Created in 2018, Untitled reflects Greg Deda’s early exploration of geometric abstraction and expressive colour balance. The work juxtaposes bold reds, blacks, and yellows against cooler tones of blue and grey, creating tension and rhythm within the composition. This piece embodies the foundations of Deda’s evolving visual language — where structure meets spontaneity — foreshadowing the dynamic style that would later define his red chip success.

Introducing
Greg Deda
"The visionary Canadian talent causing a major stir in the art world."
Born in Canada and classically trained in Europe, Greg Deda is a contemporary artist whose work bridges tradition and innovation. His career began in restoration, where he was sponsored by billionaire George Soros to restore centuries-old iconography paintings across Italy, applying 24-karat gold leaf to sacred works of art. This rare foundation instilled in him a deep respect for craftsmanship and an understanding of art’s timeless value.
For much of his life, Greg Deda remained a hidden master, a lifelong emerging artist whose technical brilliance was matched by quiet discipline. His work carries the influence of classical composition yet bursts with the emotion and experimentation of modern abstraction. When Aurum Fox discovered his work, it was clear that Greg Deda was not simply another name in the art world but a once-in-a-generation talent ready for global recognition.
Today, his pieces are exhibited exclusively through Aurum Fox Gallery in Chelsea, London, where collectors have already seen substantial returns on their early investments. Greg Deda has now reached red chip status, a level achieved by only a small percentage of artists worldwide, and his trajectory toward blue chip recognition is strong and undeniable. With each new exhibition, his reputation continues to grow, not only as an artist but as a symbol of what true focus and belief in one’s craft can achieve.
