NYC GALLERY OPENING - http://nycgalleryopenings.com Please subscribe to this channel - http://youtube.com/nycgalleryopenings https://youtu.be/Zkv1h7-DP0g October 22 - December 19, 2015 Margaret Thatcher Projects is pleased to present Las Mesalinas y Otros Ensayos, an exhibition of paintings by Omar Chacon. In his third solo show at the gallery, Chacon’s work intertwines his heritage with his interest in classical Roman culture and myth. Chacon’s colorful and energetic configurations symbolize both the unity and diversity of the Americas, specifically Colombia, where he was born and raised and New York, where he currently lives. He likens his works to a social gathering and on a larger scale, a nation, comprised of a diverse blend of culturally different peoples, living amongst each other with a sense of unity, yet maintaining individuality. Each oval and drip is unique, prepared separately off the canvas. Chacon then applies and collages these “brushstrokes” onto canvas or paper, building intricate and harmonious compositions.
