Alain Kirili to Discuss Crucifixion Themes with Father Paul Anel at New York Studio School

On October 2, 2013, Alain Kirili will participate in a dialogue with Father Paul Anel at the New York Studio School, focusing on the concept of crucifixion as depicted in both Kirili's art and that of Henri Matisse. This event is part of the "From the Horse's Mouth: Artists on Their Art This Season in New York" series. Kirili, known for his sculptural work, has recently produced a sculpture that ties into this theme. The conversation aims to delve into the artistic representation of religious symbols, linking Kirili's modern approach with Matisse's historical context. Organized by the New York Studio School and promoted by artcritical, the discussion will illuminate Kirili's artistic process and thematic interests, emphasizing the relationship between art and spirituality through crucifixion imagery.
