    Description

    "Sign of imminent alignment of the sunset with Manhattan’s grid aka Manhattanhenge 05.27.20". [Clara Kasser]

    Manhattanhenge, also called the Manhattan Solstice, is an event during which the setting sun or the rising sun is aligned with the east–west streets of the main street grid of Manhattan, New York City. The sunsets and sunrises each align twice a year, on dates evenly spaced around the summer solstice and winter solstice. The sunset alignments occur around May 28 and July 13. The sunrise alignments occur around December 5 and January 8. Excellent places for viewing Manhattanhenge are 14th, 23rd, 34th, 42nd, and 57th Streets [wikipedia]

  • About this artist

    Concept

    I never attended art school, my life has always been marked by the dualism between artistic
    creativity and entrepreneurial skills. I consider myself a self-taught, and as such I have always
    sought autonomy in my way.
    I am a realist artist and as such I paint scenes of everyday life, scenes from my time. In any way, I
    leave a testimony of my passage. The idea is to capture the vital breath of the city through the flow
    of people's life on the streets. So to speak, our paths have crossed and mutually changed their
    course. With my paintings, I tell the beginning of a story, leaving as always to the viewer, the
    freedom to imagine the continuation according to his own experience.
    By doing this I always try to balance the two forces that lead me to paint: the first one marked
    realism the other to a more conceptual simplification of traits.
    My whole paintings completely reflect the dualism between this two forces. The color shades in
    steps as level curves of a map has a precise meaning. Here comes what I call "sampled realism".
    At first view, when you look at my paintings, you can have an almost realistic impact, but at more
    attentively watch you can appreciate all the losses defined by the different colors between the
    curves. It is a bit of a metaphor for the modern digital life. Day by day we lose some pieces that we
    feel worthless, anyway absently we can't perceive this loss. These gaps represent not just the
    shortcomings of our lives, but at the same time give us the opportunity to build a new reality
    reformulated on our knowledge and experience.
