Alejandro Sintura Debuts International Solo Show at Galleri Magnus Karlsson
Alejandro Sintura's inaugural international solo exhibition, titled In Between Hidden and Almost Revealed, is now on display at Galleri Magnus Karlsson. This showcase includes a collection of new paintings that intertwine narrative and materiality. The exhibition's name is inspired by Brazilian writer Clarice Lispector's posthumous novel, A Breath of Life (1978), which played a significant role in Sintura's artistic journey. Lispector articulates a nearly unbearable beauty that exists "Between the hidden and the almost revealed," capturing a shimmering desperation where pain intertwines with beauty and apocalyptic joy. Sintura reflects this idea, aiming to merge form, material, and subject to illuminate the elusive. This exhibition signifies both Sintura's first solo presentation at the gallery and his debut international showcase.
