Martin
Lawrence Galleries, the 26,000 square-foot gallery featuring more than $50
million of art from the masters to the modern marvels, will host a special
artist reception at their new flagship location in The Forum Shops featuring
the artist Felix Mas on Friday, May 11 from 7 p.m. – 9 p.m. This special exhibition will feature the
artist in a unique up-close and personal setting where he will speak about his
work and describe what inspires his images which celebrate the luminous beauty
of the female form. In addition, to meeting the highly-regarded artist, a
number of new original works and limited edition prints will be available for
acquisition.
“We
are excited to welcome Felix Mas and share his new original works including El
Canto de Los Mares and El Ultimo Retoque,” said Stacie Goulet, Gallery
Director. “These new pieces are
exceptional works that reflect the talent and expressive imagery that Mas is
known for.”
Spanish
Artist Felix Mas uses his paintbrush to convey emotion. He considers himself a
traditionalist, obsessed with form and color, creating images that celebrate
femininity and the luminous beauty of the female form. Born in Barcelona, he
trained at both the Artes y Oficios and the Escuela Superior de San Jorge, and
then furthered his artistic education with extensive travels throughout Europe
and the United States, eventually returning to his native Barcelona to work.
For Mas, painting implies color, emotion and impression. His works, he says,
are “infinite.” His elegantly dressed female figures, whether gazing into the
distance or drifting into a daydream, captivate with their graceful radiance
and evocatively strong emotions. Mas finds inspiration in women amidst the
opulent settings of the Asian world, especially Japan and India with their
beautiful costumes and landscape, Egypt, ripe with its enigmatic symbols, and
ancient Greece and Rome, saturated with their unique elegance and sensuality.
