Jose Maria Kaydeda
Ultima Cena (Last Supper)

Circa 1970

About the Item

This sophisticated mixed media painting was realized by the esteemed Spanish painter José María Kaydeda circa 1970. The work, entitled "Ultima Cena"- or the "Last Supper" in English- presents a piece of coffee colored wood (perhaps a reference to the table where Jesus and his disciples consumed their last meal) surrounded by a faint penumbra of wispy chalk hued brick pigment floating against a black background. The border of the piece has been painted in a dark crimson with a thick impasto, resembling tousled curls. The work represents an aesthetically compelling piece of Mid Century art by one of Spain's great artist's of the period that would be a winning addition to any style of interior. It comes presented in a custom gallery frame and is in excellent vintage condition. Born in 1920, José María Kaydeda spent much of his life painting and creating mixed media work in Barcelona and the surrounding area. His creative practice was largely influenced abstract expressionists including Jackson Pollock, Louise Bourgeois, Mark Rothko, and Barnett Newman. Spain, circa 1970 Dimensions: 51"H X 22.25"H

"Up"
By Tom Holland
Located in New York, NY
This sophisiticated oil on canvas work was realized by the esteemed Bay Area artist Tom Holland circa 1961, and boasts a prestigious provenance from the Stanford Museum of Art. Combining elements of futurism, Art Brut and Art Naif, with inspiration from his Bay Area contemporaries (such as Richard Diebenkorn), Holland has achieved both critical and commercial success over the last five plus decades of his career. He is currently represented by galleries in Dallas, Santa Fe and San Francisco and his prints are exhibited by Crown Point Press in San Francisco and Cirrus Editions in Los Angeles. This piece represents an exceptional example of his early practice. It offers a wealth of organic and geometric forms in coffee and chocolate brown, rendered in thick impasto, with cobalt blue peaking out from beneath. There are two orbital forms in the lower half of the canvas painted in a burnt umber hue. With its sophisticated palette and painterly aesthetic, this piece would be a winning acquisition for any avid collector of first-rate Mid Century Modern fine art...
