The poet that paints: Serious Play III
In the organizer's words:
Art exhibition by Ray Moore:
Hailing from Brookhaven, Mississippi, artist Ray Moore, known as The Poet That Paints, explores the interplay between seriousness and lightness in his art. In the exhibition "Serious Play III", Moore provides insights into his artistic concept. Inspired by music and his African-American roots, he uses a combination of figures, bright colors, lyrical fragments and powerful statements to create a visual language that transforms hip-hop into paintings. As a statement, "Serious Play" is playful and serious at the same time: Take life seriously but take it also playful!
Moore, who has lived in Munich since the 1990s and is self-taught, works not only in his main discipline, painting, but also in many other fields of art, including installation, digital art, music production, hip-hop and poetry. His works are deeply rooted in his experiences, in which a serious position can always be recognized. "You should feel my pictures and take a stance," says the artist.
The sampling of quotes from pop culture, history and politics is aimed at a comprehensive understanding of art: "Sometimes it is a look into an individual universe, but mostly a look into the universe that we all share and whose richness of facets the artist shows us."
The vernissage on Thursday, January 23 at 7.30 pm offers the opportunity to meet the artist in person and talk to him. You are very welcome!
