Julia Yakobi is set to be featured at Agora Gallery with the opening of Beyond Borders: an Exhibition of Fine Art from Canada
Opening reception, Thursday night October 4, 2007

Julia Yakobi’s paintings are saturated with thick, splintered swaths of evocative color. Microscopic notes of plant cells, shells, Indian paintbrushes and dappled light-people - her images have references to the living world, while leaving any direct relation hidden. From Klimt, she takes a penchant for dramatic daubs of color amid thickly layered multichrome, and from Alfonse Mucha and Art Nouveau she has inherited a playful lightness. Her references to Gaudi are evident in her homage to him.
