Chris De Rubeis
Abstract metal artist creating luminous works through acid etching and bold gesture.
Chris De Rubeis has pioneered a distinctive approach—painting on metal with techniques involving acid etching that create depth and luminosity impossible on canvas. His abstracts glow with internal light, surfaces catching and transforming ambient illumination throughout the day.
Works like "Golden Mountain," "Brass Heaven," and "Secrets" showcase an artist working in genuine dialogue with his materials. The metal isn't merely a surface; it's a collaborator, responding to De Rubeis's interventions with effects neither artist nor medium could achieve alone.
For collectors seeking abstract work that transcends paint-on-canvas conventions, De Rubeis offers something technically unique and visually striking. These are paintings that change with the light—living works for living spaces.
