The Agora Gallery (530 West 25th Street, Chelsea, New York, NY, 10001) is proud to present Dominic Lutringer in Matrix of the Mind: Fine Art by Japanese Artists. Scheduled to run from February 24th through March 17th, the collection will feature a captivating selection of Dominic Lutringer’s new artworks.
Dominic Lutringer’s spirited paintings tell alluring but elusive stories about our perceptions of the world. His work resembles images we encounter on a daily basis—a sliced orange or a wilting daisy, for instance—that are at once ordinary and exquisitely beautiful. Bold primary colors drive Lutringer’s compositions but green and orange nuance his paintings’ narratives. Lutringer vacillates between representation and abstraction. He often depicts foliage yet occasionally allows suggestive, unrecognizable marks to overrun leaves and stems. Since he began painting, Lutringer has actively interacted with the artistic and intellectual language of Gerhard Richter’s luscious abstractions and photo realism. Equally attuned to the visceral and sublime potentials of visual art, Lutringer’s work leaves us feeling an optimistic connection to everyday life.
A native of France, Dominic Lutringer studied at Ecole des Beaux Arts in Strasbourg. Currently living in Japan he works in both Singapore and France where he regularly completes commissioned work for international firms.
