| Tony is a New York City-born artist who was interviewed at the Joshua Liner gallery on January 26, 2012. His works can be seen at his web site: tonycuranaj.com "Resolve" at Joshua Liner Gallery in New York City was a group show celebrating the "other side" of contemporary art. Organized by Tony himself, the show featured 25 artists (22 painters, 2 sculptors, and 1 photographer) whose works celebrate classical art traditions and training. This is the first in a series of annual, artist-curated exhibitions scheduled for the gallery. "This exhibition," says Curanaj, "reflects a relatively narrow but varied slice of the art world, and presents it to an audience that may not be exposed to this segment of contemporary art practice. The title Resolve speaks of (the artists') determination and progression, qualities that imbue each of these works with beauty and technical virtuosity. From concept to execution, these contemporary masters... are completely engaged in the artist's process and an artistic direction that is unwavering, regardless of fashion or trend." |
