About Sol Halabi
Biography
Sol Halabi paintings appear as dreamlike images in which fiction and reality meet, well-known tropes merge, meanings shift, past and present fuse. Time and memory always play a key role.
Her Romantic inclination towards the tragic, the sublime and the uncanny, aesthetic categories lingering between projection and perception, coherence and chaos is the reason that her works are classified as part of the New Romantic movement.
By referencing romanticism and symbolism, she creates intense personal moments masterfully created by informalism and classic realism by means of rules and omissions, acceptance and refusal, luring the viewer into their own significances.
Sol Halabi was born in 1977 in Córdoba, Argentina. She graduated in the School of Fine Arts “Figueroa Alcorta” and in the National University of Córdoba.
