36X30 framed, 31X26.5 unframed. Ezio Gribaudo was born in Turin on January 10, 1929. He trained at the Accademia di Brera, Milan (1949–52), and attended the Faculty of Architecture at the Turin Politecnico (1950–52). As a young artist he travelled to Paris (1947), Moscow (1950) and Bucharest (1953). His first one-man show took place in 1953 at the Saletta Cristallo, Turin. In 1959 he held an important exhibition at La Bussola Gallery, Turin. That same year he joined the Fratelli Pozzo publishing house, working as an editor until 1974. In the early 1960s Gribaudo successfully entered several contests. In 1960 he met some of the members of the CoBrA group: Asger Jorn, Pierre Alechinsky and Karel Appel.In 1961 he visited New York, where he encountered Marcel Duchamp and Hans Hofmann, and Paris, befriending Bram van Velde and Samuel Beckett. In 1964 he met David Alfaro Siqueiros in Mexico. In the mid 1960s Gribaudo moved away from Informel aesthetics and drew closer to Nouveau Réalisme. In 1965 he took part in the Salon de Mai, Paris, and won an award at the IX Quadriennale Nazionale d’Arte, Rome. Moreover, he associated with Graham Sutherland and returned to Mexico and the United States. In 1966 he was awarded the Official Prize at the Venice Biennale and a year later he received an award at the São Paulo Biennale. In 1967 he also entered the Salón de Mayo at Havana, Cuba, where he collaborated with several personalities in the production of the painting Cuba Colectiva. In 1969 he visited London, becoming close friends with Henry Moore. In the following decades Gribaudo continued his extensive travels; his trips to China and Australia had a particularly lasting influence in his work. In 1971 Gribaudo exhibited at the Kunstverein, Gottingen. In 1974 he presented his work at the Marlborough Gallery, London, and at the Michaud Gallery, Florence, alongside David Hockney. In 1976 he designed his own studio in Turin and he persuaded Peggy Guggenheim to exhibit a selection of her works at the Galleria Civica d’Arte Moderna, Turin. In 1986 Gribaudo was given a retrospective at the Centro Incontri Avigdor, Turin. In 2003 he received the City of Turin’s Gold Medal.

He lives and works in Turin, Italy.

Large Modernist Abstract Painting (1of 2 available)
By Gregg Robinson
Located in Surfside, FL
Gregg Robinson, American (born 1948) "Cipher Bar 20" Oil on Canvasboard Panel. Artist signed, title and dated 1990 far right. Very minor rubbing to paint. Panel measures 15-1/4" H x 63-1/2" W, frame measures 24-1/4" H x 72-1/4" GREGG ROBINSON The universe of visual art encompasses a huge spectrum of motivation and means of expression. Examples range from the most syrupy sentimentality to extremes of moral and intellectual confrontation. For me, the creative process is, on the simplest level, an aesthetic puzzle. Elements of the puzzle include contrast, color, visual texture, graphic pattern, and in some recent work, a simple cryptic symbolism. I have never been particularly interested in lyric or pictorial content, and though some of my work does contain undeniable spatial illusion, even that tends to be a by-product rather than a goal of the primary pursuit: the balance of light and dark, pure color and organic neutrals, energy and calm, strong pattern and subtle field. Having grown up in an environment of contemporary architecture, I have always valued the classic modern synthesis of form and function exemplified by the Bauhaus movement of the early 20th century. Hence, the simplest solutions are often the most satisfying. Obviously, the modernist ideal of efficiency in form and function requires that method of execution be as well adapted to the aesthetic goal as the visual language itself. The media before you is the result of many years of experimentation that came to its current form in early 1992. I work with dry pigment over a plaster surface. My tools are broad knives, sponges, rags and masking. The finish is a high gloss alkyd resin. CORPORATE COLLECTIONS: Allstate Insurance NBC Productions Alaska...

Abstract Spanish Catalan Oil Painting Josep Guinovart from Joan Prats Gallery
By Josep Guinovart Bertrán
Located in Surfside, FL
Josep Guinovart (1927 –2007) was a Spanish Catalan painter most famous for his informalist or abstract expressionist work. In 1941, he began to work as a decorator. Three years later, he started his studies at the Escuela de Artes y Oficios de la Llotja (Art School of La Llotja) where he stayed until 1946. He first exhibited his work in 1948 in Galerías Syla in Barcelona. In 1951, he produced his first engravings entitled 'Homage to Federico García Lorca'. Two years later, he was awarded a grant from the French Institute to study in Paris for nine months. Here he discovered the cubist works of Henri Matisse and Pablo Picasso and travelled to Belgium, Holland and Germany. On his return to Barcelona and after a period working as an illustrator and set designer, around 1957 he began moving towards abstract art. His work is highly unconventional and usually on a large scale, using a wide range of materials, three-dimensional objects and organic substances such as eggshell, earth and straw. In 1962, he illustrated a book of poetry entitled Posies by Joan Salvat-Papasseit for the Ariel Editorial. He won many accolades for his work throughout the 1970s and 80s, including Spain's National Award for Plastic Arts in 1982. In 1994, a museum foundation dedicated to his art was inaugurated in Agramunt, his mother's birthplace to which he always felt a special attachment. In 2006 he designed the winery Mas Blanch i Jové in La Pobla de Cérvoles (Lleida) and created The Artists' Vineyard, a project intended to mix sculptures and other art works from different artists in the middle of a vineyard. The Artists' Vineyard was inaugurated after his death in 2010 with the unveiling of his sculpture The Countryside Organ: a music instrument, 6 meters height, for the wind to sing the vines. This winery also displays the 10.5 meters work In Vino Veritas...

20th Century Italian Acrylic Abstract Urban Expressionist Painting on Canvas
By Andrea Spinelli
Located in Firenze, IT
The present work of art titled "Urban Abstraction (ripped off posters)" is part of a series of paintings that the artist composed in the 1980s and 1990s inspired by the observation of the urban reality of those years. The artist take the cue from his walks in Florence, both in the center and in the suburbs, and by the observation of billboards and posters scattered throughout the city. The mass of information, colors, messages and words were carried on the canvas with acrylic colors, ideally reconstructing the tears and overlaps of all the information and advertising contained on these huge sheets of paper that invade our cities. The geometric lines are overlaid with jagged lines, overlaps and color dripping and also the choice in the color palette, with different shades of white, gray, rose, orange red and blue helps in rendering the result of the tears and ripped paper. The result is a beautiful multicolored modern abstract canvas, both aesthetically and ethically, with many rich layers of color, texture and expression in which the artist leaves his own message. The painting is housed in a simple modern white lacquer wood frame. Andrea Spinelli...
