Chase Langford
Chroma X14

About the Item

Oil on canvas Chase Langford is an artist well-known for his geography-inspired paintings; the "Chroma" series is his investigation of color. "Imagine the effect of spending much of a lifetime intimately tracing coasts, rivers, highways and more. Inevitably the visual rhythms of geography largely created my visual sensibility, that is, my sense of what works or does not work visually." A brighter, beachier contribution to the Chroma series than some of the desert and earth tone palettes Langford enjoys, "Chroma X14" evokes the Aegean sea in aquatic ocean blues and soft dreamy greys. There is aqua, cobalt, and dove; the colors of the Mediterranean sea and stone, with a strong white foundation that gives an immediate burst of balanced, nuanced color among the striated brushwork which anchors Langfords measured, formal composition. Born in Pontiac, Michigan, Chase Langford studied cartography at UC Santa Barbara, then began his career working as a cartographer at UCLA. With his “Map Paintings” in the 1980’s, Langford began reinterpreting geography by reconfiguring selected features from maps. By transforming the familiar geographic shapes and forms in a flurry of abstract color and movement, the purpose of the series, as Langford notes, “was not to explain the geography of a place but rather to use the essence of geographic forms to re-express them in an entirely new way.” Langford’s works have been widely exhibited in solo and group exhibitions across the United States, and his work can be found in many corporate and public collections, in institutions such as the Keck School of Medicine at USC, the Michael & Susan Dell Foundation, Royal Caribbean Cruises, Monique Lhuillier, Inc., Caesar’s Palace, Dykema Grossett LLP, Sidley Austin LLP, Meacham Oppenheimer, Inc., and Park Hyatt Aviara, in addition to numerous notable private collections in North America, Europe, Japan, Hong Kong, and Australia, including those of Magic Johnson and the Saudi Royal Family, among others. He lives and works in Southern California.

Studio 1528
By Frank Arnold
Located in Fresno, CA
"Studio 1528" Oil on Canvas presents a bold visage in blues and white on a mixed field dominated by blues and green tone. 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...
