2013

About the Item

"12" is a composition of 12 oil paintings which each measure 5" X 5". They can be configured in several patterns. The 11 black paintings each have a distinctive painted surface. Sebastian Spreng, is a Miami-based artist born in Argentina, who at the early age of 17, had his first solo show at a gallery in Buenos Aires which was sold out at opening night. When he moved to Miami in 1987, the excess of sunshine made him change his approach to painting and his career blossomed. Since then, Spreng has participated in solo and group exhibitions from Boston to Seattle to Munich, Essen to Tokyo. His work is inspired on observations of everyday moments. As a hunter or seeker of color he experiments with colors that vibrate with life. "If I see a photograph or if I watch a movie and I see a color that I like, from that color, I start a new set of paintings," said Sebastian Spreng in an exclusive 2011 WUM interview. "The meaning of my art is a bridge to entice contemplation." In 2009 his work Daphne was selected for the book “Speak for the Trees” along 70 other artists including David Hockney, Christo, April Gornik, Yoko Ono, Julie Heffernan, Robert Longo, Mark Ryden, the Starn Brothers, etc.

    Rouge Noir 36 x 36 x 1 2/3 Oil on canvas Mimi Bates: As a child I loved to paint and draw on my bedroom walls. Inspired by the images in the heavily textured plaster surfaces, I created and composed from the spirit within. This is where my interest in art began. Today I occasionally draw and compose on my studio walls, creating studies, prior to painting on canvas, wood, metal paper or other surfaces. I am inspired by urban art: urban debris, found objects, sidewalk drawings and calligraphy...
