Denise Bibro Fine Art announces their first Virtual Art Auction Tuesday, November 16 – Tuesday, November 23, 2021

Bernd Mattiebe, Untitled III, 1999, acrylic on canvas, 31 x 21.5 in. USD 1,500 – 2200 DBFA Virtual Art Auction Tuesday, November 16 – Tuesday, November 23, 2021 Denise Bibro Fine Art is thrilled to announce the inaugural DBFA Virtual Art Auction featuring the work of Michael Ricardo Andreev, Paul Binai, David Herman, Erica Licea-Kane, Inger Sand Lee, Bernd Mattiebe, Barbara Morgan, and Peter Wiehl. Starting tomorrow, visit our Artsy page to view work and place a bid! Michael Ricardo Andreev's prints are allegorical, emotional dialogues with the collective unconscious, emphasized by bright colors, overlapping juxtapositions of shapes, and flying objects to create a multilayered experience. Paul Binai fuses Eastern and Western culture, depicting a mysterious dark side inspired by Noir Cinematography. His characters are drawn from literature, history, personal experiences, and memory.  David Herman uses repetition and sequences to produce artwork imbued with unique movement and rhythm, placing emphasis on both shapes and negative space.  Erica Licea-Kane’s multi-layered mixed-media work explores visual forms and shapes of nature, often combining them with geometric patterns, creating tension between organic and rigid structures.  Inger Sand Lee employs organic materials to achieve a perfect synthesis of aesthetics and science in her minimalistic compositions with highly tactile surfaces. Bernd Mattiebe explores color as an ultimate stimulus and a trigger of psychological response, taking inspiration from the works of color field master Morris Louis. Barbara Morgan creates complex photomontages by employing old and recent negatives along with hand painting, infusing each piece with an intimate and personal touch of an artist.  Peter Wiehl's work reflects his keen interest in the properties and characteristics of mixed media and the desire to uncover the mystery of the universal laws of transformation in natural phenomena.

Denise Bibro Fine Art Remixing Abstraction:Cheating the Banal! Wow now that's a big job!!!

DON KIMES  REMIXING ABSTRACTION:  CHEATING THE BANAL   December 3, 2020 - January 30, 2021

Palette, 2020. Acrylic and ink on canvas, 68.5 x 51.5 inches _____________________________________________________________________________

Denise Bibro Fine Art is pleased to announce Don Kimes' third solo show at the gallery entitled, Remixing Abstraction: Cheating the Banal. The exhibition will open December 3, 2020 and run through January 30, 2021.    Remixing Abstraction: Cheating the Banal is comprised of work completed within the past three years. Like works in his previous solo exhibitions at Denise Bibro Fine Art, these works have evolved from experiences and assimilations of adversities from the past thirty years or more. Kimes' personal tragic event of losing years of painting, drawing, and inventory from a flooded studio has been the catalyst for constant sourcing of memories and experiences that are transformed into art. This journey has crossed a path were the experience of loss has fine-tuned his present work, allowing no room for the formulaic or decorative.   Kimes' work has evolved counter to the "Zombie Abstraction" movement that current critics like Jerry Saltz note as being without context or history.    Kimes divides his time between Washington, DC, New York State and Italy. He is represented by Denise Bibro Fine Art in New York City, where he has also shown at Frederieke Taylor, Kouros, Lucky Strike, National Academy of Design, Arsenal Gallery, Ammo Artists Space, The Brooklyn Museum, and Prince Street Gallery. He has exhibited internationally at Rueda Museum, Madrid; The Florence Biennale; Rocca Paolina, Perugia; Casa de Cultura, Mexico; Living Art, Milan; and America Haus, Munich, among many others. Kimes teaches at American University in Washington, DC. He is also Artistic Director at the ACI program, a residency for artists and writers in Umbria, Italy. He has been a finalist for the position of Chair of the National Endowment for the Arts and has served as Artistic Director in the Visual Arts at the renowned Chautauqua Institution from 1986 through 2018.

_____________________________________________________________________________ Denise Bibro Fine Art is open Tuesday - Saturday 11am - 6pm.  Masks are mandatory when entering the building and gallery.  Hand Sanitzer is available.

Denise Bibro Fine Art exhibits Aldofo Doring's photos and film October 3 - November 9, 2019.

GALLERY II: ADOLFO DORING PHOTOGRAPHY AND VIDEO     October 3 - November 9, 2019 Adolfo Doring (131-190) Garage, Los Angeles Sylvia Elizabeth, Brooklyn (POSTED 162 GRAMS), 2016 Unique silver gelatin print, 9 x 12.75 inches, framed Denise Bibro Fine Art is pleased to announce its first exhibition of photography and video work by the late multidisciplinary artist, Adolfo Doring. His diptych silver gelatin black and white images are from his POSTED 162 Grams series and the larger photos are from his American Burger series. Doring's solo exhibition runs October 3 - November 9, 2019. Doring's diptychs are based on images of females and environmental scenes that he posted on Instagram from August 2014 - September 2015. Each image of a female figure and the environment were assigned a layer of meta-data to differentiate the two types of images, then a second set of meta-data was assigned to indicate the number of likes for each image, which he would combine to make a diptych. When selecting which images would be placed on the right and the left, Doring left it completely up to chance; he flipped a coin. In his own words, "The random nature of the process has given me the unexpected pleasure of experiencing unexpected compositions." The American Burger series and the video shown about highways in Mexico City display the commercialism, fast pace and unpredictability in the city, although quite different they are still in tone with his humanistic and idiosyncratic style. The video shown sets a contrasting tone from the rich, vintage tones of the photograph, echoing the nuts and bolts of the infrastructure of motorways in his native city, Mexico City, full of the life, movement and pace of the city. His compositions are silver gelatin prints. His photographs reference the daguerreotypes of nineteenth-century photography. As New York writer, Miss Rosen states, "... when regular people who might not be able to afford a portrait could have likenesses preserved-much in the same way digital photography has democratized the image making. By translating digital photographs back to film, Doring illustrates that progress is not necessarily a linear affair, just as randomness is a valuable tool in the creative process." Rosen further notes ".... that somewhere where between chance and mystery lies imagination." Doring has been behind the camera since he was a teenager in Mexico City, where he shot his first documentary about the stark divide between rich and poor. Later he had an extensive and illustrious career making films, documentaries, music videos, taking photographs, and crafting art installations centered upon his videos. He studied law at Universidad Anahuac in Mexico City, Mexico, and Sociology and Film at Columbia University, New York. His video work in the music industry earned him an MTV Music Video Award. His narrative films and documentaries earned him critical praise (Metro premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival in 2009) and his video installations have travelled the world over. Since 2010 his works have been featured in many Whitebox Center shows as well as in other exhibitions curated by Silas Von Morisse Gallery, New York, NY; Raul Zamudio-in Shanghai, China; Monterrey, Mexico; San Jose, Costa Rica; and Saint Angelo, Italy. Adolfo's untimely death in 2016 leaves behind a rich legacy for future generations to cherish.
