Alberto Di Fabio, Untitled, 2006 Acrylic on canvas 78-11/16 x 131-7/8 inches (200 x 335 cm).

LONDON, ENGLAND.- Gagosian Gallery presents an exhibition of new paintings and works on paper by Alberto di Fabio, on view Saturday, 1 December 2007 – Thursday, 31 January 2008. Di Fabio's work merges the worlds of art and science with themes of biology, ecology and nature. This particular series of works explores structures of the human body and brain. Large-scale paintings pulsate with colourful organic shapes. The images are microscopic in their focus, implying biological diagrams, cellular structures, flora, eco systems, and pharmacological research. Di Fabio creates abstract paintings by overlapping layers of images abstracted from scientific and medical references and his own reflections, enlarging the particulars and adding details. His works on paper continue his dedication to organic form, subject, and process.
