Eli Gur-Arie - Growth Engines
In Circle1 next opening, the gallery will show a series of works by the Israeli sculptor Eli Gur Arie, who creates fascinating techno-hybrid pieces that go beyond the boundaries of our comprehensible world.
“Eli Gur Arie’s works stretch the strangeness to the uttermost limit, and produces what appears to be at first glance sated objects, objects that celebrate a rich existence, that posses an aesthetic resilience, a hermetic visual economy, bounded by beauty made extreme, imprisoned in an appearance that nullifies every kind of consciousness: too beautiful to ask questions, too spectacular to be troubling. On this basis begins the strange negotiation that Gur Arie’s works conduct with the world."
