Salva Ginard's portrait paintings, known for their abstract style and saturated colour palette, will be displayed alongside Nimrod Messeg's unique sculptures crafted solely from wrought iron using ancient forging techniques.

Salva Ginard is a contemporary Spanish artist known for his captivating and thought-provoking paintings. His works often explore themes of identity, memory, and the human condition.
 
One of the most striking features of Ginard's paintings is his use of color. He employs a bold and vivid palette, often using bright pinks, blues, and greens to create a sense of energy and vibrancy in his works. At the same time, he also uses more muted tones, such as grays and browns, to evoke a sense of nostalgia or introspection.
Ginard's paintings often feature human figures, either alone or in groups. These figures are rendered in a distinctive style that is at once realistic and slightly distorted, giving them a dreamlike quality. Many of his works also incorporate elements of nature, such as trees, flowers, and animals, which serve to heighten the sense of mystery and wonder in his paintings.
Overall, Salva Ginard's paintings are a testament to the power of art to evoke emotion and provoke thought. His use of color, form, and symbolism creates a rich and complex visual language that invites viewers to reflect on the mysteries of human experience.
Nimrod Messeg is a contemporary Israeli artist known for his innovative and captivating sculptures. His works often explore themes of identity, history, and memory.
One of the most striking features of Messeg's sculptures is his use of materials. His material of choice is iron, and he also uses a variety of techniques, such as casting, carving, and welding, to manipulate thmaterials and bring his visions to life.
Messeg's sculptures often incorporate elements of history and tradition, drawing on his Jewish heritage and the rich cultural legacy of the Middle East. For example, some of his works feature stylized Hebrew letters and symbols, while others reference ancient pottery or architectural forms. These references to the past serve to anchor his sculptures in a rich cultural context, while also exploring the complexities of identity and memory.
At the same time, Messeg's sculptures are also highly abstract and modern, pushing the boundaries of traditional sculpture and inviting viewers to see the world in new and exciting ways. His use of form and negative space creates dynamic, three-dimensional compositions that invite viewers to explore the sculptures from all angles.
