Senen Ubiña
Mid-Century Modernist ‘Untitled’ Mixed Media Oil On Canvas & Lead Intaglio

circa 1981

About the Item

This ethereal and beautifully composed Mid-Century Modernist ‘Untitled’ Mixed Media Oil On Canvas & Lead Intaglio Painting by Sene Urbina, painted in Spain, C.1981. A large painting fitted with a custom recessed gallery frame in black ebonized walnut , the surface of the piece features a beautiful gradient of white to gray towards black descending across the surface and serving as the background from which a pyramidal structure rests, with diagonal white lines extending towards the corners of the painting, with black lines traveling upwards to frame a geometry around the bolder more primary forms. Horizontally crossing in front of the pyramid are bars of lead intaglio imbedded onto the surface of the painting, adding a remarkable material contrast and dimensionality to the piece. A surreal experience and highly geometric and versatile, this painting will style beautifully in a wide array of spaces and settings, from Mid-Century Modernist to Contemporary and Minimal Interiors. In Excellent Vintage Condition. Signed and dated 1981 by Senen Urbina on the bottom right corner of the canvas. Senen Ubiña, born in Spain in 1923 and deceased in 2012, was a distinguished contemporary artist celebrated for his vibrant and expressive paintings. His work often reflected a deep connection to his cultural heritage, skillfully blending traditional motifs with modern aesthetics. Ubiña's use of bold colors and dynamic compositions infused his pieces with unique energy, capturing both personal and universal themes.

"Up"
By Tom Holland
Located in New York, NY
This sophisiticated oil on canvas work was realized by the esteemed Bay Area artist Tom Holland circa 1961, and boasts a prestigious provenance from the Stanford Museum of Art. Combining elements of futurism, Art Brut and Art Naif, with inspiration from his Bay Area contemporaries (such as Richard Diebenkorn), Holland has achieved both critical and commercial success over the last five plus decades of his career. He is currently represented by galleries in Dallas, Santa Fe and San Francisco and his prints are exhibited by Crown Point Press in San Francisco and Cirrus Editions in Los Angeles. This piece represents an exceptional example of his early practice. It offers a wealth of organic and geometric forms in coffee and chocolate brown, rendered in thick impasto, with cobalt blue peaking out from beneath. There are two orbital forms in the lower half of the canvas painted in a burnt umber hue. With its sophisticated palette and painterly aesthetic, this piece would be a winning acquisition for any avid collector of first-rate Mid Century Modern fine art...
