About the artist:

This is the first exhibition at Gallery 10 for George Iso. Iso is a Brazililan artist who is also a poet and a passionate traveler, living mostly in Paris and Rio de Janeiro. His abstracts often interact with the mood and light of the towns where he has lived and worked, like Paris, London, Barcelona, Stockholm and Rio.

This year, with exhibitions in London, Washington, and Rio, Iso is showing paintings that can be best defined as metaphors of time and space.

Art critic Ligia Canongia has said of his work,
"Iso's canvases construct a space with fragments, splinters, impulses of a subjective world-view. Pictorial space fluctuates and in it forms are suggested rather than defined. Colors are summoned to act as agents of this permanent mobility.
