"California Lifeguards, " Mid-Century Painting w/ Male Nude in Red, Yellow & Blue
About the Item
Saturated in bold primary colors -- deep red, brilliant yellow and sky blue -- this scene depicts a standing blond lifeguard with his surfboard to one side and a striped umbrella to the other, accompanied by a seated nude male figure topped with a floppy straw hat. In the distance is a sailboat in the water, its sail billowing in the same strong colors. The two men, both deeply tanned, have an impassive expression, looking past each other into the distance. The painting is signed, though the signature is difficult to discern (possibly Y. Bein). The painting is on a prepared canvas made by Fredrix, which continues today as the only American company making frames and prepared canvasses for artists. Dimensions include the 1-inch frame.

- Original Bernard Damiano Mid-Century Painting NudesBy Bernard DamianoLocated in Miami, FLOriginal expressionist painting by Bernardo Damiano (also known as Bernard Damiano). He was an Italian expressionist painter and sculptor born on January 10, 1926 in Coni (Piemonte), Italy and died in Nice, France on June 24, 2000. His classical art formation was at the Academia Albertina in Turino, Italy. His works are numerous and well known. It is precisely during the 1970s that Bernard Damiano's painting is said to have moved away from a relationship with Jean Dubuffet, the Art brut or the Cobra movement, in "a nervous touch and a triturated paste" to draw his style from the rest of Expressionism. This proposal is however stated with reserve: like the Spanish Eduardo Pisano...Category
