Four Views of New York City
New York, NY - Paul Sharpe Contemporary Art (PSCA) announces the opening of a
new exhibit entitled New York In Contemporary Spanish Art, featuring four
artists from Spain: Carlos Bandres, Amaya Bozal, Eduardo Anievas Cortines, and
Alex Serna.
This unique survey of emerging artists from Spain focuses on their
interpretations of New York City. Bandres, a photographer, for example offers
intimate and eerie photographs from September 11th, when he first visited New
York City and was to have an opening the following night at PSCA. Alex Serna
offers paintings on paper that illustrate his fascination with the fire escapes
and brick or steel facades of New York's signature buildings in SoHo and
TriBeCa. Amaya Bozal offers mixed media on paper in tranquil urban landscapes
and Eduardo Anievas Cortines offers lonely paintings ala Giacometti of urban
views such as the subway or streets peopled with elongated figures between the
rhythm of New York's energy and architecture.

PSCA is founded on the premise that the artist comes first and is the raison
d'être of the art world. The role of the gallerist is to nurture creative
accomplishment and to cultivate the collectors and curators who can sustain the
artists. The artists represented are those whose work one would wish to collect
and to enjoy, while helping to support their careers. PSCA is led by Paul
Sharpe, formerly of the Whitney Museum of American Art. The space itself is
meant to encourage a dialogue in issues in art today and as such is designed as
a salon rather than a white box. The color scheme is blue, camel, and white and
it is inspired by a Justin Knowles painting of the mid 1960s. The concept is to
create a space where artist and art lovers can congregate and appreciate fine
contemporary art.
