About the Item
A stunning palette appears on Neltje's Don't know Why, acrylic on canvas.
48 X 48
Neltje's signature rich colors appear in this acrylic on canvas
Vivid blasts of color is a trademark of Neltje.
Neither standard art descriptors nor derivative comparisons can properly describe Neltje’s work.
Neltje was born in New York City and raised in style on Long Island and a South Carolina plantation. At the age of 32, as a single mother of two, she moved from Park Avenue to a ranch in Wyoming in the shadows of the Big Horn Mountains. Since then she has become one of the West’s preeminent artists. Like the openness of the West, Neltje likes to do things on a big scale and many of her works are ten to twelve feet wide. She considers herself “an abstract expressionist painter.”
Her works are in a wide range of museums and private collections including The Smithsonian Institution, the Yellowstone Art Museum, the Buffalo Bill Historical Center and Museum and the IBM Corporation, along with solo exhibitions at the University of Wyoming and the University of Montana.

Urban Abstraction (ripped off posters) Italian 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.
