Exhibition - 'When Lightning Strikes' by Gabe Benzur
Friday, October 11, 2024 from 01:00pm to 07:00pm
The Invisible Dog Art Center
51 Bergen Street
Gabe Benzur’s meticulous oil paintings depict vibrant, supernatural landscapes that invite viewers to immerse themselves in otherworldly realms. Drawing inspiration from a quote by Seneca about Etruscan religion, each painting explores different facets of Etruscan mythology. Through imaginative interpretations of gods, sacred places, and the underworld, Benzur translates fragmented archaeological and historical records into visual spectacles. These works transport viewers into realms of superstition and primordial possibility, where the gap between known and unknown becomes a fertile ground for exploring color and belief.
