The Broadway Gallery NYC is please to announce
Matthew Lauretti
A Solo Show
The exhibition will be on display from March 1 to 15, with an opening reception on March 5, 6-8pm.
World Art Media Presents an exciting solo exhibition by Italian American artist Matthew Lauretti. In the exhibition Lauretti expands and improvises on the modernist vocabulary of Abstraction Expressionism using his own distinctive voice. The artist, known for his instinctual works utilizes his own dreams as a rich source of vivid imagery and vibrant color.
The exhibition marked Lauretti’s distinctive plans for a series of site-specific works in the City of New York will act as a quasi-diary of chaotic arrangements, compositions and colors. Each of these aspects forms a dialogue about one’s relationship with one’s own life, and the existence of the individual within a metropolis. Through research and interpretation of New York City, Lauretti creates a unique cultural matrix of characteristics and topographies. Whether architectural, historical, social or environmental, Lauretti’s upcoming project will discover the hidden meaning behind a space and the individuals who make New York the dynamic place it is.
Creating large-scale, calligraphic-style graffiti paintings, Lauretti’s work about New York explores the themes and relationships of its surroundings. A tireless talent whose artistic life has always been devoted to a search for the new, Lauretti is well known for the dynamism, poetry, and spirit of his works. His paintings are typified by their large size, luminosity, and varied use of materials.
Together, the works in the exhibition, though divergent in style, media, and theme, offer a distinctly creative voice, one that attests to the multiplicity of perspectives. The results of this innovative and spontaneous process are kaleidoscopic works that highlight Lauretti’s idiosyncratic compositional strategies and contextual sensitivity.
