Artist Statement My current series of paintings depict fabricated American landscapes.
Inventing landscapes allow memories of places and events to be fictionalized. Alex Roulette’s Website. Anna madia; Oil 2014 Painting "The Queen" Peter Martensen | Bertrand Delacroix Gallery. Federico Infante | Bertrand Delacroix Gallery. Federico Infante received his BFA from Finis Terrae University (Santiago, Chile) in 2002 and graduated in Spring 2013 with his MFA in Illustration from the School of Visual Arts in New York. He was the recipient of the Uanlane Foundation Scholarship (2012), the Conicyt Scholarship (2009), and the Juan Downey Grant (2004). He has had several successful solo and group exhibitions in Chile. Since his introduction to BDG in Spring 2013, his work has been adopted into private collections across the US and internationally, including France, Belgium, Germany and Singapore.
His works, greatly inspired by the Chilean landscape, are unique in their juxtaposition of abstraction with figurative sections and detailed architectural images. From a hazy, unclear mist, a figure holding a musical instrument might emerge. From the darkness, we might see a set of stairs, rendered with incredible precision, leading into the unknown. François Bard | Bertrand Delacroix Gallery. Francois Bard attended the École Supérieure des Beaux-Arts de Paris and was selected for residency at the Casa Velázquez 1988-1990. He was a professor at the Ateliers des Beaux-Arts in Paris for 10 years. Bard’s work has been featured in major international art fairs, including Art Miami, the London Art Fair, Art Paris, FORM London, Art London and Art Karlsruhe Germany, and hangs in prestigious public and private collections around the world, including those of Ralph Lauren, Kit Kemp, Jackye and Curtis Finch, Jr. and Arkansas Arts Center–Museum of Art. Bard now divides his time between his Paris studio and his home in Burgundy.
For Bard, the simplest of all subjects, be it a shoe, a leg, a torso, a dog or a face, takes a dark and edgy turn. He manages to translate all his intimate emotion into a two dimensional oil painting; each work an endless exercise of composition, rhythm and struggle. Contemporary Figurative Artist Richard T Scott | Classical Realism | Commission Portrait Paintings. This House of Glass — Reuben Negron. Works. Lee Guk Hyun’s Return. Lee Guk Hyun is no stranger to EK. Lee was featured back in October 2011 for his wonderful oil on canvas paintings, landing him a spot on our TOP 100 of 2011.
Lee continues his series of figurative paintings of women that we’re familiar with, however this time around, he also explores a more abstract avenue for his newest pieces. Jonathan Matthews | Artwork. Sophie morisse; Oil 2014 Painting "toads and flowers" Stephen Cefalo | Artwork. Daniel Gonzalez Coves. Detour as a Route to Unity and Order. An art-scientific essay by Carol Strickland (Ph.D.), New York (2006) “’Tis the good reader that makes the good book,” according to the American writer Ralph Waldo Emerson. The same is true of good paintings. The more complex and multi-layered the painting – resistant to a quick, easy reading – the more it requires a vigilant responder.
After contemplation and reflection, the painting blossoms in the mind. This evocative quality makes encountering Aris Kalaizis’ paintings so exciting. It’s no wonder each painting opens up new worlds to the careful observer, for Kalaizis constructs his composition using multiple modalities. Kalaizis’ method begins with an inner vision – an initially somewhat vague idea which he later attempts to explore during the course of his work. His goal during this lengthy process is not to imitate the appearance of surface reality but to use form, color, and structure as a seedbed from which his abstract concept can grow.
As Kalaizis gradually imagines a story in his mind, it often requires figures to act out the narrative. Brianna Angelakis | Fine Artist - Home.
