Deeper Meaning

A masterful grasp of the human form, alongside multi-layered metaphor, stunning composition and superb demonstrations of light and color—these are just a few of the elements that make up 33 Contemporary’s MASTERWORKS exhibition.

The show, which is held online and features the very best the gallery has to offer, will be available for viewing on Artsy.net from March 1 through December 31. And due to its virtual nature, 33 Contemporary will be adding works to it throughout the year.

Among the artists currently on the roster are Terry Strickland, Heather Brunetti, Erica Calardo, Amanda Greive, Judith Peck, Patricia Schappler, Amy Gibson, Courtney Minor, Michael Van Zeyl and Narelle Zeller.

“Psycho Circus does not tell a specific tale. It is rather a vivid impression, a specific frame of a story that doesn’t exist yet,” says Calardo. “I saw it in my mind very clearly. I know the scenario, but I ignore what happened. I was a spectator in my own mind. It depicts a lady lying on a sofa. The show is over. She’s done it. She danced, like every night, with the snake. She did her magic. Again. The red curtains are shut. The marquee is closed. Nobody is around but the night. The August sky is clear and cool. She lays awake yet she’s dreaming of that life she’s living, in that strange and never happened past.”
