Born in Yugoslavia in 1912, Gustav Likan early in life achieved international fame as an artist. He has long been noted in Europe for his portraits of royalty and heads of state. Since coming to America, his color genius caught fire and he emerged as one of the most important colorists of the twentieth century. Considered a prodigy, Likan won early acclaim in academic circles. So great was his grasp and talent, he flew through the ordinarily rigorous years of required draftsmanship and human figure drawing in half the usual time. Recognizing his extraordinary talents, the Munich Academy of Fine Arts bestowed the special honor of Master Student upon Likan. He was given his own private studio and model. Considering the orthodoxy and conservatism of this institution, the elevation of a mere boy to such a status stands as a tribute to genius discovered. Likan studied restoration under the best European masters of this rare art. This served to further develop his skills. Summers were spent in Holland, Italy and France...haunting the museums, sketching and painting 10 to 14 hours a day even during vacations. After earning his fame as a portrait artist, Likan immigrated to South America, where in 1948 he was hired by Eva Peron to paint murals for the country's churches, hospitals and schools, and then to the United States, arriving in Chicago in 1957. He was immediately appointed to the staff of the Chicago Academy of Fine Arts as an instructor, where he taught until 1967, and where his lushly colored canvases earned him the title "father of acrylics".

- Large Vibrant Surrealist Painting. Domestic Scene In Virtual LandscapeBy Natasha LelencoLocated in FISTERRA, ESShipped well packed in a roll, without frame. "The Nap (Bacchus' Siesta)" is an Artwork by Natasha Lelenco, a Spanish artist of Moldovan origin, created using acrylic on canvas. It depicts a domestic scene that combines figuration with geometric elements, residing somewhere between the pixelated world of digital imagery and allusions to the traditional ornamentation found in Eastern European canvases and tapestries. An intimate scene that bridges the gap between the virtual and physical worlds, illustrating the difficulty of finding a solid footing. The artist herself says this about the piece: "This work, humorously referred to as 'Bacchus' Siesta', originated as a portrait of my partner during the days of the 2020 pandemic lockdown. It was the first completed piece in the series titled 'New Jungles.' These works delve into themes of disorientation and virtuality, portraying characters who seem lost and absorbed. The degradation of the environment, the commodification of Earth's resources, and the displacement of communities due to consumerism all lead to disorganized societies where individuals become powerless subjects, struggling to find solid ground and a sense of place. 'Bacchus' Siesta' portrays a salon scene immersed in a simulated natural setting. The intricate floral details of the traditional Moldovan carpet...Category
