About the Item
Title: Woman with Guitar
Artist: Jordi Curós Ventura (1930–2017)

Work Description
The scene depicts a woman seated on a wicker chair, embracing a Spanish guitar in a warm interior rendered in intense tones dominated by pinks, ochres, and reds. The central figure is defined by a firm and expressive line that outlines the forms, blending influences from Cubism and modern figurative art. Beside her, a sculpted bust and a vase of flowers suggest an intimate and artistic environment. In the background, an open window reveals a bare tree, introducing a contrasting note of deep blue.
The underlying graphite sketch, visible beneath the paint, reveals a meticulous construction of the composition. The combination of media—watercolor, ink, gouache, and colored pencils—demonstrates an expressive pursuit that embraces gesture and chromatic emotion. The use of canvas board bearing the commercial “ART MASTER” stamp confirms its creation within the professional art materials circuit of its time.
Brief Biography of the Artist
Jordi Curós Ventura was born in Olot (Girona) in 1930 and passed away in 2017. He trained at the Escola d’Arts i Oficis in his hometown and later in Paris thanks to a scholarship from the Institut Français. He was a prominent figure in 20th-century Catalan painting. His artistic path evolved from expressionism and figuration to abstract informalism, eventually returning to a vibrant and dynamic figurative language. He regularly exhibited at Sala Parés in Barcelona and was awarded the prestigious Ynglada-Guillot Drawing Prize in 1967. His works are held in major public collections such as the MACBA and the Olot Museum.

Nemo Jantzen plays with focus, creating a sense of depth, thus bringing into question the act of voyeurism and the anticlimactic and revelatory nature of privacy.

"Ben-day Sophia 1" Mixed media, Acrylic, spray paint, pigmented ink 36x28 canvas
By Ceravolo
Located in Southampton, NY
"Benday Sophia 1" pays tribute to those paintings that became the trademark of Ceravolo's unique and trend setting style of painting. His work is collected worldwide and is in many important collections including, Sir Elton John, Rod Stewart, Hugh Hefner and Prince Jefri of Brunei to name only a few. In addition to those, his paintings came to popular attention when he was commissioned to create 5 large scale paintings for the lobby of The Palladium Theatre in New York City.
In this painting, Ceravolo has featured an image of his pop art painting of Sophia Loren, and combined it with a pattern of benday dots to create the basis of "Benday Sophia 1". He then paints his trademark brush strokes and textures on the canvas over the pop art portrait. Then, he paints the "floating" illusion that creates the 3d floating effect he is known for.
The Canvas measures 36x28".
