Danilo Pravica @ Gallery Central

Event Title: DANILO PRAVICA ALCHEMY OF THINKING.
Participating Artists: Danilo Pravica.

Venue:
Gallery Central,
12 Aberdeen St, Perth.

Description: DANILO PRAVICA ALCHEMY OF THINKING
10 JUNE - 2 JULY

Human existence meets the heavenly sphere in Pravica's oil paintings, acrylics, drawings and aquatints.

Born in the former Yugoslavia, Danilo Pravica has lived and worked in Perth since 1997. He has had an amazing 44 solo exhibitions in Europe and 8 in Perth. Pravica is represented in collections in 22 countries.

Through form and colour, Pravica transforms the human and the natural worlds into intimations of the infinite, implying the interconnectedness of all things, including the physical and the spiritual. His figures are somehow disembodied, even spectral, certainly universal. They intersect and overlap, looking outwards towards the viewer or inwards towards their own space. Out of these complexities of space and viewing points there frequently arises a figure, outlined in glowing colour, and floating upwards out of the frame. At the same time the background colours become pure and clear, as if to indicate the attainment of some form of the sublime.

Gallery Central is proud to be a partner of the City of Perth Winter Arts Season.

Dates: 10 June 2011 to 02 July 2011.
Opening Times: Mon-Fri 10am-4.45pm; Sat 2-4.45pm.
