Alla Prima Moments: Direct Painting in North America

Alla Prima Moments focuses on the tradition of direct painting, where artists apply paint wet-on-wet to capture scenes with speed and intuition. The exhibition brings together works that emphasize spontaneity, visible brushwork, and emotional presence.

These paintings resist overworking, favoring instinct over precision. Landscapes, interiors, and abstract impressions reveal the artist’s hand in every stroke, creating a sense of immediacy and authenticity.

By highlighting this approach, the exhibition celebrates process as much as outcome. Viewers are invited to experience painting as an act of presence—where moments are captured, not refined.
