Yuroz lovers have populated his canvases for 30 years as he expressed in different mediums and styles.   In this “Yuroz Lovers, the Bright and Bold Series”, painted with oil/acrylic on museum board, Yuroz releases select work from his vault with strong colors and fierce brushwork fainting traces of Fauvism.  Unafraid, Yuroz deploys opposite and analogous colors to express power and contrast or quiet and calm, while defining them with strong black divides.  This series shows off this artist’s understanding of color and light with his symbolism in his narratives and geometric stylistic elements.   “The chief function of color should be to serve expression. Color helps to express light, not the […]

Evolution of a moment – one capsule of time represented over a span of six years

The name Yuroz has been synonymous with love, romance and the celebration of the human spirit for over three decades.  The artist’s work is coveted by many collectors.  His compositions are always balanced with elements of contrast.  He leaves hints in his representations, starting with his symbolism with varied subtle mood changes by varying his compositions, deploying his lines, shades, and using colors differently, moving the focal point, and attenuating the emotional connection ever so slightly. If you ask a collector why he or she brought one of Yuroz’s paintings home, while the answers vary, the one common thread is the emotional connection the collector made with his work.  About […]

Romantic Summer Impasto Collection by Yuroz

Known for his cubist-styled narrative paintings that reveal both what our eyes see and what the mind knows, Yuroz is back romancing his viewers this summer with a textural symphony of canvases, massaging our psyche and emotions with layers of expressiveness. Mixing color right on the canvas with nothing but a single palette knife, manipulating light and shade with raised surface of undiluted paint, Yuroz masterfully conveys the warmth of an embrace, the sweetness of an offering, the tenderness of a caress, the blithe of togetherness and the tranquility of one’s trance. The Making of Lovers’ Embrace “Painting with a knife is fast-paced, exciting and fun but I still stick […]

Connecting the dots: The life of an artist and important bodies of work – Symbiosis by Yuroz as a case study

The context of an artist’s life leading up to or immediately prior to the creation of important artwork bear profound effect on his work.  At first glance of the Symbiosis Collection, one would think that Yuroz has totally departed from his prior style and subject matter. In fact, Yuroz revisits his main subject of human condition with a new angle, embracing his love for humanity with a new dimension and inventiveness.  What we did not know is that this journey traced back to over 20 years ago…
