Peter Brandes is a largely self-taught artist whose, frequently abstract, work incorporates themes from Ancient Greek mythology and Early Christianity. Brandes has also illustrated a number of thematically related books including Homer’s Iliad. In addition to his career as a fine artist, he is a celebrated ceramicist and has created a number of publicly-commissioned installations including the monumental 'Roskilde Jars' installation which now stands outside the main Roskilde Railway Station. His ceramic works, in particular, are inspired by the myths of ancient Greece. The artist has also created large-scale works in stained glass including for the Church at Nordkap and, in 1998, the Village of Hope Church in Los Angeles.

'Girl in Red' by Carlo Maria Mariani, 1959.
Guggenheim, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Rome, Academy of Fine Arts, Venice Biennale
-----
Signed upper right, 'C. Mariani' for Carlo Maria Mariani (Italian, 1931-2021) and dated 1959.
Framed dimensions: 22.5 x 1.5 x 17.5 inches
A native of Rome, Carlo Mariani first studied there at the Academy of Fine Arts where he was influenced by the prevailing styles of Hyper-Realism and Conceptualism. In 1994, he moved to New York City where he began to paint figural landscapes in a traditional, neo-classical style. The 1990s brought Mariani wide recognition and numerous honors, as he represented Italy three times at the Venice Biennale. Additionally, in 1998, he received the prestigious Antonio Feltrinelli Award for lifetime achievement in painting.
Mariani continues to be best known for his refined and painterly, Renaissance technique. He was a central figure in Rome’s avant-garde in the 1970s and is widely regarded as an influential forerunner of 1980's Postmodernism. He achieved an international reputation, beginning in the early 1980s, for his arcane and, often, controversial paintings...
