Esso Gallery, New York
Jennifer Bacon and Filippo Fossati are pleased to announce the opening of the first New York solo exhibition by Eneas, curated by Cristiano Cairati.
About Eneas' Michael Jackson paintings
Well, perhaps art has become like a parrot, it imitates and then repeats
itself so much that it has become like any other mass product.
After all it is as easy to say that art doesn' t exit as it is to say that
it does.
I mean, if Duchamp could say by identifying a urinal as an art piece, that
anything could be art, by the same token one could say that nothing is.
A painting on a wall can be just an object to decorate the wall, hide the
trash and reflect the light.
