The Explorer

About the Item

Abstract, oil on canvas. Subtle hues. Framed in natural wood. 2 inch deep. About the Artist: Nella was born, raised and educated in Italy in a family with a long heritage of visual artists, musicians and poets. She studied art history and foreign lan-guages, she speaks five languages. She is a full time artist and works on several canvases at once developing the imagery through a process of sur-face changes. Her art is a constant exploration of the relationship between man and its his-tory and becomes a spiritual and intimate journey. With intuition and experi-ence and never following a formula she brings together the alchemy of mate-rials, classical forms and the appearance of centuries of aging in all of her paintings, whether is an abstract, a fresco, a floral, a figurative or even her mixed media on paper. She works in series and mainly with oils and uses cold wax as a medium of-ten adding marble dust and pumice to create more texture and depth.

  • VWDWH RI LQWHJULWB (cryptography series)
    By Thomas Paul Raggio
    Located in New York, NY
    Abstract. Vibrant. Painting. About the Artist: "I contemplate every color, mark, and placement of the line to formulate what I call rhythmic velocities: relationships of color and motion that give life to the composition, creating a heartbeat. I am interested in the duality of math and design: through repetition, a line made of color becomes a rhythmic pattern. This concept is found when composing music, organic landscapes and architectural structures. By referencing these sources, my abstractions transcend their formal components, reaching beyond a minimalist canon. My work is composed of hard edges and thin lines set against an abstract field or a pictorial space. Each color has a quickness that is relative to the colors surrounding it; this gives my paintings visual movement and dislocates the viewer. Through linear and geometric forms, my paintings explore design and mathematical concepts found broadly throughout culture. They are improvised from a wide range of sources such as my conversations...

  • Crazy Golden
    By Petra Rös-Nickel
    Located in Los Angeles, CA
    Petra Rös-Nickel’s original paintings merge playful forms, bright colors, and architectural compositions in oil and mixed media on canvas. Her contemporary artworks contain rich textures and patterns, referencing popular European textile designs of the fifties and sixties. Rös-Nickel’s work translates the geometric and organic elements of an era that hoisted the flags of modernism and which, due to a trend to return to a rather retro style, has become topical once more. This 63-inch high by 10-inch wide contemporary oil painting is wired and ready to hang. This artwork is double wired and may be installed vertically or horizontally. The sides of this artwork are painted gold and it does not require framing. Free local Los Angeles area delivery. Affordable U.S. and global shipping available. A certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery is included. Petra was born 1963 in Wathlingen near Celle, Germany, and breaks completely new ground with her abstract forms of painting and expression. After studying fashion design at the professional school for clothing in Bremen, 1980, Petra Rös-Nickel changed her field of study to architecture in Eckernförde, 1982. She now lives in Hamburg, Germany. Preferring the creative aspects of the studies to the technical ones, the artist developed the basics of her painting, never denying the roots of applied design and soon ending in a refreshing, distinctive style. Petra Rös-Nickel experiments with form, along with the use of a technique that draws attention to the processes used in creating a painting. Essential is the color space presented in multiple layers that offers the beholder access to more profound color planes. These details, scratchings, and rubbings lead to various elements of tension, such as “patchwork” or harmonious-contemplative forms (“windows”) and “oscillating lines”. Rös-Nickel's modernist paintings develop an energetic impact on the space they‘re displayed in, conveying her joy of life and self-confidence. Her abstract geometric textured artworks have been exhibited and collected worldwide, including Germany, Belgium, USA, Canada, Singapore, and Hong Kong. Notable collectors include Chris Rock...

  • Pink, from the Inevitable Feeling Series, 2016
    By Misha Milovanovich
    Located in New York, NY
    Misha Milovanovich Pink from the Inevitable Feeling Series, 2016 Acrylic & oil pastel, ink, enamel and celulose paint on canvas. 72 x 59 cm Hovering between painting, drawing and watercolour sketches, her new work represents a form of personal expression that is less concerned with the impact and novelty of popular culture and more about the quiet uncovering of emotion. Her trademark organic forms are still present though now they are empathetic rather than explosively joyful. The colours are softer, somewhat washed out and hazy, as if half-perceived or remembered. The colour palette and the energy of the mark making reference to the now buried source material -  abstracted Hentai illustrations, Japanese manga-infused depictions of male dominance, rape and power fantasies. The never-satisfied, always distracted state in which this dislocated field of sexual aggression persists stands in for our instantly redundant, surface only culture- transactional, bullying and ephemeral.   Her paintings are sensorially rich and and yet muted, the masses of fleshy intersections and writhing calligraphy feel like they are moving out of the immediate present and floating up out of time.   They are soaked in the in nuances of early modernism- Klee, Miro and Matta. She explores emotive, expressionistic tender spaces in these lyrically rendered conceptual paintings - densely layered works that operate in the enigmatic gaps between rational structure and spontaneity. Misha also echoes Kandinsky and his sensuality of musical movement, evoking his concerns with the spiritual, all emerging naturally from the rich soil she has carefully laid down in her previous work. The language and texture of her materials are important to Misha who prepares her own pigment- paying great attention to form, surface and the moment-to moment physicality of her practice. Misha Milovanovich is a Belgrade-born artist living and working in London. Misha works across several mediums, from sculpture to painting and live art. Characterised by vivid colour, optical movement and energetic visual cadences, Misha's visual work fuses a diverse repertoire of images and forms. She often features discarded shards of consumerism - unloved icons of disposability and careless consumption. Misha's work is often a symphonic abstraction. Her colourful, densely layered works are held in a state of tension between order and chaos, rational structure and spontaneity. She combines depth and surface relief, orchestrating bold contrasts of form, texture and space in her pictures. An intimate colour palette of bodily fluids - red, pink, white, black, yellow and brown - animate the writhing forms and the refracted memories of cartoonish cultural production. A cultural polymath, Misha is constantly engaged in observing society and it’s distortions of desire, lust and attitudes to the body. Traditional techniques have been studied and absorbed and although her work is partly conceptual, it's execution always reflects these hard won technical abilities. Misha's main subject matter is emotion, so naturally her work is highly personal and biographical in ways that create a direct, emotional response from the viewer. Empathy and the universals of human experience - passion, nostalgia, desire and disgust are inescapable in her work. Misha is herself a ‘displaced’ person, having left Serbia for London in her late teens she still carries within her a ‘stranger’s perspective’ and perceives the world as an outsider, someone ever alert to the non-verbal subtleties of communication. Misha's artistic progenitors include her mentor Martin Kippenberger, Wassily Kandinsky and Phillip Guston as well as contemporary artists Gilbert and George, Keith Tyson, Robert Pruitt...
