On Thursday, March 18, 2010 Axelle Fine Arts will showcase the urban landscapes of Patrick Pietropoli which features the shifting perspectives of Paris, New York, Venice, and Florence. Pietropoli's canvases are extremely detailed, large-scale works that characterize the city as an entity. Each painting utilizes color to convey tone, meaning and mood where Pietropoli's devotion to detail and lighting make his seemingly-still images come alive. The gallery will also feature a small collection of the artist's evocative figure paintings. Pietropoli recently moved from Paris to Brooklyn and will be attending the opening reception. The show will be on display from on March 18, 2010 through April 17, 2010 at Axelle Fine Arts, 535 West 25th Street, NY, NY. The reception is from 6pm to 9pm and is by RSVP only.
