About the Item
Lovers in an Orchard, 2021
acrylic on canvas
27 9/16 H x 27 9/16 W in.
70 H x 70 W cm
The torrid sun, the infinite blue of the sea, the warmth of summer days, and ordinary people caught in moments of relaxation create an idyllic world far from the noise and anxiety of everyday life. These solar moments of typical life painted on small surfaces are unusual for the artist Alexandru Rădvan, whose work is mainly on large canvases.
About this new cycle of works, painted almost entirely in 2022, the artist confessed: "Most, if not all, of what I do has its driving force, its core, in the constant and often unconscious desire to be somewhere else than I am. Of being someone else? No, I'm pleased, I'm fine with "who I am", it's just that this "I" always wants to be somewhere else, always dreams of escapes, of a kind of peace and intensity that it doesn't find in the immediate reality..."

- "Ribbon" Extra-Large Contemporary Landscape Painting By American Martin HoffmanBy Martin HoffmanLocated in Frederiksberg C, DKIntroducing "Ribbon," an extraordinary painting from the "Jersey Meadow Series" by Martin Hoffman in the 1970s. From the 1970s onwards, Hoffman's career showcased a masterful combination of beautiful painting techniques and challenging subject matter. This contemporary painting depicts an abandoned landscape with a hypnotic blue plastic ribbon at its center. Hoffman's landscape creates an almost mesmerizing effect, where the subject matter of destruction and decay is presented poetically. The warm shades of grey with hints of blue, brown, and purple create a limited yet powerful palette that enhances the melancholic beauty of the painting. The painting measures 151cm x 202cm / 59.5in x 79.5in and is signed 'Martin Hoffman' on the reverse side of the canvas. It is titled 'Ribbon' and is dated '73.' Additionally, the artist specifies that the painting is part of the 'Jersey Meadow Series.' It is ready to hang and comes with a silver-painted frame. The condition of the painting is great, with hardly any signs of wear. The frame has a few scratches but is otherwise in good condition. Artist Bio: Martin Hoffman was a versatile artist and illustrator, mostly known for his paintings. He was a self-taught painter and a gifted drummer who had worked as an art director for the Miami News, Graphic Arts Inc., and Steiner & Wall Advertising. In 1973, Martin Hoffman landed his first solo exhibition at the OK Harris...Category
