Untitled Art, Miami Beach 2024

Luis Maluf Galeria de Arte is pleased to announce its participation in Untitled Art Miami Beach 2024, which takes place from 4 to 8 December. For this edition of the fair, Luis Maluf is presenting the work of two contemporary artists, whose practices explore the relationship between art, spirituality and the natural world in different ways.

Shizue Sakamoto, a Japanese-Brazilian artist, fuses painting and the study of music, creating gradients of colour with a precision that recalls the fluidity of a musical composition. Her research is immersed in the search for tonal harmony, and in her works, the transitions between colours happen almost imperceptibly, without noise. This fluidity not only reflects an aesthetic quest, but also a reflection on the silence that permeates music, particularly the violin, an instrument close to his heart. Silence, in this context, is not the absence of sound, but an essential presence that allows the viewer to pass through a portal – as if the canvas were the entrance to a silent but profound sensory experience. The Belgian oil paint used by Sakamoto amplifies this transition, allowing the colours to blend with softness and elegance, inviting the viewer into a sense of serenity and balance, where contemplation becomes an intimate and sensory experience.

In her practice, Dutch artist Janet Vollebregt explores the relationship between architecture and Brazilian crystals, creating a reflection on how the form and energy of these elements can promote well-being. Her research proposes that the connection between the materiality of architecture and the energy of crystals not only reflects an aesthetic, but establishes a sensory experience that favours balance between body, mind and environment. By creating these experiences, Vollebregt opens up a field for introspection, where space is not limited to its physical form, but becomes a means for the transcendence of body and mind.
