The Technochoros gallery in Ioannina presents the solo exhibition of Costa Diu entitled “Retrospection” which opens on Saturday, April 27 at 13:00.
The important artist presents a set of works that highlight the importance of his painting. Panels of different units which, however, blend harmoniously into a single whole, creating a metaphysical environment within the space of the hall.
As Art Historian Venia Pastaka states, “The use of many different techniques in the works that create an interesting visual ensemble is impressive. In Du’s paintings anything can happen; realism interacts with Van Gogh’s post-impressionism in paintings where oversized poppies adorn a landscape strongly reminiscent of the French countryside. In other works the artist himself becomes a color and with his magical palette gives life to everything around him. A peculiar Lord of his own world.” while elsewhere he continues that Du’s painting “submits you with its subject and compels you to stand in front of it for a while. At a time when we are sinking more and more into deep darkness, the painting of Costa Diu is here to wake us up and remind us that the art that carries within it knowledge, has the power to activate and stimulate the mind as it is a carrier of ideas , of high ideals and goals.”
