I'm a
creative artist in the art of painting, having my own studio in
Barcelona. I started painting and drawing since childhood. I studied
painting and graphic design and I have participated in many group
exhibitions. Dimitris Pavlopoulos primitive style paintings are inherently
figurative, yet their naive imagery is predominantly design orientated,
has an illustrative quality that is founded on an abstract painterly
aesthetic. This juxtaposition of abstraction and design is what makes
his pictures so compelling, his figures created as vessels to be filled
by textures, colors, and ideas, beautiful compositions that conspire to
feed our desire for aesthetically beautiful objects.
Dimitris Pavlopoulos repeats the same motifs in his paintings, yet each
picture is utterly different, his starting point the relationship
between painterly concepts such as texture, color, line, and form; This
play on ideas gives him space to explore how we see a painting, the
depth and nuance of material as well as the potential it has to
manipulate how we view the picture plane. Some of his figures look like
copper or collage-like cut outs, the rest more illustrative in nature.
Education:
School of Fine Arts-graphic designer
Exhibitions:
Gallery Jordi 2016 solo exhibition Bulevard Dels Anticuaris, Paseo de Gracia 55-57, Barcelona
