Simon Richard Halimi
Painter Simon Richard Halimi brings five decades of masterful skill to his art, creating works that evoke deep contemplation from the viewer. Vivid colors dance across his canvases in unusual, interwoven shapes that give a soulful dimension to each piece. Halimi works almost exclusively in “griotism,” an art style that serves as a visual representation of the West African griot, a traditional singer, poet and storyteller.
Halimi was born in Tunisia in 1943 and began painting in the 1960s. From 1968 to 1974, he served as a voluntary art ambassador and critic. He visited various houses and schools to encourage and instruct young painters. In 1974, he moved to Côte d’Ivoire.
His style developed over the years. Early in his career, he painted in a free, figurative flow, allowing scenes and colors to develop spontaneously. As his work expanded, his forms became more deliberate, with each shape contributing to a visual narrative.
In 2003, Halimi relocated from Africa to France, where he continues his vibrant painting practice.

- Phenomena Spectrum Guardian by Paul Jenkins, Abstract Expressionist artistBy Paul JenkinsLocated in London, GBPhenomena Spectrum Guardian by Paul Jenkins (1923 - 2012) Acrylic on canvas 76 x 101.5 cm (29 ⁷/₈ x 40 inches) Signed lower middle Paul Jenkins Executed in 1970 Provenance: Gallerie Iris Wazzau, Davos, Switzerland Private collection, Cologne, Germany Artist biography: Born at Kansas City in Missouri (USA), the multi-media artist, poet and playwright Paul Jenkins studied at the Kansas City Art Institute and the Art Students League in New York City. After his discharge from military service at the end of February 1946, he briefly studied playwriting with dramatist George McCalmon at the Carnegie Institute of Technology in Pittsburgh. Thereafter, Jenkins spent four years studying with Japanese American artist Yasuo Kuniyoshi in New York City. His first solo exhibitions were held at Studio Paul Facchetti in Paris in 1954 and the Martha Graham Gallery in New York City in 1956. Over the past thirty years, numerous retrospectives have been curated across the globe and Jenkins’ work can found in national collections from Europe and the United States to Israel, Australia and Japan. The diversity of his work springs from Jenkins’ wealth of eclectic influences. Some of his earliest works included what he called "interior landscapes" influenced by ancient natural forms like the caves he visited in the Ozark Mountains in his native-Missouri. Frequent student visits to the Frick Collection in New York fostered a love of the great masters: Bellini, Holbein, Vermeer, Rembrandt, de la Tour, Turner and Goya. In compliment, lingering student visits to the renowned Eastern collection of the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City evoked powerful sympathy for a monumental Chinese fresco...Category
