All in Contemporary Art

Mario Molins

Mario Molins

ContemporaryArtCurator
Art Review, Contemporary Art, Sculpture

In situating Mario Molins within the contemporary art scene, we see his singularity: a sculptor who resists spectacle to insist on ceremony, who resists acceleration to insist on continuity, who resists oblivion to insist on memory. His conviction that sculpture can still be spiritual is translated into forms that privilege wound over perfection, memory over erasure, resilience over fragility. The originality of his practice lies in its refusal of superficiality, insisting instead on the deeper rhythm of ritual and the dialogue with nature.

Tatyana Palchuk

ContemporaryArtCurator
Art Review, Contemporary Art, Painting

Tatyana Palchuk stands today as one of the most significant European Baltic painters of her generation. Her career, built on discipline, independence, and vision, has produced works of extraordinary technical mastery and philosophical depth. Whether depicting the warmth of family, the grandeur of the sea, the play of musicians, or the liveliness of still life, she has given us images that will endure. In her canvases, one feels the echo of Renaissance balance, the stillness of Vermeer, and the poetry of Chagall, but above all, one feels the unmistakable presence of her own voice: clear, warm, and profoundly human.

Art Review, Contemporary Art, Painting

In Bech’s portraits, we see more than individuals. We see humanity itself, fractured and whole, fragile and enduring, luminous and shadowed. We see the persistence of the human face as the mirror of history and the vessel of meaning. And in seeing, we are reminded that art’s highest purpose is not only to represent but to reveal.

Carol Wates

Carol Wates

ContemporaryArtCurator
Art Review, Contemporary Art, Painting

It is perhaps not an exaggeration to say that Carol Wates’s art is a turning point in the history of drawing. She demonstrates that the discipline can survive the transition from paper to pixel without loss but with gain, gain in speed, in luminosity, in immediacy. Her art is not merely a continuation of drawing but its renewal. In this, she stands as one of the most important visual artists of her generation, ensuring that drawing, that most ancient of practices, continues to live in the present tense.

Patrick Egger

ContemporaryArtCurator
Art Review, Contemporary Art, Painting

Patrick Egger is, quite simply, one of the most important painters of our time. His works, whether of the Drus, the Cervin, the Creux du Van, or the quiet marshlands of autumn, extend a lineage that stretches from Friedrich to Turner to the Barbizon school, while remaining unmistakably contemporary. They are acts of devotion to nature, to perception, and to the possibility of emotion in painting.

IRIS Fluidism

IRIS Fluidism

ContemporaryArtCurator
Art Review, Contemporary Art, Painting

IRIS, the Romanian born and Austrian based artist, has created such a language. Her invention of Fluidism is not merely a stylistic innovation but a profound philosophical system, a visual and spiritual poetics that binds the act of art making to the elemental principle of water. Her works, resplendent with the seven colors of the rainbow and their infinite interminglings, do not simply depict bodies, animals, landscapes, or faces, they articulate the very liquidity of existence.

Margaretha Gubernale

Margaretha Gubernale

ContemporaryArtCurator
Art Review, Contemporary Art, Painting

Margaretha Gubernale has pursued, with unwavering determination, an artistic vision that resists compromise. Born in Zug, Switzerland, in 1941, Gubernale has forged a path that not only defends the figurative imagination but also elevates it into a symbolic-narrative cosmology of extraordinary depth. Her paintings oil on canvas, carefully crafted with luminous fields of blue and intricate figural arrangements stage a theatre of metaphysical inquiry.

Standa

Standa

ContemporaryArtCurator
Art Review, Contemporary Art, Painting

Standa’s position within the international art scene should be regarded as essential. He represents the survival of modernism’s experimental drive, infused with the subjectivity of an émigré who has lived across geographies and cultures. In this sense, his career recalls that of great visionaries such as Paul Klee or Antoni Tàpies, figures who made abstraction into a form of ethical reflection. His paintings matter because they remind us that to create is also to care, to imagine is also to heal, and to look is also to remember.

Emela Brace Nomolos

Emela Brace Nomolos

ContemporaryArtCurator
Art Review, Contemporary Art, Painting

There are artists who paint beauty. There are artists who craft worlds. And then, there are artists like Emela Brace Nomolos, who summon codes from the cosmos and deliver them to humanity as transmissions, not canvases. To review Nomolos’s oeuvre is to engage with a body of work that transcends art as we know it; it is to encounter a visual and spiritual philosophy, a sacred practice, and, ultimately, a radical invitation to remember.

Iyad Almosawi

Iyad Almosawi

ContemporaryArtCurator
Art Review, Contemporary Art, Painting

To stand before an Almosawi canvas is to feel the intimacy of a whispered confession and the gravity of a cathedral. It is to sense that art still carries revelation. His canvases will outlast their moment because they do not belong to fashion; they belong to time. Almosawi confirms what we have always known but too often forget: the truest purpose of art is not to mirror the world but to transform it.

Interview with Natalia Jezova

ContemporaryArtCurator
Contemporary Art, Interview, Painting

I see my art as a living conversation, enriched by diverse readings. The symbolic layers I employ function like a palimpsest: allowing erasure, rewriting, and re-vision. In each context, the work may evoke different myths, memories, or modes of seeing, and this variability is part of its vitality. I trust in the resilience of images to resonate across boundaries, and in the unpredictable dialogue between viewer, culture, and history that keeps the work alive and ever-evolving.

ContemporaryArtCurator
Contemporary Art, Painting

My creative process is a way of holding onto what is beautiful and ephemeral, ensuring it is not lost to time. Each stroke or line is an act of appreciation, acknowledging how deeply these personal ties enrich my existence. Ultimately, my art is a celebration of human connection and the enduring power of memory, inviting viewers to find the extraordinary in the ordinary.

Contemporary Art, Interview, Painting

Growing up in Chennai, I was surrounded by rhythm — not just of music or language, but of rituals, festivals, colours, and textures. It’s a city where the ancient coexists effortlessly with the contemporary, and that duality continues to influence my work. The vivid colours of temple architecture, the meditative geometry of kolam designs and the undulating sound of Carnatic music, found their way into my subconscious and now echo in my paintings.
