About the Item

Nerea Caos (1993) - the all-seeing fetus - Oil and collage on canvas Canvas size 40X50 cm. Frameless. Nerea Sánchez Castro, born in Ferrol, Galicia in 1993, an art student since high school, with constant private training in Art and Performance, studies Early Childhood Education and heads to Barcelona at the age of 21, where she studies Psychoanalysis at the School of Psychoanalysis of Barcelona, ​​a subject that always caught his attention and that he will later make of it his profession. He lives in Sitges, a place that inspires him when it comes to creating, thanks to the landscapes rich in colors, shapes, nature, as well as a unique light that the Mediterranean gives off, not without forgetting the cosmopolitan social environment, with a lot of fashion and art present. completely innovative in the place. Nerea continues with her training in Gestalt Theater Therapy where she is currently participating in Barcelona. His continuous passion for the unconscious and art has led him to merge the two disciplines into one and create works framed in the artistic current of abstract expressionism, which allows him to experiment with his conscious emotions and his unconscious sensations. He likes to compose from the dissociated forms of the human body and the mixture of textures and colors that play with contrast. “I live by creating and representing characters that facilitate the staging of everyday life. I work with people, with whom I develop my maximum potential, we find together the originality of each one, the reason to give light and self-awareness, while new works emerge in my moments of solitude, which my unconscious has saved to come out at unexpected moments. … I represent works that connect me with childhood and at the same time with the present, and that without a doubt, my personality finds its voice through there; Psychoanalysis, painting and performance complete me, I give the world my best part”. Her signature is CAOS, by Sánchez-Castro, Nerea CAOS, since as she herself says “The best ideas emerge from CHAOS, but only when you manage to get the apex of exquisiteness out of it, it is good to make mistakes, try and experiment, only then will different and original things emerge”.

  • "Manhattan Night Life"
    By Vaclav Vytlacil
    Located in Lambertville, NJ
    Jim’s of Lambertville is proud to offer this artwork by: Vaclav Vytlacil (1892-1984) He was born to Czechoslovakian parents in 1892 in New York City. Living in Chicago as a youth, he took classes at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, returning to New York when he was 20. From 1913 to 1916, he enjoyed a scholarship from the Art Students League, and worked with John C. Johansen (a portraitist whose expressive style resembled that of John Singer Sargent), and Anders Zorn. He accepted a teaching position at the Minneapolis School of Art in 1916, remaining there until 1921. This enabled him to travel to Europe to study Cézanne’s paintings and works of the Old Masters. He traveled to Paris, Prague, Dresden, Berlin, and Munich seeking the works of Titian, Cranach, Rembrandt, Veronese, and Holbein, which gave him new perspective. Vytlacil studied at the Royal Academy of Art in Munich, settling there in 1921. Fellow students were Ernest Thurn and Worth Ryder, who introduced him to famous abstractionist Hans Hofmann. He worked with Hofmann from about 1922 to 1926, as a student and teaching assistant. During the summer of 1928, after returning to the United States, Vytlacil gave lectures at the University of California, Berkeley, on modern European art. Soon thereafter, he became a member of the Art Students League faculty. After one year, he returned to Europe and successfully persuaded Hofmann to teach at the League as well. He spent about six years in Europe, studying the works of Matisse, Picasso, and Dufy. In 1935, he returned to New York and became a co-founder of the American Abstract Artists group in 1936. He later had teaching posts at Queens College in New York; the College of Arts and Crafts in Oakland, California; Black Mountain College in North Carolina; and the Art Students League. His paintings exhibit a clear inclination toward modernism. His still lives and interiors from the 1920s indicate an understanding of the art of Cézanne. In the 1930s, his works displayed two very different kinds of art at the same time. His cityscapes and landscapes combine Cubist-inspired spatial concerns with an expressionistic approach to line and color. Vytlacil also used old wood, metal, cork, and string in constructions, influenced by his friend and former student, Rupert Turnbull. He eventually ceased creating constructions as he considered them too limiting. The spatial challenges of painting were still his preference. During the 1940s and 1950s, his works indicated a sense of spontaneity not felt in his earlier work. He married Elizabeth Foster in Florence, Italy, in 1927 and they lived and worked in Positano, Italy for extended periods of time. Later on, they divided their time between homes in Sparkill, New York and Chilmark, Massachusetts, where Vyt, as he was affectionately called, taught at the Martha's Vineyard Art...
