Argazzi Art presents “Through Layers” by artist Victor Mirabelli from November 9 to December 29. Victor Mirabelli’s latest body of work, “Through Layers,” captures a lighter, more spirited approach to painting. More than just a technique, his objective is to use color to represent the visual aspects of a specific structure or scape, while maintaining the emotional integrity that accompanies that experience. The palette is brighter, more colorful and intriguing. Mirabelli does not shy away from using a vivid pink, yellow, orange, or blue. Images are created by layering color, resulting in a matte or, at times, a glass-like effect—a translucency. His shapes are cleaner, more classic. The artist’s use of subtle brushwork and scraping of paint breathes life, and invites the viewer inside Mirabelli’s picture story. “I have to become that structure, and feel the life that lived there.”
In celebration of his fourth solo exhibition, and the 21st anniversary of Argazzi Art, one of Connecticut’s oldest and most established galleries, we are pleased to present “Through Layers.” The partnership with Mirabelli has been a long-term relationship both in nurturing his career as well as establishing a strong collector base for the work. Argazzi Art opened its doors in 2003, and has showcased both mid-career and established artists exhibiting contemporary work in a historic building in the village of Lakeville.
