Dana Gordon
Balancing Act (Abstract painting)

2012

About the Item

Oil on canvas - Unframed Note that this artwork will be sent rolled in a tube. This method is especially safe for large works. 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. Dana Gordon’s kaleidoscopic compositions are contemplative and evoke somewhat Orphic Cubism. His paintings have an overwhelming presence with their colour and structure, where gestural curves, unconstrained small pattern and form play together. Gordon is interested in the visual conversation between colours, shapes and lines, looking for the tension between the shape and the grid. He thinks of the shapes, adjoining shapes, and clusters of shapes as little paintings in themselves, within the larger whole painting. Dana Gordon is an American abstract painter whose work for many years has explored playful shapes, and vivid colors to display an exuberant abstraction. As a multidisciplinary artist, Gordon also writes about art, has designed sets for opera and dance, and, in the period 1968-78, made avant-garde films as well as paintings. He lives and works in New York City.

Teller 3
By Frank Arnold
Located in Fresno, CA
"Teller 3" Oil on Canvas presents a singular form and background in varying shades of green, blue, yellow and white and eart tones. 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...
