Amauri Torezan Blends Geometric Abstraction and Retro-Futurism in South Florida Practice
Amauri Torezan, a Brazilian artist, employs geometric abstraction, organic shapes, and retro-futuristic aesthetics in his paintings. His artwork showcases a blend of vibrant colors and layered structures that produce an optical depth, embodying a balance between structure and fluidity. Drawing inspiration from abstract art, Brazilian modernism, and influential figures such as Oscar Niemeyer and Roberto Burle Marx, his prominent pieces include Parallax Effect, Cloud Nine, Tondolandia 03, Tondolandia 16, Thalassophile, Magic City, and Eudaimonia, all crafted in acrylic and oil on canvas. Torezan has displayed his art at the Conception Art Fair, taken part in the Global Code Project, and performed live painting at Art Wynwood.
