Chelsea’s Agora Gallery will feature Canadian artist, Chantelle Gobeil, in Beyond Borders: an Exhibition of Fine Art from Canada. The exhibition is scheduled to run from October 7, 2011 through October 28, 2011 (opening reception: Thursday, October 13, 2011).
About the Artist
Flowing, organic forms, saturated in color and emotion, characterize Chantelle Gobeil’s spirited, painterly works. Life pulsates throughout these paintings, as rich textures and hues radiate centrifugally in piercing curvilinear forms and pure, natural lines. An earthen palette, enlivened with electric tones, distinguishes Gobeil’s abstract expressionistic style with a contemporary flourish. Poignantly melodic in brushwork and composition alike, these paintings are begun from life drawings, as the artist finds exquisite inspiration in the simple, subtle beauty of the human body. Evocative of not only her life’s journey, but of the universal human experience, Gobeil’s paintings speak to the poetic, beautiful happenings of everyday life. “Through my color and textured canvas I would like to touch people and allow them to feel an intimacy with the passion I am portraying,” she says. “I would like people to develop their own stories and attachment to my work.”
A Canadian native, Chantelle Gobeil has exhibited work throughout Canada and the United States.
