Born in 1917 in Copenhagen, Erik Ortvad was a surrealist painter and a founding member of the COBRA art movement.
COBRA was a European avant-garde movement active from 1948-1951. During the time of occupation of World War II, the Netherlands had been disconnected from the art world beyond its borders. COBRA was formed shortly thereafter. This international movement of artists who worked experimentally evolved from the criticisms of Western society and a common desire to break away from existing art movements, including "detested" naturalism and "sterile" abstraction. Experimentation was the symbol of an unfettered freedom, which, according to Constant, was ultimately embodied by children and the expressions of children.
Ortvad was a refugee in Sweden during WWII because of his communist sympathies and Jewish wife. He relocated to Kvänjarp, a village in Sweden, in 1962, living there until his death in 2008.

Poetic Chinese Landscape inspired by Calligraphy, abstract and conceptual style
By Gao Yi
Located in Kuala Lumpur, MY
Tracing 寻迹
Gao Yi is inspired by the essence of the words instead of the visible form of it. He attempts to find different meanings and expressions between the details of every motion of the brush. One could clearly see the clean and decisive brushstrokes of Chinese calligraphy being absorbed into layers of paint, textures and forms.
Following his expanded years in studying the knowledge of Chinese calligraphy art...

Sailing to the Sun, Reflection in the Water, Oil , Abstract Landscape, Nature
Located in Houston, TX
Sailing into the Sun is an abstract landscape painting. It is oil on canvas. It is gallery wrapped so there is no need for a frame.
On a summer morning in 1993 a 22 years old young came to Florida from a small old town in the central area of Cuba called Santa Clara. In his bag, he brought no more than two valuable things, his worn-out brushes and a great dream. The dream to one day become a professional artist in this new land that welcomed him with open arms.
Captivated by his love for the beauty of the Landscapes, his last works are what he sees even in the most common scenes: the close relationship of life and who we are with the natural world around us that asks us to respect and care for it.
Artist Statement:
" I like to scrutinize in the simple things, sometimes it is there where the lost painting is waiting to be found by the painter's eyes.
The landscape painting gives me the opportunity to establish a close relationship with the natural world and humbly capture on a canvas a little of its beauty listening to its voice that reminds us how valuable we are and how much we should love it".
