Chris Ferrigno
'Celestial Elegance' by Chris Ferrigno - 1970's Vibrant Colorful Abstract Art

1971

About the Item

“Celestial Elegance” by Chris Ferrigno is a captivating 30" x 60" abstract oil painting that exemplifies the dynamism and emotive power of 1970s abstract art. This era was characterized by a fearless exploration of color and form, often yielding works with a strong sense of movement and an almost cosmic vitality. In this piece, Ferrigno orchestrates a bold symphony of hues, where deep blues and vivid reds dominate the canvas, evoking the vastness of space or the intensity of a musical composition. The painting’s energetic strokes and contrasting colors swirl together, creating a sense of depth and inviting the viewer into a dance of light and darkness. The use of color, layered and textured, portrays a universe of possibilities, an elegant chaos that is both ancient and timeless. The painting, true to its title, offers a glimpse into a celestial realm that is as much about the inner landscape of emotion as it is about outer space. With Frame: 34" x 64" x 2" About the Artist: Chris Ferrigno, born in San Francisco and a native of the city's vibrant artistic milieu, is an artist whose roots in creativity were nurtured from childhood. His intrinsic talent for art was cultivated under the tutelage of his uncle and developed through academic rigor and athletic discipline. A San Francisco State University graduate, Ferrigno's artistic evolution was shaped by the dichotomy of his mentor John Gutmann's abstract expressionist leanings and the era's favor for photorealism. Balancing a dual career in art and real estate, Ferrigno has spent five decades building a legacy that transcends the canvas. His properties are as much a testament to his creative spirit as his diverse body of artwork. With a profound respect for the masters of art and a personal standard that demands excellence, Chris Ferrigno continues to strive for a place among the pantheon of great artists, his life a rich tapestry of work, wisdom, and an unyielding passion for the arts. Original, one-of-a-kind. Represented by the American Art Gallery, Carmel-by-the-Sea, California.

  • Rising Tide
    By Tom Lieber
    Located in Miami, FL
    Tom Lieber is known for his dynamic abstract expressionist paintings, which focus on the human energy, experience, feelings, and processes of receiving and expressing. Lieber uses his powerful intuition to project the state of his inner being onto the canvas, enriching the paintings with strong emotions. Influenced by nature and meditations, Lieber believes that the body can be better equipped for creating than the mind, treating the act of painting as a full body experience with his spontaneous gestures and fearless approach to the canvas. The grace and shape of his bold lines appear over subtle neutral backgrounds with pockets of dense color and movement. His artworks are included in many prominent private and public art collections, including Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York, Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, Museum of Modern Art San Francisco (SFMoMA), San Francisco, Tate Modern, London, Oakland Museum of California, Oakland, Crocker Art Museum, Sacramento, and Museum of Contemporary Art Los...
