Lorraine Lawson
"Conversations with Rauschenberg" Mixed Media Abstract Expressionist

2023

About the Item

"Conversations with Rauschenberg" is a 48" x 36" tribute to dialogue and interplay within the abstract expressionist realm, skillfully executed by Lorraine Lawson. The canvas bursts with a collage of textures and hues, with bold blocks of magenta, brown, orange, and earth tones creating a rich, visual language. Splatters of black invoke a sense of movement leading eyes to all corners of the canvas. This piece reflects a dynamic exchange, akin to Rauschenberg's own innovative spirit. Striking black scribbles add depth and narrative, making it an audacious and thought-provoking addition to any fine art collection. Perfect for contemporary interiors seeking a touch of avant-garde elegance. Lorraine Lawson's artistry lies at the intersection of the representational and the abstract, influenced by the transformative power of nature, culture, and architecture. Her work is an artistic tribute to the beauty of imperfection and the passage of time, drawing on the Japanese concept of Wabisabi to honor the beauty in the worn and broken. Lawson's abstract, textural paintings are rich with layers that evoke memories and a sense of place, achieved through innovative techniques with paint and encaustic mediums. Her practice involves a continual evolution of visual symbols and an exploration of techniques, all aimed at capturing the lyrical expressions of life's experiences. Her dedication to her craft is fueled by years of keen observation and a passion for expressing the profound narrative of life through her unique visual language. Original, 1-of-1. Available at the American Art Gallery, Carmel-by-the-Sea, California. Keywords: contemporary, abstract, expressionist, mixed media, textured, magenta, earth,

  • "Subliminal" Colorful Mixed Media Contemporary Abstract by Steven H. Rehfeld
    By Steven H. Rehfeld
    Located in Carmel, CA
    This 20" x 30" contemporary abstract mixed media piece by Steven Rehfeld is a captivating exploration of form, color, and texture. The composition features a harmonious blend of soft pastel hues — calming blues, delicate pinks, and mellow yellows — juxtaposed against more assertive tones of deep magenta, vibrant orange, and charcoal gray. The painting showcases Rehfeld's signature style of blending geometric shapes, notably triangles and circles, with freer, more organic brushstrokes. The added depth is achieved through the inclusion of mixed media elements: fragments of paper with faint sketches, scribbles, and translucent overlays create a multidimensional visual experience. The smoky, sinuous black mark towards the center adds a hint of dynamism, while the layered application of paint and paper produces a tactile richness, making the piece an engaging visual journey. Steven is now one of the top emerging artists in the U.S. His works are groundbreaking, bold, and imbued with unflinching disregard for painting conventions. Many works are in collections and museums in the U.S. Steven is also part of the 'Outsiders' school of art, originating in France in the 19th century. Also known as the Naïve movement, and was comprised of people with no art training at all, who suddenly started to paint. Many of them are from very challenging backgrounds. All they had was talent that had never before been tapped. In no time this movement became a significant art phenomenon and spread all over the world. His work, however, has branched out past the movement and his use of earth elements renders a basic and raw interpretation of his message. Original, 1-of-1. Shown at the American Art Gallery, Carmel-By-The-Sea, California. Keywords: colorful, mixed media, contemporary, abstract, expressionism, blue, pink, yellow, magenta, orange, grey, Steven H...
