About Armando Alemdar
Armando Alemdar Ara is an artist, educator and art theoretician. In 2001 Armando co-founded Neomodernism, an art movement that espouses spiritual and aesthetic values in art. Armando’s art is in many public and private collections in Europe and the USA. In 2009 the Inner Visions documentary on the artist’s work directed by Nicolas Laborie was premiered at GX Gallery, London. The documentary features an exclusive interview with Charles Ryder who for many years designed art exhibitions for the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Guggenheim Collection and the Frick Collection in New York, and in the UK, English Heritage and the National Trust.

Biography
Armando was born in Amsterdam, and as child moved to Amersfoort. There he saw, during the German occupation of the Netherlands, how the Nazis set up a "transition camp" for prisoners who were to be sent to concentration camps. The suffering of the victims and the cruelty of the Nazi camp guards, so near his home, influenced him for the rest of his life. After the liberation (1945), he studied art history at the University of Amsterdam.[2]
His first solo exhibition was at the Galerie Le Canard, Amsterdam, in 1954. At this time he also started to write poetry. He was influenced by the CoBrA art group, and made abstract drawings—with his left hand, in the dark. He was also influenced by Jean Dubuffet and Jean Fautrier, producing thickly impastoed paintings.
In 1958 he was one of the founding members of the Nederlandse Informele Groep (Informelen

Armando Gallop (sometimes written as Armando Gallup) (February 12, 1970 – December 17, 1996), who released material under his first name only, was an American house-music producer and DJ who was an early contributor to the development of acid house.[1][2]
Armando was born in Chicago to parents of Afro-Cuban descent. He was a star baseball player as a youngster before spinal meningitis put an end to his athletic aspirations. He became interested in dance music, organizing parties by age 16 and mixing on radio by age 17.[1] He and Mike Dunn founded Musique Records and Warehouse Records in 1988, the latter releasing Armando's singles "151" and "Land of Confusion". "Land of Confusion" became a transatlantic club hit in Chicago as well as in Britain, where it influenced their early acid-house scene.[1] He also produced Warehouse releases from Ron Trent, DJ Rush, and Robert Armani.
Instead of working on production, Armando spent most of the early 1990s with a residency at Chicago's n
