We are OPEN today until 5pm for in person viewing of MMXX Anno Domini 20th Anniversary group exhibition featuring: Paulo Nimer Pjota (b. 1988 Brazil) Untitled mixed media on raw canvas, 20" x 18", 2009 A.D. NFS.... Pjota's debut gallery exhibit in the U.S. was in August 2009 at Anno Domini. About the Artist Paulo Nimer Pjota was born in Sao Jose do Rio Preto, Brazil in 1988.. He studied at the University Center of Fine Arts of São Paulo earning his Bachelor of Visual Arts. He is an artist of many mediums and prefers to work on large surfaces. Each canvas is treated as a sketchbook of sorts in where you find a collection of images with no particular placement but each image intentionally. Pjota suggests an open narrative in no particular order but the order in which the viewer's imagination takes. His work confronts the viewer with a string of juxtapositions. The archeological artifacts are compared with soda cans, still lifes overshadowed by war and popular culture meets what once was. #MMXXAD #streetart #fineart #subculture #artactivism #annodomini #gallery #20thanniversary
