Jonathan LeVine Gallery is pleased to present Novo Mundo, a solo exhibition featuring new works by Stephan Doitschinoff, the Brazilian street artist also known as Calma. CalmaNovo Mundo creates a unique visual language and style by embracing his eclectic influences. Themes in his work are inspired by an informed spiritual history and heritage, filtered through a distinctly urban point of view. The resulting imagery is rich in religious symbolism and often accompanied by Latin text as well as pichação (a style of graffiti writing, native to São Paolo).Having created a series of original paintings accompanied by site-specific installation pieces, (Portuguese for: New World) marks Calma’s first solo show in New York. Inspired by religious street festivals popular in Brazil, such as São João and Nosso Senhor dos Passos, the installations were constructed using a variety of materials such as paper flags, silk fabric and hand painted kites, creating an altar and emulating traditional processional decorations....The exhibition runs until the 20th of December; you can find more information, as well as see the pieces available, by clicking here. A book has also been released in conjunction with the show; see above for details, and order through this link.
