Antonakos
Antonakos’s nonobjective art has a strong minimalist character and an architectural presence. In the 1960s, he was among the first to use neon as a new material in sculpture. Antonakos has developed a vocabulary based on the dynamic tension between complete and incomplete geometric forms as well as vibrant colors. The dynamic configurations of geometric planes create sensations of motions and depth. In the exhibition in Citronne, through the presentation of neon, paintings, drawings, and sculptures-models, we aim to investigate the intermedium dialogue of his work as well as the conceptual development of his ideas.
