Email with any questions.....thank you. ========================================================================= Pedro Alberti: (1920-2010) Argentinian conceptual artist Pedro Alberti is an award-winning Argentinian artist and architect. In his Los Angeles, CA studio, he skillfully divides large-scale canvases into multiple rectilinear and triangular interior and exterior spaces in neutral gray and beige pigments. Melding in and out of these abstractions are anonymous people engaged with one another in various states of contemplation. Influenced by Sartrean freedom philosophy, emotionally charged personal motifs of Francis Bacon and abstractions of Jasper Johns, Alberti constructs windows into non-judgmental worlds where the human condition, the choice between shackles of alienation versus keys to liberation, consume daily life. Alberti experiments with philosophical themes and incorporates these messages in every aspect of his creative process. Using handmade cotton paper, he fuses painting, sculpting, and drawing to enrich large-scale abstract figurative works. Alberti often uses his handmade paper as symbolic texts to narrate the message behind each painting. Poetry often being a layer in each of his uniquely constructed canvases. Alberti splits his canvases into geometric parts that form the basis of his work, exploring dimensions in the context of levels his background in architecture provides a different perspective and angle for each visual—often drawing several scenes that deliver a story of their own. Building from the subdivisions, Alberti then proceeds to crystallize his choice of soft and cloud-like hues, using bold colors sparingly. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Email or Text any Questions.....thank you.
