Geometric abstraction is the language that unifies this art exhibit.

Artists of various persuasions, career profiles and nationalities come together for the purpose of producing artwork with clean lines and simplicity of pure forms.

For some of them this premise is in line with their personal pathway.

For others the invitation is a challenge: the challenge of articulating – tempering, reconciling- their vocation as expressionist, figurative or abstract painters, with the paradigms of an art based on the beauty of chromatic and structural elements.

In both cases this starting point leads to an act of creation, to search for individual solutions, to dialogue with a certain tradition, discovery of skills and preferences maybe previously unexplored.

By voluntarily renouncing to their personal vocabulary, the artworks included in this exhibition draw our attention to the beauty that lies not in imitation of the real world, but in the composition itself and in organizing the lines in the space.
