About the Item

Part of Sax Berlin's Sfumato Pearl Series. The First String of Pearls contains 30 images on wood backed Italian slate created in 30 days. This is an early piece from Berlin's Second String of Pearls. Sax's stated intention is to create a number of pieces in his Pearl Series to equal the number of works in Picasso's Blue Series. The collection will also weigh a ton!! Each piece measures 24" X 24" and will require framing to hang.This amazing set of works references Durer and Caravaggio, particularly in his use of chiariscuro and tenebrism techniques. However, the series is considerably more spiritual and calls upon the ancient Chinese and Japanese philosophy of Wabi Sabi; a profound aesthetic consciousness that transcends appearance. To view the true essence of the work one must look beyond the apparent, one must look within. The Maestro - number 3 in the Second String of Pearls. Pulsating with a confidence borne from inner knowledge this beautiful slate resonates of ancient civilisations. It portrays the wisdom of ages and is a very special piece.

Green Sexy Snowboarder_Jane Maxwell, Female Figurative Collage, Mixed Media
By Jane Maxwell
Located in 326 N Coast Hwy. | Laguna Beach, CA
JANE MAXWELL "Green Sexy Snowboarder" Mixed Media with Resin on Panel 58" x 27" Jane Maxwell’s artwork approaches the female body with an affectionate and celebratory feminist perspective. Extending her focus on female empowerment and fashion to swimwear, Maxwell’s silhouettes emerge from the dimensional, textural, backgrounds clad in the vestiges of paper ephemera. Maintaining texture through layering and building up the surface, the enigmatic quality of the works is reiterated by Maxwell’s use of ads and billboard materials that reveal words and phrases that tease us with alluring allusions. The anonymous figures have a definitive flair and attitude, keeping us at a distance as they swim and sunbathe, while pulling us further into their multi-dimensional narratives. Jane Maxwell's current work largely focuses on women, body image and the feminine ideal. Her collages are deeply layered works, combining color, texture and text that surround and become the female figure. Maxwell's artistic voice grew out of a passion for vintage materials, modern fashion and design - mingled with a deep fascination for pop culture and female icons. In the late 1990's she studied mixed media at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston and at the Decordova Museum School in Lincoln, Massachusetts. She graduated with a BA in Literature from Middlebury College...
