Art and Emotion

‘The artist who paints the emotions creates an enclosed world... the picture...which, like a book, has the same interest no matter where it happens to be.’ (Pierre Bonnard)

Art goes beyond the surface, the simplistic and one-dimensional. It is a portrait and exploration of emotion itself. With this selection of international artists Gabriel Fine Art explores the hidden depth to the mediums. Each individual artist depicts emotion within their work while triggering the emotion of the viewer. The artwork itself acts as a conversation of emotion between the artist and audience.

Gabriel Fine Art presents a selection of artists showing a variety of different styles, techniques and mediums. The connecting factor between each is the rich language of art and emotion. Bringing together a variety of opposing cultures and artwork, Gabriel Fine Art’s ‘Art and Emotion’ demonstrates the unifying nature of art.

The private view includes a performance by artist Christine Walters. Christine combines music and performance painting. To enhance the performance she embraces a sensual persona, bringing the art form away from just the painting but to the very act of painting itself and the physical, human involvement with it.
