About the Item

'Herculaneum ' , Southern Italy Historical Roman site. Mixed media piece circa 2005 : Mixed media on woven paper currently sited at 42cm x 55cm Aluminium glazed frame 53 x 72cm A study of the site and geographic area / archives left behind, what is preserved and an artist's expressive perception of events over time.. Herculaneum was nearer the coastline in Roman times , before Modern Napoli expansion.. Gradwell's work doesn't always attempt to be 'pretty' , Tensions and antagonism also his spell. This piece was painted after experiencing an exclusive 'Night Hours' tour of the site by ' candle ' /torchlight.. The surfaces , the faces , the structures, the light and dark. The ingrained tricks of light and surface appeal to me.. Gradwell: 'My paintings are not a backdrop , they exhist to entre each space in time and for thoughs that feel subtlety and gestures that are meaningful.. A hymnn/ meditation to where we are in relative time. Natural disasters are different to Human inflicted disasters . The 'slow burn', of life in some ways. Archetypal rememberance of the best forms are individual minds produce in this Ether, traces of what is left behind in a concentrated space beyond human levelling a space. . A sense of the irredeemable human experience. Mapping the Ethereal, beyond Nostgalic feelings. ' Painted en plien aire on site circa 2005. Signed original painting Mixed media on paper.

Untitled (Work on Paper) - vibrant, modernist abstract, mixed media on paper
By Otto Rogers
Located in Bloomfield, ON
The vibrant colours—burnt orange, turquoise, black-a touch of green and the dynamic form of this inspired composition is quintessentially Otto Rogers. The modernist artist was masterful in his use of acrylic paints and his work reflected the natural beauty that surrounded his country studio. Saskatchewan born Rogers (1935-2019) was recognized by the NY art critic, Clement Greenberg as a ‘big attack’ painter early in his career and stated that his artwork showed a ‘fullness of inspiration.’ A devout follower of the Baha’i faith, Rogers did not view art as simply a ‘decorative thing.’ “Nature is God...
