Opening Reception for Nikola Toplev

Visiting from Austria, Toplev will be at the gallery with his dramatically inviting artwork

When: Friday, May 23, 2008, 4 p.m. to 7 p.m.

Where: Pavlov Art Gallery, 439 Alisal Rd., Solvang.

Cost: Free

Age limit: Not available

Categories: Art (opening)

Description: His pure, clean palette and color combination is pleasing to the eye and brightens up any room. Toplev, originally from Macedonia, is currently prospering as an artist and gallery owner in Salzburg. In 2007, Toplev made a successful debut in the US with openings at the Pavlov Art Gallery and the Expression Gallery of Fine Art in Chicago. Toplev’s work produces atmosphere and perspective that is captivating. Evoking the same feelings as paintings by Marc Rothko, blocks of color shift from one shade to the next. Where Rothko paints abstractly, Toplev brings in subtle aspects of reality by adding a horizon line, detail of clouds or rivers to create a visual landscape from bold sections of color.
