"My family will be celebrating the holidays from our new weekend house for the first time this winter. We designed the space (with the marvelous Hendricks Churchill) to be a respite from NYC. As such, we were immediately drawn to soothing abstract art. Ali Beletic's serene but joyful work is a foundation for the aesthetic in our house. " - Eva Chen

"I love Ali's large scale paintings; the saturation grabs your eye and is visually interesting, which can add just the right pop to an otherwise neutral room. I think all of her heavily saturated paintings are very striking." - Ariel Orkin (designer to celebrities such as Lena Dunham and Sara Foster, as well as the headquarters for brands like Goop, Maisonette, and Minnow Swim, and contributing writer to Vogue, Covetuer, Architectural Digest, and Domino.

Ali’s work has been featured as part of Maya Erskine’s curatorial and in Vogue’s curatorial next to Judy Chicago, penned by the brilliant Arden Fanning Andrews & guest curator Tamara Johnson.

“When I saw how Tappan Collective chooses guest curators to put together collections of works, I obviously was drawn to Maya Erskine’s picks,” says Johnson of the Pen15 creator-producer-actor’s selects, including Alexis Arnold’s sold-out Crystallized Books series and Ali Beletic’s Material and the Sensual series.

*Parallels,* Ali’s first solo exhibition in Mexico, is now open and currently on view.
Her installation light environments, more subtle and peaceful, have been time based, and intend, to entice the audience into a stream of conscious peace of mind state, allowing the sense of space to expand to the reaches of the stars, from day into night and the vastness of the landscape around them, the clouds that send rain to earth, reflecting the vastness of space and light and perception and the boundaries of ourselves.

Ali’s work *Soapstone Fire Bowl* was recently featured in his LA Frieze week exhibition “Vessels” curated by Alexander May, celebrated by fair director Christine Messineo, as well as in Cultured Mag, Wallpaper and Interior Design Mag as shows not to miss during LA’s Frieze art week.

Beletic’s Neon Primitivism series is a natural extension of the artist’s commitment to primitivist ideology and ‘bringing the party and the fun’. This new series celebrates the canvas and painting as a form with the power to transfer primitivism, sensuality and emotion to a space in a modern return to Ab Ex style, mixing the ultra mattes of Mexican folk art by sourcing untraditional pigments and incorporating clays, botanical dyes and oils, and pointing to forms that enlight the viewer towards the multiple directions of cave paintings, the new york school, ceremonial body paints, line work, weathered artifacts, Charles Olsen’s Archaic Post Modern and pop art, celebrating the marriage of archaic and contemporary tradition, sensuality and artistic expression.

***“Party Wave”, “Rain” and “Form #1”***
Original Textile, Clay Painting and Neon Work by Ali

Ali’s work across multiple mediums has always been founded conceptually in both her nature and survival skills studies as well as her ‘bringing the party and the fun’. It is here that Ali’s conceptual work led naturally to the crossover that would lead her to explore paintings based on sensuality and dimension - the feeling, the experience and the space they create. It was here that she derived the process of working with clays, dried plant materials, botanical dyes, and paints made of finely crushed rare minerals and gems, to explore glowing mattes and chalky earthy textures. This follows in the tradition of her prior sculptural work (almost an artistic take on experimental archeology) which traces primitive technologies, and works with the experiential and the sensual - i.e. hand building mahogany and glass rain catchments, working with fire as a sculptural element, exploring artifact creation using primitive tools and techniques as a means to explore primitivism, lighting up a boulder strewn desert for invitees to walk through, and even building a surfboard from Tule reeds.

Her directness of emotion communicated through primal, rugged gestures, juxtaposed with an integration of ancient philosophies explores the thin line between symbolic icongraphy, anthropomorphic figuration, gestural abstraction and a modern pop sensibility. Her confident and rule shattering sensibility pulls on us to be 21st century rebels once again and to seek wildness, experience, humanity, and mythos.
