Incredibly talented Spanish artists, Joan Coderch and Javier Malavia began creating art together in 2015. They create contemporary figurative realism sculpture together by modelling the pieces and casting them in bronze.
Joan Coderch was born in 1959 in Castellar del Vallés, Barcelona, and he graduated from Barcelona’s Faculty of Fine Art in 1984. Javier Malavia was born in 1970 in Ońati, Guipúzcoa, and he graduated from Valencia’s San Carlos Faculty of Fine Art in 1993. Once they met, they discovered their artistic similarities, which led to their undertaking this new project that follows in the footsteps of masters of figuration such as Maillol, Rodin, Marini and Bourdelle.

“Fireflies in the forest and stars in the night sky connect us with the wonders of childhood and fairytales. As creatures of mystery and magic, fireflies invite the viewer to follow their luminous trail in the delicate dance between light and dark. In relation to stars, they define a nocturnal atmosphere where microcosm turns into macrocosm and vice versa. As human beings we naturally found ourselves at the crossroad between these two dimensions. Apart from the sea and the sky, blue is the rarest color in nature. It is linked with eternity, supernatural beauty, religious transcendence, the beyond.

I paint forests from my imagination. They are not a representation of specific geographical locations. However these places exist as a manifestation of inner spaces.
In relation to stars, they define a nocturnal atmosphere where microcosm turns into macrocosm and vice versa. As human beings we naturally found ourselves at the crossroad between these two dimensions .
The forest as a threshold symbol into the unconscious was the conceptual starting point for these ink paintings. I’m drawn to this archetype loaded with symbolic connotations: a place of loneliness, healing, regression, entanglement, growth and self discovery.”

He studied art at the University of Los Andes in Bogota, and in 1988 left for New York to pursue a master’s degree in fine art under the supervision of Luis Camnitzer. In 1996, he abandoned his paintbrushes and began creating his sculptures out of everyday objects, whose beauty is often overlooked. Uribe constructs and weaves his sculptures in curious and unpredictable, repetitive and almost compulsive ways, yet still with reference to the history and tradition of classical art.

Uribe’s work has become prominent in the United States over the past decade, and has been collected by multiple museums, and featured in several museum exhibitions across the country. He has most recently created installations for the Hudson River Museum (NY), Mass MoCA (MA), the Montgomery Museum of Fine Art (AL), and the Montclair Art Museum (NJ). Federico Uribe currently has an exhibition at the Madison Museum of Contemporary Art (WI) on view through June 2024. Federico Uribe art-Adelson Galleries

“Flashbacks” is the latest series from the artist BREAKFAST, which explores the fusion of art and memory. This interactive artwork records a brief clip of each individual who interacts with it, subsequently replaying a selection of these clips from the artwork’s memory.
The piece is constructed using Flip-Discs, a medium BREAKFAST has been perfecting since 2012. Each disc is intricately flipped using electromagnets.

BREAKFAST is celebrated for their digitally-driven kinetic sculpture. At the core of their work is a dedication to crafting advanced artworks that harmoniously blend software and hardware. These creations not only provide interactive experiences that transcend physical boundaries but also convey the poignant narratives of our dynamically evolving world. Patrick Hughes: (British, b. 1939) Patrick Hughes’ first solo show was in 1961 in Mayfair, London. The catalogue introduction was by the critic David Sylvester. He has since held one-person exhibitions in Los Angeles and San Francisco, Chicago, Boston and New York, and in France, Germany, Italy, Holland, Belgium and Switzerland, one hundred and fifty-four so far.
Patrick made his first reverse perspective, or reverspective, relief painting in 1964 and has refined his technique since. These artworks are constructed of wooden pyramids in perspective but the wrong way round, with the furthest point of the space represented being closest to the viewer. The result is optical illusion. As the viewer looks and moves near the painting it seems to change seamlessly, giving an illusion of movement in three-dimensions.
Patrick Hughes received an honorary degree of Doctor of Science from the University of London in 2014 for his contribution to the study of the psychology of perception. Hughes wrote a book titled “Paradoxymoron” that gives insight into his thought process and ideas. His 3D art is in many private and public collections including art museums internationally.
