Maurice Soulet
'Female Nude', by Maurice Soulet, Oil Pastel on Paper

1982

About the Item

This 11.5" x 15.5" abstract female nude was painted by Maurice Soulet in 1982. In a landscape orientation, the abstracted nude figure lays horizontally within the composition. The figure's head is cut off by the top right edge of the work, resulting in only her nose and mouth being visible. The figure's blonde hair hides behind her head and neck. The body of the figure is rendered in a simple and loose manner; one arm is bent with the hand positioned over her presumed stomach, and the other arm seems to sort of cradle the side of her body with the hand placed against her thigh. The dimensions of the figure's body are defined by colorful shading; the bent arm and hand upon her stomach are shaded with red and orange, and the arm that cradles the side of her body is shaded with a vivid and thick application of yellow pastel. Her breasts are clearly defined, amplified by two black solid lines that define the curve of her breasts and then shaded with the same vivid yellow pastel that shaded her arm. Her stomach is rendered as a yellow-shaded circle with a yellow triangular shape just below it, defining the separation of her legs which also have a thick yellow line of shading. The background is ambiguous filled with an array of different colors in a variety of organic shapes, some blue, grey, orange and red. The piece is in a modern, gold wooden frame. Maurice Soulet (1926-1995)

'No Way Back #3, ' by Josette Simon-Gestin, Mixed Media Pastel Drawing
By Josette Simon-Gestin
Located in Oklahoma City, OK
In this 16" x 20" ink and pastel drawing on paper, Simon-Gestin depicts what appears to be a young woman isolated within the darkened archway of an architectural setting. The smiling face of a larger female figure looks on from the left margin of the work - a possible 'guardian' or 'protector' of the younger girl. The ground of geometric shapes surrounding the figures are filled with organic shapes and contouring lines in warm tones or dark line. This work is from Simon-Gestin's "No Way Back...

'Rona Wars: Cyberpunk Edition, ' by XVALA, Mixed Media Painting
By XVALA
Located in Oklahoma City, OK
This 61" x 44" mixed media painting by the artist XVALA is from his series 'Pandemic Collection: 6.' The painting was created with iridescent oil stick and spray paint on a screen print of a Star Wars poster. The abstracted "Basquiat-inspired" work depicts a silver robot with red eyes and large white teeth on a purple and blue background with the text 'cyber punk' in red at the bottom of the painting. 2020 twisted human reality in a number of ways no one could ever have predicted. XVALA pays tribute to this by melding the original Star Wars movie poster with the unexpected weirdness of the 21st Century. By combining a classic sci-fi villain with a modern symbol of literal Cyberpunk, XVALA shows the COVID-19 virus aimed straight toward the earth with a mission to destroy it. Exhibited during the Pandemic Paintings exhibition at the Meme Ranch August 7th, 2020. XVALA's art illuminates the hidden fallout spawned from our high tech Internet age. His' Fear Google' campaign exposed the decay of privacy and 'No Delete' used hacked nude celebrity photos to highlight loss of control over personal information. The artist has worked with trash from the homes of Mark Zuckerberg, Steve Jobs, and others, as well as dirt from the graves of George Orwell and Aldous Huxley. The dirt appears in the 'New World Order' collection as part of a pyramidal, 3D printed, living ant farm...
