About the Item

Georges Ferrato Composition Oil on Canvas 57.5 x 44.5 in, 146 x 113 cm 1985 Signed at bottom left, signed dated and titled on the back Georges Ferrato (born in 1949 in Aix-en-Provence) is perfect harmony: a universal substance, a resource that we need to fill existence with poetry, peace and construction. The self-taught artist, pushed by his entourage, has been exhibiting for several decades. A "sculptor of light" for the past fifty years, it was the emotion of a landscape in Provence that made him move from expressionist figuration to abstraction. "If FERRATO's painted work imposed itself naturally, without media fracas or promotional operation, both in France and abroad, it is because he managed to share this inner music that Van Gogh speaks of in his letters." - Joseph Paul Schneider In 1980, when he arrived at abstraction, his line changed, a total freedom was established, and a new discovery emerged in his works. Colors, elements and materials will intertwine, it will be a new signature of the artist. His invigorating painting becomes food for the mind and heart.

  • Woman, 1986 - oil paint, 142x114 cm., framed
    By Damiano Bernard
    Located in Nice, FR
    Oil on canvas, signed back Bernard Damiano ne découvre sa ville natale, Coni, qu'en 1935, après neuf années d'émigration familiale avec son père Pietro (1895-1964), sa mère Rosa (née en 1897) et sa sœur Angela2, en Alsace, puis à Vallauris. En 1940, en même temps qu'il fait l'apprentissage du métier de taillage de la pierre dans l'atelier Revello à Coni, Bernard Damiano se lie, par des affinités artistiques et littéraires, d'une amitié durable avec le futur poète et linguiste Sergio Arneodo : plus tard, ils s'attacheront communément à la valorisation culturelle et spirituelle d'un village du Val Grana, Sancto-Lucio de Coumboscuro3. Trouvant un emploi de tailleur de pierre et de marbre à Tende (Alpes-Maritimes) en 1948 (c'est là qu'il rencontre son épouse Giselle2), puis d'ébéniste à Nice en 1951, il vit successivement à Nice, Villefranche-sur-Mer, Vallauris, puis de nouveau Nice où, dans un atelier situé dans un sous-sol de la rue Benoit Bunico4 dans le Vieux-Nice, il peint tout en étudiant les peintres de la Renaissance et les impressionnistes. Lors de sa première exposition personnelle (Nice 1958, suivie rapidement de participations à des salons), Bernard Damiano reçoit les encouragements du peintre niçois Sylvain Vigny (1904-1970) avec qui il restera en relations. Sa vie à Nice est interrompue par deux années à Paris (Bernard réside alors rue Saint-Vincent, au cœur de la vie montmartroise), coïncidant avec sa première exposition personnelle dans la capitale, de 1966 et 1968. Il obtient la nationalité française en octobre 1974 et se partage dès lors entre Nice et San Remo2. C'est précisément au cours de la décennie 1970 que la peinture de Bernard Damiano est dite s'éloignant d'une parenté avec Jean Dubuffet, l'Art brut ou le mouvement Cobra pour, dans « une touche nerveuse et une pâte triturée »5, puiser son style dans la suite de l'expressionnisme6. Cette proposition est toutefois énoncée avec réserve : à l'instar de l'espagnol Eduardo Pisano, Bernard n'a jamais daté ses œuvres, reprenant et retouchant même souvent un même tableau pendant plusieurs années. C'est peut-être dans l'usage du « trait-couleur et du flamboiement des chairs...
