Bernard Nacion
Money Is The Drug Graphic Drawing by Bernard Nacion

Late 20th Century

About the Item

Bernard Nacion Untitled (Money Is The Drug), Late 20th Century Acrylic on artist board 15 x 13 in. A Surrealist representation, this piece shows a syringe shooting out liquid that becomes dollar bills. The astute comparison between the syringe and currency reinforces the idea that "money is a drug"; drugs are bad, and money is the root of all evil, so the artist cleverly places them in conversation together through composition. Bernard Nacion is a creative whose imaginative compositions take many different shapes. He guest starred on the Los Angeles Public-access television show "Let's Paint", which was started in 2002 by John Kilduff. He also worked in the art department for films including The House of Yes (1997) and A Dangerous Woman (1993). His subjects range from surrealist scenes to portraits and cartoon-styled animations.

    Antoniucci Volti (French, 1915-1989) Untitled, 1969 Red chalk on paper 11 x 14 3/4 in. Signed: Volti Sculptor, painter, and printmaker Antoniucci Volti was born in Albano, Italy, in 1915. His family lived in there until 1920 when the family moved to France to stay. Volti studied at the Ecole des Arts Decoratifs in Nice from 1928 to 1920. By 1932 the young artist had won a gold medal for two polychrome bas-reliefs before going to Paris, where he entered the studio of Jean Boucher at the Ecole Nationale des Beaux-Arts in Paris at the age of only fifteen. After serving in the Second World War, when he was interned as a prisoner of war in Bavaria, he returned in poor health to Paris, only to find his studio destroyed. From 1947 he showed work at various Paris Salons and, in 1954 and 1955 at the Brussels and Antwerp Biennales. In 1957 a retrospective of his work was organized at the Museum Rodin in Paris. He died in Paris in 1989 Works by Volti are in leading museums such as the Musee National d'Art Moderne, Paris. Antoniucci Volti is one of the most important Late Modern sculptors...
