Artist Quotes - Deidre Adams

Deidre Adams, Facade III: Chrome Oxide

“Things in a state of change are my primary source of inspiration. Construction and demolition sites are rich with surfaces and textures, as well as ready-made compositions, waiting to be explored. Old buildings in various stages of decomposition, with peeling paint, layers of faded signage or graffiti, provide endless fascination.” - Deidre Adams

See new Deidre Adams work in her upcoming exhibition at Translations Gallery this November and December.

Translations Gallery and Modern Masters

Maximo Laura, Fiesta del Agua en Azul

Ever wish you could afford a fabulous Picasso or Andy Warhol original? They are honestly not far from your reach. Many contemporary artists pull their influences, content, or style from Modern Masters. Translations Gallery is always looking for contemporary art that relates to Modern Masters. Artist Maximo Laura creates vibrant and dynamic tapestries. His style can be compared to Picasso's cubist pieces or even Guernica. SA Schimmel Gold's pop portraits can be compared to those of Andy Warhol. You could have your own piece that is influenced by your favorite modern master right in your living room.
