About the Artist: Charles Palminteri
"Illusion" by Charles Palminteri
Charles Palminteri is a bold, abstract painter of the "action" school. Many of his works are purchased by architects for office buildings and executive homes in New Jersey, New York, Connecticut and Florida. Mr. Palminteri has exhibited at Trafalgar Galleries, Inner Visions, Abelew Galleries and Foote, Cone & Belding.
Palminteri uses a variety of styles and approaches in an abstract impressionist framework. Some are large bold patterns and shapes developed from Japanese Kanji and Hiragana calligraphy. The stark contrast of these shapes in their background sets up a tension between the negative and positive areas that demand attention from the viewer. In other works, Palminteri's lines are soft and flowing. With a series of undercoatings, he achieves a luminosity of color and light. His shapes lead the viewer into a maze of dreams and fantasy. No matter how soft the lines and shapes, the overall message is strong and clear. His three-dimensional artwork ranges from garden size stainless steel sculptures to table top, wall and ceiling art created from mixed media and computer components.
About the Artist: Kurt Merkel
Kurt Merkel is an artist's artist. His intense body of work is derived from the deepest creative elements of human nature. He creates from intuition and self expression, letting the rhythms and flows of energy reveal what he calls "The Language of Poetic Line". Merkel's medium of choice is Birch wood, as the wood's grain presents its own rhythms and energy; creating an even deeper relationship between the medium's natural characteristics and the painter's intuitive self-expression.
Kurt's work is impossible to ignore. The visual transparency of his work is beautiful, calming and deep with imagery and emotion. They reach out and compel you to engage in an intimate dialog. And in this conversation, through this language of poetic line, a relationship will develop that will draw you back again and again... as fresh, and as deep as you're willing to go.
"Pablo Picasso believed that his paintings must awaken something, even in the man who doesn't ordinarily look at pictures. In each painting, he wanted to provide something for every level of thinking.
I share this view and my intent is to communicate with you, through this universal language of poetic line... through imagery and emotions... offering you a part of me, that you may find, is a part of you. Enjoy!"
Kurt Merkel was born in Wooster, Ohio and grew up on Long Island, New York. With a degree in Advertising Art and Design, Kurt began working as an Art Director, Illustrator and Calligrapher for a variety of ad agencies and design studios in NYC. In 1989, Kurt moved to Orlando, Florida to open his own design studio. Presently, he lives in Miami... where he will continues to exercise his creative talents as an artist, photographer and musician, in this vibrant artistic environment..
