Art of the Americas – 2025

Verónica Di Toro, Buenos Aires, Argentina, (1974). Grid Series Nº32, 2020

Acrylic on canvas
160 x 160 cm

Over the years, Di Toro has perfected his pictorial technique; just like in music, there are those who stand out not only for their wide vocal range but also for the precision with which they manage the silences between sounds. What I always find interesting about his paintings is that surgical precision in the cut, with which he makes the force of one color against another visible.

For Joel Grossman art is a residue of humanity. A humanity that more than 20 thousand years ago gave testimony of its existence in the cave of Lascaux… Volume, appearance, spaciousness are synonyms of an aesthetic rooted in the traditions and rituals that connote culture.

Mixed technique on canvas
70 x 70 cm

Making use of her unending imagination, she includes every bit of her surroundings, reaching the dimension of dream worlds, opening to a spontaneous and candid spirituality. In her paintings we find all the strength of the colors from South America, which together with the graphic power, brings life to original pictorial settings where imaginary characters, traces, animals and symbols freely intermingle.
