This was a very successful exhibition..many wonderful artworks depicting various style and concepts were displayed..
Yes, it was great event. Wonderful that Kuwait gave a space and possibility to foreign artists to showcase their talents.
The Enzo Manara exhibition was a very fascinating exhibition with an empowering and unique concept. Unlike other artists, Enzo Manara get’s his inspiration from scientific researches in astrophysics and anthropology. The universe and the solar system are his main inspiration. Black is used in his art to convey depth and the absence of light, red for the energy of the stars, and lastly the metallic parts symbolize solar presence which is important for life and survival itself, and it reminds him of the ancient practices with the gold in alchemy. It was also noticed in his work that not a lot of objects take place, most of his art contain repetition or a constant pattern, and uses pure vivid colors and curves. This indicates that Enzo Manara views art from a whole new perspective, one that I have never heard of before, which makes him a unique artist. Walking into the exhibition, all the works had something similar which was their simplicity, repeated shapes, and the color gold. His works are the sort of artworks that have a whole story hidden underneath the basic composition. His works are of high quality and one can tell that he truly studied the science of anthropology and methodology and applied their significance in each aspect of the artworks.
