Eduard Angeli Cities on Water

On display through April 2, 2023

Eduard Angeli (b. Austria, 1942) began spending summers in Venice, Italy in 2002 and 2003 and in 2004 he went there to live. Before this he had lived, and painted, in Istanbul and more recently sojourned for a long period in St. Petersburg. Hence the title of this exhibition, with eighteen large works depicting motifs from these three cities.

Angeli is a landscape painter in his favored medium of charcoal. His motifs derive from but do not copy nature. They convey ‘ideas’, or realities beyond appearances which evoke hidden and mysterious sensations. His somber scenes, deprived of human beings, express a delicious, sentimental melancholy.

This exhibition is curated by Philip Rylands, President and CEO of The Society of the Four Arts, and organized by The Four Arts.
