Miaz Brothers & The Masters
Fabien Castanier Gallery
September 13-October 11, 2014
This September, Fabien Castanier Gallery in Los Angeles, CA is presenting the first U.S. solo exhibition by Italian artists, the Miaz Brothers. The brothers create their art with a goal to take on a new perspective to seeing portraiture. By using only aerosol paint, they make large-format pieces based on traditional portraits by the Masters of the Renaissance painting era. “We look to provide a visual experience that activates our awareness that compels the viewer to recognize and re-establish the limits of his or her own perception, to regain control of the real,” they state about their work. The result is mysterious, ghost-like portraits that forces the viewer to remember the past.
