About the Item

ANTAL BIRO 1907-1990 Pozsony 1907-1990 Székesfehérvár (Hungarian) Title: Composition with Triangle and Circle, 1950 Technique: Original Signed and Dated Double Sided Oil Painting on Canvas size: 33.6 x 44.8 cm / 13.2 x 17.6 in Additional Information: Exhibited: "We Love You", Limoncello Gallery, London, 16th May to 20th June 2012. Provenance: The Bergman Collection, The Israel Museum Jerusalem. Charlotte Bergman, who died in Jerusalem on July 17 2003, one month before her 99th birthday, was unique among the museum's benefactors. She lived on the premises of the Israel Museum for three decades, and died there. When she made aliyah from New York to Israel in the 60's, the Belgian-born Bergman brought her collection of modern art with her and helped Jerusalem ex-mayor Teddy Kollek found the museum. As the childless widow of an English architect, she promised to bequeath her paintings, sculptures and ceramics by such 20th century masters as Marc Chagall, Raoul Dufy, Henry Moore and Pablo Picasso to the museum. In return, she asked to build a home within the campus, sharing its security. She wouldn't have to put her treasures in a vault. She could live with them and savor them with her friends. After her death the museum plans to keep the white, single-story house and its 200 art works intact. Although he would not put a figure on it, they are believed to be worth many millions of dollars. They include a portrait in oils of a young Charlotte Bergman by Dufy, a personal friend, and a set of small-format Henry Moore bronzes, among other works of Picasso, Braque and other great 20th century masters. Condition: Good condition. Surface dirt and some colour lose around the margins, otherwise in good condition. Note: This work will be shipped from Israel, unframed.

Fresh
By Frank Arnold
Located in Fresno, CA
“Fresh” is 60”x48” The impasto surface stages multiple shades of green enveloping the central figure. Frank Arnold’s paintings exhibit the highest quality materials for a truly archival piece, created to last generations. Frank Arnold is viewed as one of the foremost abstract figurative painters and sculptors of our time. He is a living master guided by a personal mission to “turn on a light in the human soul,” through his passionate creation of “Messengers” from his deeper mind connection with Carl Jung's archetypal images, the collective unconscious, and Jungian Synchronicity. These unconscious forms from his deeper mind resonate as personal messages of universal acceptance, reaching out to the viewer. Arnold has been honored as IAD Artist of the year 2018 by International Artist Day, and 2013 FAC Horizon Artist Award. He has exhibited his artwork in numerous galleries and museums, and is in collections worldwide. Arnold divides his working days between oil painting in San Jose del Cabo, Baja Sur...
