Bob Camblin
Born in Oklahoma in 1928, Bob Camblin studied painting at the Kansas City Art Institute, earning an MFA in 1955. He taught at Rice University from 1967–73 with Joe Tate and Earl Staley, with whom he shared studio space. His influence was a constant undercurrent in the city’s art scene until he left in the early 1980s. Wary of interpretation, he assumed multiple artistic personas, signing himself Anonymous Bosch, Red Stick the Pirate and Mr. Peanut. Camblin passed away in 2010 in LaPlace, Louisiana.

Antoni Pitxot Battle of Constantine oil on board painting surrealist art
By Antoni Pitxot
Located in Barcelona, Barcelona
Title: Battle of Constantine
Artist: Antoni Pitxot i Soler (1934–2015)
Technique: Oil on board
Dimensions (unframed): 9 x 12.6 in
Dimensions (framed): 17.3 x 20.9 in

Description
Battle of Constantine is a symbolic and fragmented composition that showcases the dreamlike world so characteristic of Antoni Pitxot. Through an array of rock-like, anthropomorphic forms, the artist constructs a mythical and dramatic landscape that suggests an epic confrontation. The vivid pink sky and tactile textures reinforce the visual tension, evoking ruins, bodies, and reliefs that seem to emerge directly from the earth.
In this piece, Pitxot applies his meticulous technique and unmistakable visual language, where ambiguity is a tool for the viewer's imagination. The boundary between figure and landscape blurs, creating a poetic vision that feels both ancient and surreal.
About the Artist
Antoni Pitxot i Soler (1934–2015) was a prominent Catalan painter born in Figueres, Girona, into a family with a long artistic tradition.

Pitxot was a close friend and collaborator of Salvador Dalí. Their artistic connection led to Pitxot playing a key role in the creation of the Dalí Theatre-Museum in Figueres, where he later served as the museum's lifelong director. After Dalí’s death...
