Past exhibition
Overview
"In his works, Hunt Slonem succeeds in taking us into almost otherworldly beauty through the variation of color and shapes, the oscillation between dream and reality. He shows us impressively the incredible potential of painting. Slonem was able to create his own visual language—committed to the principle of simplicity—which has secured him reputation and following in the art world beyond the USA.”
