About the Item

Sometimes in the world of fine art something very special happens and this piece from the hilltop studio of master artist Sax Berlin is such a rarity. Berlin has furthered his exploration of automatic drawing into automatic painting. Working with lightning speed (he describes it as the speed of galloping wild horses) using a butterfly technique, flying across the canvas the painting "happens". There's no plausible explanation of how Berlin, at the height of his creativity, can knowingly create such a work, it happens, it's automatic. And the results are sheer depth and beauty inscribed forever on the canvas. Acrylic on canvas

Supervolt 25: Contemporary abstract painting by Luke Frost
By Luke Frost
Located in Brecon, Powys
The pristine surfaces of these architectonic paintings bear the hallmarks of American post-Abstraction and conceptual practice as they nod in the direction of Barnett Newman and the Minimalist sculptor Dan Flavin; but there the affinity with both artists ends. Up to ten layers of paint – dependent upon Luke Frost’s selection of colour or tone – result in a surface that recedes into sometimes deep, sometimes shallow, recessive space. These abstract paintings imply space rather than define it through their mass and surface. The juxtaposition of contrasting colour hints at a relationship with nature. Signed Excellent condition. Unframed Born 1976, son of artist anthony Frost and grandson of Sir Terry Frost. Monochromatic abstract artist, big canvas's. Numerous solo shows. From the Tate St Ives residence programme. 1976 Born Penzance, Cornwall 1994 – 1995 Foundation in Art and Design, Falmouth College of Arts 1995 – 1998 BA (HONS) Fine Art, Bath Solo Exhibitions 2013 ‘The Picture Room’, Newlyn Art...
