Fredric Snitzer Gallery presents John Millei ‘Interrogations’

Thursday, October 25th from 7-9pm enjoy the Opening Reception of John Millei‘s first solo exhibition with Fredric Snitzer Gallery ‘Interrogations‘. John Millei is an artist born in 1958 in Los Angeles. He currently lives and works in Pasadena, California. He works as an associate professor at the Faculty of Fine Arts in Pasadena, at the Claremont Graduate University and at the Southern California Institute of Architecture. His style oscilates between abstraction and expressionism. He uses mainly secondary and tertiary colors in a succession of gestural traits composing a thick layer of paint. Alternating between organic and geometric shapes and drawings, Millei’s work gathers the feelings of the observers. His pieces confronts the viewer with himself instead of a confrontation with his pieces. Contemplation leads to confusion. He creates confusion with paintings that are almost a prose.
