About the Item

2018 Charcoal on paper Signed and dated upper left Framed (matte black wooden frame, black raised float mount on foam core, UV anti-reflective glass) Frame size 95 x 70 x 3 cm Felix Dolah (b.1988) is a self-taught artist who lives and works in Mainz, central Germany. Felix Dolah's drawings are monochrome: mixed on paper, water and charcoal giving birth to a series of portraits of individuals, alone or grouped, whose gender is sometimes difficult to define. Those long limbs loosed like spider-threads, form the originality of these people with deformed features and expressionless faces. The characters seem to emerge from a world in pain where social cohesion reigns supreme. Rehabilitating the importance of the social entity, Felix Dolah raises the communication as unique means of survival. At the heart of his work, there is a humanity that is disintegrating, in a desperate quest for identity. The landscape is nonexistent: only the human counts. The ghostly shadows that populate the universe of Felix Dolah look timeless: they are the part of ourselves that rambles in an in-between, the part which was transformed, camouflaged, destroyed. It is probably for this reason that Felix Dolah leaves fingerprints on some of his drawings, giving the work an organic, carnal dimension. In this way, he recomposes an identity which diluted with water, tends to fade. Who are these disembodied bodies? The last upheavals of a world frozen in its inhumanity. Felix Dolah’s work has charmed countless small and big, private and famous collectors around the world. He has participated in numerous exhibitions in Europe and worldwide including the UK, the US, Germany, Russia, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Hong Kong, Singapore and Belgium.

    By Ben-Zion Weinman
    Located in Surfside, FL
    Watercolor painting of standing prophet or Rabbi, Judaica artwork Born in 1897, Ben-Zion Weinman celebrated his European Jewish heritage in his visual works as a sculptor, painter, and printmaker. Influenced by Spinoza, Knut Hamsun, and Wladyslaw Reymont, as well as Hebrew literature, Ben-Zion wrote poetry and essays that, like his visual work, attempt to reveal the deep “connection between man and the divine, and between man and earth.” An emigrant from the Ukraine, he came to the US in 1920. He wrote fairy tales and poems in Hebrew under the name Benzion Weinman, but when he began painting he dropped his last name and hyphenated his first, saying an artist needed only one name. Ben-Zion was a founding member of “The Ten: An Independent Group” The Ten” a 1930’s avant-garde group, Painted on anything handy. Ben-Zion often used cabinet doors (panels) in his work. Other members of group included Ilya Bolotowsky, Lee Gatch, Adolf Gottlieb...
