Olympio: The Faces and the Brick Walls

bG Gallery announces a special limited time solo exhibition by the contemporary artist Olympio. From November 7th to 9th, the exhibition will showcase Olympio's latest body of work for a short time opportunity to see and acquire works before the artist begins his yearly exhibition circuit. 

Olympio creates abstract and figurative compositions that reflect his internal rhythms,   resulting in bold, expressive paintings. Working intuitively, the artist defines his work as the expression of his energy. Each piece is both everything and nothing; as simple as a heartbeat, as complex as a hurricane. Born in Lomé, Togo, the self-taught West-African artist spent time in Paris before moving to the United States. He currently lives and works in Los Angeles, California. Olympio is one of sixty people from across the world selected to be exhibited in "Out of the Fire," the 14th edition of the Dakar Biennale, one of Africa's oldest and largest exhibitions of contemporary art in Dakar, Senegal.
