Bosco Sodi
Bosco Sodi's work spans the continents of Central and North America, Europe and Asia, with studios in Mexico, New York City, Greece and Japan. Each of these destinations is inscribed in his work. Within the traditional categories, the work ranges from raw informel, colorism, art povera and land art. Humility to accept things as they are, appreciating simplicity and accepting imperfections are, in turn, some of the principles of Japanese philosophy, which stand in opposition to the Western ideal of beauty. For example, the desired surface according to wabi-sabi is earthy, imperfect and yet diverse. Bosco's paintings, which are based on the observation of nature, have just such textures. Sabi refers to beauty that can only be achieved through the natural processes inherent in the passage of time. Therefore, patience is the essential element of Sodi's painting.
