An American Trilogy - Ernesto Canovas

About

An art exhibition film for Halcyon Gallery, London presenting An American Trilogy, an inaugural solo exhibition by Spanish artist, Ernesto Cánovas.

The exhibition is titled after a song made popular by Elvis Presley in the 70's. Influenced by history, cinema and popular culture, Cánovas sources images from old and new media to produce evocative, semi-abstract paintings that capture a fleeting moment in time, a snapshot or flash of an event’s memory – the event remaining secondary in importance to that of the image which represents it.

The film seeks to reinforce the spirit of Americana and share the process of the artist. Show on the web and in the gallery.
