OPENING RECEPTION TOMORROW
SEPT 10, 5:30 PM - 7:30 PM
Amer Kobaslija | Road Signs

For Amer Kobaslija , the landscape becomes both stage and witness — a terrain where commerce, belief, desire, and spectacle coexist without hierarchy. The result is at once seductive and dissonant, humorous and unsettling, reflecting the layered contradictions embedded in our way of life.

The twelve artworks are painted on rectangular aluminum frames with rounded edges, acting as a parallel for the signage that is ubiquitous in contemporary road travel.

George Adams Gallery is pleased to present the upcoming exhibition.
AMER KOBASLIJA: ROAD SIGNS

During September and October, the George Adams Gallery will present an exhibition of new oil paintings by Amer Kobaslija. This, his tenth solo with the gallery, will feature twelve paintings reflecting the American Southeast and the state of Florida. Kobaslija has been developing a series of portraits as part of an extensive body of work on the state of Florida. He views the state as his adopted homeland and these paintings are a reflection of his appreciation of its culture and people, coupled with his concerns over the impending effects of climate change and the rapidly encroaching urban sprawl on natural environments.

Amer Kobašlija was born in Banja Luka, Bosnia and Herzegovina. In 1993, he fled the war in his homeland, first finding refuge in Nürnberg, Germany, and later moving to Düsseldorf to attend the Kunstakademie. In 1997, he immigrated to Florida, where he earned a BFA in painting and printmaking from Ringling College of Art and Design in Sarasota. He went on to complete an MFA at Montclair State University in New Jersey in 2003. Kobašlija teaches painting at University of Central Florida in Orlando. He is a recipient of the Joan Mitchel Foundation Grant and Pollock-Krasner Award.
