Adriana Oliver Art
Spanish, b. 1990
Adriana Oliver is one of the most prominent contemporary artists today. Born in Barcelona in 1990, her work has established itself within the Pop Art movement, with a fresh and minimalist approach that explores identity, stereotypes, and gender roles. Her artwork, characterized by human figures devoid of facial features, evokes deep emotions and reflections, leaving space for viewers to project their own experiences onto the pieces.
From an early age, Oliver was surrounded by an artistic environment that nurtured her interest in the visual arts. Initially, she was drawn to photography, a discipline that allowed her to develop a sensitivity for composition and visual storytelling. However, over time, she felt the need for a more personal and unrestricted form of expression, which led her to painting. This transition enabled her to explore more complex and nuanced themes, solidifying her visual language.
Oliver's style is distinguished by her use of muted color blocks and thick outlines that define human figures. These figures, often inspired by classic films from the 1950s and 1960s, lack defined facial features, allowing their representations to be universal. This deliberate omission invites viewers to project their own interpretations and emotions onto the artwork.
The influence of cinema is evident in her compositions, which often resemble frozen frames in time. Her background in photography has also played a crucial role in her creative process, providing a precise approach to structure and framing in her paintings.
Adriana Oliver’s work is deeply connected to the exploration of identity and gender roles in contemporary society. By stripping her figures of individual features, she emphasizes the archetypal nature of representations of masculinity and femininity. Her works challenge social stereotypes and examine the tension between individual and collective identity in an era dominated by media representation.
Her color palette, composed of neutral and muted tones, reinforces a sense of nostalgia and timelessness. These subtle colors contribute to the introspective atmosphere of her paintings, inviting silent reflection on the human condition.
Throughout her career, Oliver has exhibited in various cities around the world, including Tokyo, Taipei, London, Basel, and São Paulo. These exhibitions have strengthened her reputation in the contemporary art scene and allowed her work to be appreciated on an international scale.
In addition to her exhibitions in galleries and art fairs, she has collaborated with fashion brands such as the Japanese label ADAM ET ROPÉ, blending her art with textile design. These collaborations have enabled her work to reach a broader audience, taking her artistic vision beyond the canvas.
Oliver’s creative process is meticulous and structured. She often uses digital tools to sketch her ideas before transferring them to the canvas. This methodology allows her to experiment with shapes and colors until achieving the desired composition. She then applies acrylic paint with precision, creating the characteristic minimalist effect of her work.
Her approach to color and composition is heavily influenced by her experience in photography, resulting in a careful use of negative space and a well-balanced visual aesthetic in each piece.to

Bucranium - Surreal Sculpture, Animal Sculpture, Green Metal and Resin Sculpture
By Angelo Canevari
Located in New York, NY
Angelo Canevari’s Bucranium is a 34 x 19 inch mix media surrealist sculpture. It is made of metal, resin, green automotive paint, and cardboard. It is a surrealist interpretation of the carved decoration, representing ox-skulls, commonly used in Classical architecture for the friezes of Doric temples. The same motif was also later used on Renaissance, Baroque and Neoclassical buildings. Canevari's contemporary interpretation is evident in the medium he chose to shape this artwork and yet it maintains the same commanding and monumental presence of the classical monuments that have inspired it..
