Rade Petrasevic – Where is Everybody?
Mostra personale
Comunicato stampa
ALMA ZEVI is delighted to announce Where is Everybody?, Rade Petrasevic's first solo exhibition in Switzerland. The show brings together a selection of oil paintings on peva (shower curtain) of figures entangled in impossible positions, navigating an imaginary space either alone or with another body. Petrasevic composes his scenes with uniform brushstrokes and uses a strangely jarring palette of colours. His gestures are graphic and direct, lending a disruptive and yet clear language to his paintings. For this exhibition, Petrasevic’s two metre by two metre pevas have been pinned to wooden structures, creating a navigable architectural space that counteracts the artist’s imagined scenarios.
This is Petrasevic's first solo show with ALMA ZEVI. Petrasevic received his B.F.A. from the Academy of Fine Arts, Vienna and Bezalel Academy of Fine Arts, Jerusalem. He has recently exhibited at Friedman Benda (New York); Galerie Charim (Vienna); The Breeder (Athens); and Limoncello Gallery (London). Born in 1982, the artist lives and works in Vienna.
