NEW YORK, NY – Chelsea’s Agora Gallery will feature the original work of Guy Austin in Chelsea International Fine Art Competition Exhibition. The exhibition opens August 19, 2017 and runs through August 30, 2017 with an opening reception on Saturday, August 19 from 6-8 pm.
Part science, part mathematics, and entirely art, the work of American artist Guy Austin is a treat for both the mind and heart. Austin's prints turn fractals into aesthetic statements in ghostly monochrome. His whirling energy lines are monumental against an inky, depthless background. Detailed textures are rendered impeccably, while light is used both to illuminate and drive the momentum of the composition. With his latest series, Austin explores the universal and invisible forces that shape our daily lives, starting with the smallest breeze.
Austin lives and works in Los Angeles.

About the Exhibition
Chelsea International Fine Art Competition Exhibition
This August Agora Gallery presents the selected artists of the 2017 Chelsea International Fine Art Competition. As in years past, the work on display is of incredible variety and extraordinary skill. There are precise, spare drawings in the same gallery as maximal, playful sculptures. There are monochrome, graphic paintings that explore repetition hung near hyper realistic still lifes that take inspiration from the classics of centuries past. There are imagined lands and images of human moments that ring with truth. Even two selected landscape photographers defy comparison - some produce stoic, black-and-white views of single trees, while others create expansive vistas in full color. The 2017 jurors' picks share nothing except fearlessness, adroit execution, and unforgettable originality.
