About Beatrice Mandelman
Beatrice Mandelman was a pioneering abstract artist associated with the Taos Moderns. Born in New Jersey in 1912, she studied at the Newark School of Fine and Industrial Art, Rutgers University, and the Art Students League in New York, where she was influenced by Cubism and European modernism.
During the 1930s, Mandelman worked with the WPA (Works Progress Administration), mastering printmaking and developing early abstract techniques. In 1942, she and her husband, artist Louis Ribak, moved to Taos, New Mexico, where they played a key role in shaping the town’s modern art scene.
Mandelman’s work is celebrated for its bold color palettes, geometric forms, and expressive compositions. She once stated, “I broke all the rules. I use a primitive language—squares, circles, triangles, primitive colors—to create sophisticated art.” Her legacy lives on at the Harwood Museum in Taos, home to a significant collection of her work.

Urban Abstraction (ripped off posters) Italian Expressionist Painting on Canvas
By Andrea Spinelli
Located in Firenze, IT
The present work of art titled "Urban Abstraction (ripped off posters)" is part of a series of paintings that the artist composed in the 1980s and 1990s inspired by the observation of the urban reality of those years.
The artist take the cue from his walks in Florence, both in the center and in the suburbs, and by the observation of billboards and posters scattered throughout the city.
The mass of information, colors, messages and words were carried on the canvas with acrylic colors, ideally reconstructing the tears and overlaps of all the information and advertising contained on these huge sheets of paper that invade our cities.
The geometric lines are overlaid with jagged lines, overlaps and color dripping and also the choice in the color palette, with different shades of white, gray, rose, orange red and blue helps in rendering the result of the tears and ripped paper.
The result is a beautiful multicolored modern abstract canvas, both aesthetically and ethically, with many rich layers of color, texture and expression in which the artist leaves his own message.
The painting is housed in a simple modern white lacquer wood frame.
