    Agora Gallery presents Valter Varderesian in elemental realms
    07.01.2010 12:54 GMT+04:00

    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ Chelsea's Agora Gallery will feature Sculptor,
    Valter Varderesian, in Elemental Realms. The exhibition is scheduled
    to run from February 02, 2010 through February 23, 2010.

    Valter Varderesian's whimsical sculptures arc, bevel, and twist
    towards the sky using elementary forms and sturdy architectural
    materials. Like the sculptures themselves, the philosophy behind the
    art remains open and audience engagement is encouraged by the artist.
    "I am creating a language that is free of self-conscious rules and
    language barriers of verbal communication," he explains. "The rules
    are human experience, personal memory, and visual connection."
    Varderesian works with timeless concepts and rudimentary symbols,
    within his oeuvre we find motifs representing time, growth,
    spirituality, and individualism. Created with either steel, bronze or
    gold Varderesian's characteristic building block is the line. Strips
    of metal cascade outward in graceful arches or balance precariously
    against another. The tension of forms reinforces the psychological
    pitch of his art. Beyond the outer simplicity lies potential for great
    interaction between art and audience. Varderesian teases our awareness
    much like the Buddha did during his flower sermon. Creating art is a
    daily pleasure for him since his childhood in Armenia. Valter
    Varderesian lives and works in Los Angeles.
