Olivier Julia
Variation rythmique VI ed. 2/3 - geometric contemporary modern painting relief

2023

About the Item

Variation rythmique VI belongs to the most recent series of seven different small and medium size contemporary modern sculpture painting reliefs by French-Dutch artist Olivier Julia. The relief is made from oak wood and finished with a mixture of anthracite grey and bronze acrylic paint . This art work hangs slightly free from the back wall, creating a floating visual experience. Due to the bronze in the acrylic paint, changing ambient light causes changes in the intensity of the grey colour. Furthermore, different viewing angles result in different relief patterns. Each work in the Variation rythmique series comes in an edition of three and is signed by the artist on verso. Olivier Julia (1952, France) graduated with a BA in Graphic Art from the Rietveld Academy in Amsterdam, the city where he now has his studio. Originally his work consists of sober graphic art and monumental drawings, but in more recent years he has explored the dimensional possibilities of graphic art. He creates three-dimensional objects from wood, often painted in subdued colours that are characteristic of his earlier work: differentiated shades of grey and deep blacks. His work is focussed on the subtle interaction of closed versus open, of vertical versus horizontal and of light versus dark. His work is exhibited throughout Europe and is part of many renowned corporate and public collections. Olivier's work features in a number of publications and was also selected for the main Dutch abstract-geometric and constructivist art exhibition Symposion 2015.

    By Jason Middlebrook
    Located in Denver, CO
    Hudson, NY - based artist Jason Middlebrook. Middlebrook takes inspiration from lived experience and the natural world with his signature hardwood paintings. Familiar yet enigmatic, the sky in its various forms serves as muse in "Skies." Never the same twice, the sky is ever-changing, differing dramatically from place to place and throughout each day. At times seemingly benevolent and at others cruel, the vast sky is in constant diaphanous conversation with the landscape and activity below. Middlebrook’s signature “canvas” of polished cross...
