Vincent Castiglia Announces NY Exhibition
Surrealist Vincent Castiglia has announced the “Archetypes” Exhibition & Live Art Event in NYC on Thursday April 16th, from 6-9 PM at the Dorian Grey Gallery.
Since Sheik ‘N’ Beik Art Collective met Vincent seven years ago, he has been developing a body of work with what some would consider an “unconventional” technique. The entire collection of his paintings was created exclusively in his own human blood. He believes that this singularly personal medium contains his own psychic energy, while working with it gives it an outlet and form. In doing so, he dissolves the barrier between art and artist in a most literal and immediate sense.
In the wake of Vincent’s 33rd birthday, the age of the Christ’s crucifixion and resurrection, “Archetypes” has been curated by Julio Santo Domingo, Roger de Cabrol, and Benjamin Larretche from the Sheik ‘N’ Beik Art Collective, to showcase the relative themes of death and rebirth in Vincent’s work. The exhibition opening will mark the launch of Castiglia’s official partnership and collaboration with the Sheik ‘N’ Beik Collective. More...
