Luca Lazar

Luca Lazar, who lives and works in New York, explains his art as, „distinctively sensuous and complex in their simplicity“. Because he is concerned with structures, systems, rhythm, information, perception, and thus also about social utopias and reforms. His refined use of texture grants form, color and image design far-reaching autonomy of the figurative. The current exhibited works are part of Lazar’s continuous production of his minimalist abstract series Moving Stills, consisting of works that depict movement in time. Using a vocabulary of minimalist forms, the individual works in this series give the suggestion of energetic movement within a motionless, frozen setting. The works reflect the experience of abstraction of our surrounding environment, and the necessity for Lazar „to portray how we experience the elements of nature and structure”.

Lazar is an accomplished, award-winning artist with a long-standing track record, whose art has been exhibited in museums and galleries around the world and whose works are part of internationally renowned museums including the Museum Ludwig – Aachen collection (Germany), Documenta Archive Museum Fridericianum – Kassel – (Germany), Gallery de France (Paris), Zimmerli Art Museum, NJ(USA), National Tretiakov Gallery, Moscow (Russia), Henry Nannen Museum- Emden (Germany), Leopold Hoish Museum – Duren (Germany) State Art Museum (Tbilisi)...
