About the Item
The Gift Of The Two Lines
Born on March 21, 1906, in Moscow, she arrived as an emigrant to Paris at the age of 15, bearing in her young experience, the weight of the most transforming period in Russian history.
Her work, deprived of artistic doctrines and conventionality, produced a language of episodic truths, storylines and narrations in its fullest and purest imagery. Russia is the backdrop, white, towering and submissive, a grand personification of nature, in which she lived, not created, but from which her spirit claimed the unrestrainable the creative force. Long accident recovery led her to painting.
Her debut in 1954 gave way to a recognition which would manifest in exhibitions in Paris and Europe and would permanently place her in the most comprehensive Lexicon of the World’s Naive Painters, published in 1976. In 1970s the City of Paris bought four of her works for the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art. Her work, deprived of artistic doctrines and conventionality, produced a language of episodic truths, storylines and narrations in its fullest and purest imagery. Her simplicity reflects her own internal surge of the heartfelt memories she so cherished, and the illumination Paris infused into her unique perspective as a woman and as a painter.
Some of major exhibitions of her works include:
Galerie de Haut Pave,
Galerie Romi’s “Les Primitifs d’Aujourd’hui,”
Galerie Charpentier’s “Festival des Arts”.

- Japan Japanese Garden by French naive outsider folk art primitive artist, 1975Located in Norwich, GBA perfect painting for lovers of Japan and those of primitive/naive outside art. It is a work by an internatoanlly noted extraordinary artist with an extraordinary life. Maurice LOIRAND (1922-2008) is born into a working class family in Brittany, near the Atlantic coast coast in France. He starts working as a skilled labourer in the shipyards aged 15. Aged 20, when the Nazis start to occupy the country, he joins the Resistance movement, where he meets and befriends thinkers, painters and poets. He is thus introduced to an artistic and intellectual universe far removed from the world of his origins. Loirand finds himself drawn to art, and soon dedicates all his free time to learn how to paint. Completely self taught, he soon begins to exhibit his pictures alongside high level artists. He moves to Paris in the 1950s, and - although still working as a technician - paints all night. He finally becomes a full time artist in 1968. International travel and a multitude of exhibitions follow. He exhibits in Brazil, Argentina, and with Jean Tiroche Gallery in New York, among others. His work is now shown alongside works by Leger, Matisse and Picasso. The Collector's Guild New York Ltd commissions Maurice Loirand for several works of lithographic art. Loirand discovers Japan in the early 1970s, and decides to stay for 18 years. He marries Kazué SHIMOTORI, a Japanese poet...Category

- French Folk Art Naive Oil Painting Workers in Vineyard, Les Vignes aux GitansLocated in Surfside, FLMax Savy Oil on canvas painting depicting a village scene with winemakers in a vineyard by artist Max Savy (French, b. 1918). Signed in the lower right. Frame measures 24.5 inches x 28 inches. canvas is 18 X 22 inches., Perfect for a wine cellar or cave. Max Savy (French, 1918-2010) painted scenes of everyday life in the French Corbieres region, which garnered much success during his life. Though the artist remained silent about his early life, it's known his father instilled in him a belief in the humanist socialism philosophy of French Socialist Party leader, Jean Jaures. In 1938, at age 20, he moved to Carcassonne to attend school. There, he married and settled into a teaching position, joining the French Resistance during World War II and earning the Cross of the Combatant. After the war, he created the work for which he is most admired. Max Savy paintings are part of France's heritage collection, and the artist became a knight of the National Order of Merit in 1973. Max Savy's paintings and artworks include scenes of peasants in the fields. Max Savy was active/lived in France. Max Savy is known for folk art style painting of village architecture, vintners, figures in landscape, wine makers, marine scenes. His work is similar in style to the naive, folk art paintings of Michel Delacroix and Fanch Ledan. This is quite similar to a work I had titled "Les Vignes Aux Gitans" (the gypsy grape vines) So i assume this is also a vineyard painting...Category
