Carolina Alotus
Known for active and energetic compositions, Carolina Alotus is a Swedish contemporary abstract painter whose works are luminous, fantastical arenas in which beauty and harmony negotiate fiercely with chaos. Self-taught, she embraced abstraction after working as a figurative painter specialized in lush, dreamlike, large-scale reproductions of flowers. Shutting off the mind chatter and creating from heart, the artist doesn’t consciously put symbolism into her paintings, despite occasional references to numbers, letters, or other recognizable imagery. Carolina Alotus was born in Malmo, grew up in the Goteborg region, eventually moving to Cyprus in 1990, where she still lives and works.

This work is exclusive to IdeelArt This artwork will be shipped rolled in a dent-resistant tube. This method is especially safe for large works, and provides lower shipping costs as well. Rolled works can be easily stretched (for canvas works, i.e. placed onto wooden stretcher bars) and/or framed by a local framer upon arrival. The paintings of Swedish born, Cyprus-based abstract painter Carolina Alotus are luminous, fantastical arenas in which beauty and harmony negotiate fiercely with chaos. Her compositions are active and energetic, sparking visual tension from unexpected relationships between colors, forms and textures, and from the feverish juxtaposition of seemingly disparate mediums and techniques. Her idiosyncratic visual language blends the traditions of Gestural Abstraction, Street Art, Art Brut, Action Painting, and Pop Art. Alotus has exhibited throughout Europe and in the United States, including at Gallery Kim Anstensen, Sweden; the Royal College of Art, Kensington, UK; Schombiurg Gallery, Los Angeles, USA; and at the Cyprus International Art Exhibition, Nicosia, Cyprus. Her work is included in numerous private collections, and was featured The Rebel Collection, the first Saatchi Art...Category

$2,814 Sale Price20% Off - "Sonata in Three Colors" - Contemporary Multimedia Abstract PaintingBy G. Campbell LymanLocated in New Orleans, LAArtist's statement: "Separate from the tar paintings I have been doing, I am creating a series of work in which I am channeling some of the things I have always loved about Cy Twombly along with qualities of a painting I saw in a local collection by a Cuban painter that I really admired and have thought about a lot since. Of course both share a graffiti quality; Twombly was the first to work with a sort of automatic drawing, beginning in the 1950s, and what he did opened up this new language for countless painters. You still see traces of it in so much contemporary art. Antoni Tapies has been a big influence on me as well, and you can see some of him in this work as well. I limited the color palette in this one as a sort of exercise in discipline, since it is easy to let color get away from you in a painting like this one. There are areas of three-dimensional paint that help flatten the picture plane and restrict the eye from reading depth into the painting; they function in the same way as Barnett Newman's 'zips' and Susan Rothenberg's lines across some of her horse images...Category
