 Addis Fine Art is pleased to announce the first European solo show by Dawit Adnew, inaugurating our first show of 2023 in our London gallery in February. 

 

Dawit Adnew's (b.1973) paintings conjure a sumptuous, dream-like idyll, where figures pose languorously in beautifully patterned dresses in gardens overflowing with luxuriant plants, flowers, and fruits. An atmosphere of perpetual calm prevails, a suggestion of twilight, where colour and pattern are sources of pure pleasure, as in Matisse or Gauguin.
