Description
Kristinn Nicolai - Untitled

Artist Biography:

Nicolai (Reykjavik, Iceland, 1964) lives and works between Beijing, Paris, Madrid and Reykjavik. He began his artistic training at an early age in the studio of his uncle, the painter Oddur Steinthórsson. 

His work is characterized by a deep black that appears empty, as well as by a sacrilegious and sacrificial eroticism. His symbolic conceptualism conveys a poetic vision of nature and its eternal laws. He held his first solo exhibition in Paris in 1980, "Hommage à Mishima". 

For Nicolai, the female body is not only a source of inspiration, but also a source of constant study and analysis, from the physical perspective to the symbolism represented by women at the beginning of life. With precise brush strokes, despite its abstract appearance, the artist's eye delves into the body he contemplates. There is still boldness in his aesthetic approach, daring in his Theme, moving away from any arbitrariness, to focus the gaze on disturbing figures, which produce both attraction and rejection, and a curious feeling in which the beauty of emptiness and nothingness predominates; a state of mind. 

With an excellent mastery of drawing that can be seen in the backgrounds of some of his works, Nicolai proposes veiled architectural constructions that represent urban spaces, oppressive and confined, which allow him to capture the human figure, especially that of man, in an unnatural and disproportionate size, in order to create suggestive and uncomfortable environments, attractive and repulsive at the same time.

 Since then his work has been exhibited in galleries and museums around the world.
