Neon Works
(for the Vanguards to take home with them)
2022 - Present
Clay, Botanical, Gem Crushed Pigments, Oil, Acrylic, Charcoal and Spraypaint on Canvas
Ali Beletic’s Neon Works (For the Vanguards to Take Home with Them) were recently in Architectural Digest, Gotham NY and featured in both curator Olivia Kim’s curatorial as well as the curator of Sized Gallery Alexander May’s curatorial.
Conceptual cues from journalism, vanguardism, mythology, and primitivism are layered within this body of work. Each sculpture expands on themes from Beletic’s “Neon Primitivism” series, in which she juxtaposed symbolism from ancient cultures with features of modern art and music. The new neon pieces serve as punk, pop art gestures, lighting up rooms and demanding attention. Beletic fittingly titled the series “Neon Works (for the Vanguards to take home with them),” hoping the sculptures will define space for extroverts and partiers.
