Gether Contemporary (DK)

Gether Contemporary was founded by Sophus Gether in the Meatpacking District of Copenhagen, Denmark in 2014. The gallery is devoted to the exhibition of contemporary art and its vision is to present a programme that deviates from established norms and provokes new thoughts and feelings. The gallery has built its foundation on supporting young ambitious talents, each with a radical and distinctive approach towards artistic practice.

Gioele Amaro (IT)

A master of the art of synthesis, Amaro combines, transforms, and blurs boundaries to construct a dialogue between traditional mediums (painting, photography, drawing) and new technologies. His work is digitally painted, then printed on canvas. He then meticulously reworks each canvas, applying several layers of varnish. By bringing his own touch to this original technique, Amaro shifts figurative representation into the abstract and captures the essence of the subject from real life. As much as Amaro works with the abstract as part of an ephemeral visual state, he also works with the distortion of familiar motifs and icons. Several of Amaro’s works paraphrase, or directly derive their “motifs”, from works from art history or digital pop culture. These are processed until they inhabit a sensual place between abstraction and recognition.

Gioele Amaro (b. 1986, Calabria; IT) lives and works in Paris. He is a trained architect and previously worked with renowned architect Jean Nouvel. He has participated in major international exhibitions at Reinhard Hauff, Balice Hertling, Almine Rech, High Art, Cuturi Gallery, and Galerie Untilthen. His works are included in a variety of private and public collections internationally.
