A substantial and dynamic work by this California Abstract painter evoking organic floral forms and comprising fluidly superimposed and adjacent, flowing layers of jade, coral and magenta set against an ivory field.
This listed California artist, author and musician lived and painted in Alameda and also had a distinguished career with the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra (1943-63). Additionally, he was a long-time clarinettist with the Woodwind Quartet. In his paintings, he used music as inspiration for his forms of abstraction, incorporating flowing sequences of form and a harmonically integrated palette.

We are pleased offer this major work from the artist's middle period.

- Urban Abstraction (ripped off posters) Italian Expressionist Painting on CanvasBy Andrea SpinelliLocated in Firenze, ITThe 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...Category
