden hair. The horse conveys the joy of freedom through its posture and its wild run.

Eugenio Merino: Always Kim, 2014. Mixed media, 85 x 25 x 25 inches (215.9 × 63.5 × 63.5 cm).

"Always Kim" is a sculpture depicting the cryogenic preservation of a lifeless dictator for future resuscitation. The dictator is shown inside a Coca-Cola or Pepsi-themed display case, appearing either embraced by or defeated by the capitalism that has driven the economies of democratic countries.  

Ellen de Meijer: Lunch Break, 2025. Oil on canvas, 43 x 71 inch (110 x 180cm).

In Lunchbreak, Ellen de Meijer presents a businessman at a public swimming pool during a moment of leisure — conspicuously armed in an otherwise benign setting. The presence of a firearm within this environment of casual recreation destabilizes the scene, transforming an ordinary pause in the workday into a study of latent threat.
