  • ISABEL MIRAMONTES

  • Unique Art of Emptiness

    Unique Art of Emptiness

    • Isabel Miramontes was born in Santiago de Compostella in Spain. This eminent place of pilgrimage, which is of Celtic origin, the warm wind and sea, always fascinates her and remains for her a magical area.

    •  The body, posture, movement and essence of human life are at the heart of Miramontes’ work. Abstract bodies cut into strips, Isabel Miramontes explores the concept of sculpture. At the height of the usual sculpture, she opposes an apparent emptiness. For her, sculpture is not a block of material to which a shape is given, sculpture is a void to which the artist gives a surface.

    • Matter resduced to the essential that gently transforms itself into emotions and forgotten sensations, the supreme value of its destiny.  The visual language of Isable Miramontes steadfastly represents the human being in all the ambiguity of its power and frailty, its confinement and yearning for liberty, its dreams and triumphs. The fascinating figure, the synthesis of forms and thoughts, expresses the reality of life with its moments of joy, but also drama, abandon and tension. Indeed a figure who most assuredly speaks to everyone at the very depth of their being...

    Absence of Matter, Above the Apperance...

    • Jacques Van den Abeele was born in 1960 in Belgium.
     
    • He was graduated at the Oudenaarde Fine Arts Academy and received the Belgium Government Medal for Decorative Arts and Sculpture. He also graduated in Drawing (living models) at the Saint Lucas Academy in Gent.
     
    • Van Den Abeele won several awards and his sculptures have been purchased by museums, municipalities, councils and private collectors in Europe.
    • Jacques Van Den Abeele plays on volumes and voids to give power and mystery to his musicians or animals and to stimulate the public's imagination. But the "non-present" is as important as the present so Matter and Void alternate like a pause between notes: Sound and Silence. The artist enables each statue to express, above and beyond its appearance, sensitivity, emotion and innermost fears. The absence of matter thus shows itself to be as expressive as the matter itself. It is in the material and in the reality of things that Jacques Van Den Abeele draws his inspiration and his determination to reveal the profundity and the precariousness of life.

    PAOLA GRIZI

    REPRESENTATIVE ITALIAN SCULPTOR

    • Paola Grizi is a worldwide well-known Italian sculptor.

    Among many prizes, she won the Special Public Award at the 35th CICA International Competition de L’Alcora in Spain and then went on to serve on the jury of the same contest in 2016.

    Sculpture of Book & Face

    A Merger of Literature & Art, Book & Human

     

    • For many years Paola Grizi has produced incredible sculptures of faces that seem to emerge from the pages of books. Whether sculpted in terracotta or cast in bronze, she subtly manipulates the compositions to evoke emotion. These mysterious faces seem to appear from the ether, sometimes casting a meditative gaze and at other times lacking any eyes at all.

     

    • The works of Paola Grizi are highly contemplative. There are many possible interpretations.  On one side there is the conceptual and rational sphere (the book); On the opposite the intuitive and tactile part (the face). Communication occurs mainly through emotions and moods rather than being didactic and rational.
