Rosque (Leonardo Cescon) is an artist from Italy, currently living near Venice and studying painting at the Accademia Delle Belle Arti. Joining the Accademia changed Leonardo’s perspective on his works, slowly abstracting more and more.
He eventually became interested with the interactions between digital and physical: studying Glitch Art and morphing brushstrokes into Pixel Sorted images. That brought Rosque into creating purely digital images by disrupting photos he takes (related to the meaning or composition of the piece).
Research on a topic is something necessary for his works, granting a deeper meaning, yet allowing the spectator to read the piece through his experience.
LUME Studios brings 'HOMAGE' to NYC to showcase Accelerate Art & Art Bees Gallery's tribute exhibition to Constantin Brancusi. Featuring 47 digital artworks made in conversation with Brancusi's legacy, curated by Claire Silver & NONE32X32.
The act of homage—of creation, in conversation with the work of another artist—reminds us that art is a living thing. Even Pleistocene cave art and the megaliths of Stonehenge still inspire; it is only natural that some of the world’s most innovative digital artists have joined together to celebrate the work of Constantin Brancusi with their own original creations.
Organised by Art Bees in partnership with Accelerate Art and hosted by the Constantin Brancusi Center of the Craiova Museum, HOMAGE will feature works from forty-eight digital artists, taking inspiration from Brancusi’s work and life.
The curators for this exhibition were NONE32X32 and Claire Silver with NONE32X32 curating the 18 featured artists and Claire Silver, the 30 artists who responded to an Accelerate Art open call thread on Twitter.
