From a distance, Arnold Livingstone’s collection almost looks like a series of computer-generated images. He uses acrylic on canvas to create what could be perceived as the color of sound or the path of an electric current as it travels through the air. An intense energy dwells in Livingstone’s work, as one unique visual component captures and guides the eye before colliding with another equally captivating element. Though Livingstone primarily relies on freedom of thought and random inspiration to guide his brush, there’s a specific science to his work. Throughout his collection, amorphous imagery is punctuated by precise, geometric patterns and shapes. In many of his pieces he uses color to create distinct planes and regions for the viewer to explore.
After graduating from the higher school of Fine Arts of Marseilles, Arnold Livingstone started a career in advertising graphics studying several disciplines. Though born in Paris, he currently lives and paints in Menton and is a founding member of Ambre International.
