About the Item
Colorful contemporary Abstract Painting by Moroccan artist Abderrahman Banana. Mixed media on canvas. Offered framed.
Size: 25 x 20.5 inches (framed)
Signed front, lower right.
Abderraman Banana's painted symbols oscillate between figuration and abstraction. In its figurative state, the symbol holds anthropomorphic aspects (i.e., a hand or 'Khamsa,' eye, character...), zoomorphic aspects (such as fish), or natural ones (the sun, earth, sky, water, land...). It embraces the cosmic as if to recall ancient marriages between the visible and invisible, the terrestrial and celestial, human with the divine.
His symbols portray the world as an indecipherable enigma. Preceded by time and being science and technology and all its coding and decoding systems, the symbol remains the source from where everything is born. It is the 'originator' who resists amnesia and mystification. Consciously or not, Banana does not manipulate the symbol for ornamentation but uses it to express something more profound and exacting obscurely. He wants to interrogate and unveil illusions and false assumptions.
At the chromatic level, Banana's palette is limited to several hues surrounded by a dark outline drawn in the most natural pigment he cherishes, henna. His principal colors are blue, ochre, yellow, and light green. Sometimes, one notices the presence of white. Filling is a pretext to avoid the constraints of composition, while the curves, hues, and reductions are a nod to primitive art. Banana repeats and recycles some secular principles of composition that were already experimented with in popular arts (such as pottery) using repetition, alternation, inversion, and symmetry.

Domina - Pink, blue & yellow striped abstract painting
By Mark Zimmermann
Located in East Quogue, NY
Pink multicolor striped abstract painting by Mark Zimmermann - Acrylic and graphite on canvas in artist frame. Signed on back by the artist.
Mark Zimmermann's work is based on the fusion of meditative fields, architectonic structures and an organic gestural line that is one-part intentional and one-part accidental. Zimmermann clearly demonstrates his deftness of hand though labored bands of color, building and editing one band upon other, until the editing process renders compositions that combine both hard-edge and action-painting abstraction.
In discussing this work, the editor and writer, Larry Qualls noted,“...a majestic landscape narrative... they illuminate the nature of painting itself. In a sense what these paintings do is bring a synthesis of the conceptual and the realistic; it is as if there is the conflux of two grand traditions: the purely abstract and the purely objective.”
Mark Zimmermann has exhibited his paintings across the United States and abroad. His work is held in private and public collections such as JW Marriott Essex House...
