About the Item

Franco Salas Borquez est né au Chili sur l’île de Chiloé en 1979. Insulaire de naissance, Franco Salas Borquez entretient un rapport étroit à la mer, puisque cet élément naturel s’est avéré être davantage qu’un paysage pour celui-ci. Issu d’une famille de marins qu’il a accompagné parfois en mer, il a fait l’expérience de la puissance des flots, dont la fascination autant que la crainte alimentent son désir de peinture. Il déclare : « J’étais fasciné par la peinture, et c’est comme peintre que je suis revenu à la mer. » Franco Salas Borquez considère la représentation de la mer comme un défis à relever sans cesse, il y dédie sa carrière mais il ne cherche pas toutefois à dévoiler la part de mystère que ces paysages renferment. Avec ses peintures, il parvient à dépasser le vertige réel dont on fait l’expérience en mer afin de créer un vertige d‘ordre esthétique dans sa pratique mais également au cours de la réception de ses œuvres. Franco Salas Borquez compare souvent le travail de peindre au jeu d’échec qu’il pratique : les mêmes éléments sont toujours présents, mais ils se jouent avec une infinité de possibilités.

Provenance: Deaccession of Hearst Art Gallery, St. Mary's College, Moraga, California Carl Barth was a German visual artist who was born in 1896. Carl Barth has had several gallery and museum exhibitions, including at the Galerie Remmert und Barth. Many works by the artist have been sold at auction, including 'Mythos' sold at Ketterer Kunst Munich 'Old Masters & Modern Art/ Marine Art ' in 2003.

Paul Getty Museum at the Getty Center, USA, Los Angeles Overview 2011, Galerie Remmert und Barth, Germany, Düsseldorf which included artists August Macke,Carl Barth, Conrad Felixmuller, George Grosz,Hannah Hoch, Oskar kokoschka and others CARL BARTH 1896 to 1976 The Rhine painter CARL BARTH has created a work rich in developmental stages that stretches from the 20s to the 70s of the last century. After late-Expressionist beginnings in the 20s, he created in the early 30s, probably the most-respected part of his work, those strictly built, color-sparing tempera images that are the New Objectivity and the Magic Realism assigned, Barth's paintings of the early 1930s seem to express the loneliness of man in the face of a colder and more threatening social situation. The constructivist rigor of these works is transformed in the American paintings of 1936 into a more painterly style with a richer modeling of the subject matter, without abandoning the theme: the images reflect the loneliness and emptiness of the not only American "way of life" - they became repeatedly compared to works by Edward Hopper. Select Exhibitions: 1925 First exhibition of watercolors and printmaking in Munich. Return to the Rhineland. Initially own studio in his parents' house in Haan. In the fall admission to study at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf. 1926 Exhibition with the group "The New West". 1927 First study trip to southern France (via Paris and Chartres).

  • Park Spring (Impressionistic Figurative Painting of Figures in a Park Landscape)
    By William Clutz
    Located in Hudson, NY
    Modern impressionist style figurative painting of a family in a colorful park landscape “Park Spring” painted by William Clutz in 1996 60 x 50 inches in a natural wood floater frame Wire backing, signed lower right This figurative oil on canvas painting was made in 1996 by William Clutz as part of a series of works called "Crossings". These paintings were a study of NYC dwellers engaging in the simple, daily activity of crossing the street. In this piece, Clutz captures a joyful moment of a mother and father walking in a sunlit park landscape with their young child. Bright sunlight radiates through lush fall foliage and fills the scene with a soft orange light. With broad, expressionistic brushstrokes, he discovers the extraordinary in the ordinary, by emphasizing the effects of sunlight on the human form. The painting is in excellent condition and is framed in a natural wood floater frame. More about the artist: In New York in the early 50's and 60's, abstract expressionism was the orthodox approach to art at the time. However, Clutz was committed to his personal style that focused on abstracted human figures within urban tableaux. Working in a context of artists who challenged abstract expressionism's popularity in New York, Clutz established himself as a significant proponent of abstract figuration. His paintings focus on human figures within the urban environment, often exposing the transfiguration of his subjects as they travel through the complex light of city streets or summer parks, as shown in two of his early works. Clutz's interest in working from direct observation of urban life was influenced by a long-standing interest in German Expressionism, as well as artists like Henri Matisse, Arshile Gorky, and Nicholas De Stael...
