El Gato Chimney: Avian Enigmas 2025 Wall Calendar

Medieval storytelling comes face to face with 21st-century fantasy in the Surrealist art of El Gato Chimney. Inspired by everything from graffiti and steampunk to alchemy and spiritualism, the artist brings to life a mystical realm of brilliantly colored birds bearing the weight of social baggage. His introspective paintings are laced with clues and symbolism about society’s virtues and vices. Is the toucanet in The Hearth reminding viewers to keep the home fires burning, or is it sounding a silent alarm that our spiritual house is on fire? The 12 enigmatic paintings in this calendar encourage us to read between the lines, ask questions about the world at large, and celebrate the circle of life all throughout the year.
