MARSDEN WOO GALLERY ASSOCIATED ARTIST NICHOLAS LEES WINS CERSALE PRIZE AT FAENZA BIENNALE

Congratulations to Marsden Woo Gallery associated artist Nicholas Lees, who has just been awarded a major prize at the Biennale in Faenza, Italy!

The Cersale Prize was granted to Four Leaning Vessels, and the jury's citation reads as follows, 'through his flawless technical perfection, the artist communicates a sensation of dematerialized  lightness which call to mind “trompe-l-oeil”  effects, which are dynamic and bright. The shape overcomes the archetypal of the vase and becomes motion, perception and intangible uncertainty.'
