Ryan Mendoza
At Long Last - Paint by Ryan Mendoza - 2009

2009

About the Item

At long last is a contemporary artwork realized by Ryan Mendoza in 2009. Oil painting on canvas. Hand signed and dated on the back. Provenance: Galleria Massimo Minini, Brescia Born in 1971 in New York, Mendoza's personal story is subsequently intertwined with the two extremes of Europe, Naples and Berlin, the two cities in which he has lived and worked up to now. In his works he represents complex theatricality, models anatomies, doses colours, calibrates lights, draws on a rich archive of memories, confusing ancient pictorial wisdom and contemporary risks. The artist's attention is particularly focused on portraits in which he carries out distortions and alterations: he exhibits perspective disproportions, reveals anatomical dissonances, manifests dystonias between the characters in the foreground and the backgrounds. His characters appear "possessed", it is no coincidence that the title of the 2010 solo show at the Muse d'Arte Contemporanea Donna Regina in Naples is "The possessed". A fundamental part of his inspiration comes from old photographs bought in flea markets and from which he borrows suggestions and imagery. In 2015 the artist published his first novel "Tutto è mio" at Bompiani, an autobiographical story that is an emotional, lucid and excruciating chronicle. In the last two years, the operation carried out by purchasing Rosa Parks' house, which Mendoza transported from the United States to Europe to exhibit first in Rotterdam and then in Berlin, has caused great uproar

  • Ross Bleckner Watercolor Figure Painting
    By Ross Bleckner
    Located in Larchmont, NY
    Ross Bleckner (American, b. 1949) Untitled, c. 1970 Watercolor on paper Sight size: 21 x 15 in. Framed: 31 2/3 x 25 3/4 in. Signed verso: Ross B/ho Ross Bleckner grew up in Hewlett, Long Island, New York; drawing all the time without being aware that other artists existed. He was the middle child between two sisters; his father manufactures electronic parts He attended New York University where Sol Lewitt, Chuck Close and others were his teachers. He graduated in 1972, then spent a year at the California Institute of Arts. His contacts in the next few years were very fortuitous; Sol Lewitt and Chuck Close, Carl Andre, David Salle, Julian Schnabel, etc. Bleckner is on the nervous side, beset by self-doubt, insomnia, and gloom. He is unpretentious, although he is bluntly handsome, with olive complexion, and a compact build. He is "10 percent that is superficial and 90 percent that has to do with the depths and that is threatened by living. He is a very complicated individual. He is a very, very morose, deeply feeling, hardworking artist- he takes a lot from within himself - but always, no matter how successful he is, he feels he is going to fall into those depths." 1 Bleckner first exhibited his work in New York in 1974. The following year he was given his first one-man show; he was included in the 1975 Whitney Biennial.. Since about 1985 has addressed many of his paintings to the subject of AIDS- both documenting it as a historical phenomenon and commemorating specific individuals who have died. Written and submitted by Jean Ershler Schatz, artist and researcher from Laguna Woods, California. Bio sourced from the Archives of askArt. Sources include: Ross Bleckner's Mood Indigo by Lisa Liebmann, in ARTnews, May 1993...

  • Before the Sun Goes Down: Figurative Photorealist Painting of a Woman in Water
    By Samantha French
    Located in Hudson, NY
    Horizontal figurative photo-realist painting of a woman with a red bikini floating in aqua blue pool water "Before the Sun Goes Down", painted by Hudson Valley artist, Samantha French, is 2019 gouache on paper, 24 x 30 inches unframed, 29.5 x 36 inches framed Custom blonde wood frame with anti-reflective plexi Excellent condition and ready to hang as is This photorealist figurative painting captures a peaceful aquatic scene of a woman leisurely floating in a crisp, sunlit blue pool. She stares at the viewer, wearing a red bikini; sun light reflects through the water onto her pale skin, complementing the painting's overall cool color palette. The scene is a snapshot of a relaxing summer day, making for a serene visual experience. The brush work is highly detailed with little texture (impasto) on the surface. The horizontal painting on canvas is currently unframed and has clean, white painted sides, so additional framing is optional. About the Artist: Born and raised in north central Minnesota, Samantha French graduated from the Minneapolis College of Art and Design in 2005. French’s current body of work explores the idea of escape, the tranquility and nostalgia for the lazy summer days of her childhood. The series is inspired by Samantha’s own reflections and memories of her childhood summers spent in the lakes of Northern Minnesota. French actively exhibits her paintings and is included in many private and public collections throughout the country while her work has garnered extensive international and national press. She is a full-time painter and keeps a studio in New York’s Hudson Valley. "My current body of work is focused on swimmers underwater and above. Using vague yet consuming memories from my childhood summers spent immersed in the tepid lakes of northern Minnesota, I attempt to recreate the quiet tranquility of water and nature; of days spent sinking and floating, still and peaceful. These paintings are a link to my home and continual search for the feeling of the sun on my face and warm summer days at the lake. They are my escape, a subtle reprieve from the day-to-day. At the same time, I am drawn to an idealistic time before my own, where swim caps and wool swimsuits were commonplace. This combination of memory, observation and photography has allowed me to preserve the transitory qualities of water and remembrance." Artist Resume: 2019 Winter Swim, Rubine Red...
