Alexis de Chaunac

Alexis de Chaunac, A Dance with Life & Death, is the artist first NYC Solo Exhibition in a gallery following the artist two recent Museum Exhibitions held in Mexico at the Pinacoteca Diego Rivera in Xalapa (2015) and at the Museo Iconografico del Quijote in Guanajuato (2014). The works on exhibit in A Dance with Life & Death are all works on paper set against a backdrop of intuitions and insights gleaned from embryology, anthropology, mythology and medicine. Creating hybrid works grounded in his own quest for identity (which spans New York City, Mexico and Paris), Alexis de Chaunac searches out artifacts from different cultures for archetypal links between the personal and the historical.
