Pantanal Fragil

FIFO STRICKER DANIEL OPPLIGER STEFAN HOFMANN DENIS FELIZ The obvious way of tackling a problem very seldom turns out to have been the right way.

Alex Flemming

As pinturas de Alex Flemming, em acrílico sobre tela, referem-se a fotos de pessoas tiradas por ele mesmo, sendo que várias pessoas em uma pintura podem proceder de diversas fotos individuais. Contudo, as fotos não servem de modelo, diretamente. Elas apenas sugerem, transmitem a pose, o gesto ou a mímica da respectiva pessoa, cuja expressão é então conservada ou transformada no processo criativo. Há um catalogo sobre a exposição.
