INNER FIRE
October 26 – November 13, 2010
VIRIDIAN GALLERY
New York, NY


Chelsea, NYC: Viridian Artists is pleased to present new work by the artist, Arthur Dworin. Entitled “Inner Fire”, the exhibition of oil paintings on linen and canvas opens Tuesday, October 26
th and extends through Saturday, November 13th with a reception Saturday, October 30th, 4-6 PM.

Layers of luminosity dance to vibrant magnetic forces and vivid hues in Arthur Dworin’s oil paintings and Giclée prints, completed over the last three years. Alongside dynamic geometry and juxtapositions, the artist creates work that is, at once, serene and electrifying. And his intricate process emerges—planted in canvas.

Long a practitioner of Agni Yoga or Fire Yoga, a mediatation focused on color frequencies associated with areas of consciousness, Dworin’s paintings have evolved like a many faceted stone. The artist’s hope is that the spirit in these works will act as a key to awaken what is already deep within the observer and with each viewing, will bring a greater awareness of our inner and outer universes.

A Detroit native, Dworin has lived and worked since 1967 in Manhattan, where he’s also been a Scenic Artist for TV, movies, ballet, opera and theater. The recipient of several grants, the artist has regularly exhibited in Europe and the US. This is his third solo show at Viridian Gallery. To preview the work, visit www.ArthurDworin.com.

The artist’s numerous private collectors include MoMA’s former Chief Curator of Painting and Sculpture, Peter Selz. Dr. Selz, author of 15 books on 20th century art, writes, in 2010: “Arthur Dworin’s paintings are endowed with an original sense of sonorous color. Abstract as they are, they bring a new sense of visual order to organic forms of nature.”

Gallery hours: Tues., Wed. & Saturday 10:30-6; Thurs. & Fri. 2-6
