Anton Stoianov | Artist Bio and Art for Sale | Artspace

Favoring the personal and spiritual, shed away from intellectualism, Aton Stoianov uses reductive elements that ultimately transcend reality. The Bulgarian artist based in Berlin has produced large-scale abstract paintings without paint or pigment. At first glance, the work evokes minimalist subdued compositions until the tri-dimensionality of the medium, grids of variably worn cotton socks, reveals itself to an absurdly abject effect, leading to cognitive dissonance. His biomorphic paintings express affinity with repulsive bodies of work situated outside the symbolic order and strategically forced upon the viewer’s gaze in order to maintain boundaries between nature and society.

His work has been shown at Berlin’s Nice & Fit Gallery, Appartement, Forgotten Bar, Tape Modern, and Artnews Projects, among others, as well as at the Palais Wittgenstein in Vienna, Elektrohaus in Hamburg, Jikisiten Gallery in Nagoya, ReMap KM in Athens, and Kunstverein Arnsberg.
