Presentation
Bertrand Delacroix Gallery is proud to present an exhibition of paintings by Ron Agam. Ron brings fresh, new elements to his work where he further examines the interaction of colors. He seeks to expose the harmony and effective balance of these varying colors with placement and scale.
From Ron's Friends...
“Several times a week Ron Agam emails me an image of a painting or drawing he is working on. What a joy to see the dynamic, colorful, energetic quality of the work! His singular demeanor, his constant pursuit of inventiveness, his dazzling juxtapositions and his creativity make us realize the importance of art in this age of uncertainty.”
– Richard Meier
“I am delighted to introduce this latest facet of Ron Agam’s creative work as an artist. In this new land of abstraction, Ron is an explorer who at once discovers and reveals. This kind of communication with the viewer is subtle and subjective. I invite you to look and to ponder.”

Artist Stament
My personal exploration in the world of painting is a testimony to my childhood where as a child, I was subjugated by the works of the masters of the early stages of geometric abstraction such as Elli llssitsky, Malevitch, Mondrian and later Joseph Albers just to name a few. Colors and Shapes were part of my life from the moment, I opened my eyes.
With the works presently exhibited at BDG Gallery, I can claim that my shapes, colors and forms are the expression of an artist that lives in the present, creates for the future with a deep respect for the past. My work is the result of constant research that uses traditional tools of imagination and creativity in confluence with the most advance forms of technology. I am at ease with both worlds and they both enable me to be the artist that I want to be, a constant ex- plorer in the world of space and colors.
