About the Item
Blind Heads, mixed media painting
Tabo Toral, Panamanian (1950 - ) Born Boquete, Chiriquí. Panamanian painter.
Studied plastic arts in the United States between 1969-1970 at The Maryland College of Art in Baltimore and in Canada between 1971-72 at The Nova Scotia College of Art. He finally moved to Ciudad de Panama where, between 1973-1976, he studied journalism at the University of Panama.
With a unique style dominated by the vividness of color, the compositional quality and a complex texture that arises from the excess of pictorial matter, Toral has had individual exhibitions in places like New York, Switzerland, Canada, Panama, Bogota, etc. Likewise, he has participated in international collective exhibitions such as Contemporary Panama; Panamanian art Today II; Mesoamerican Presence; and in Biennials as the 1st Biennial of Painting of the Central American Isthmus; Biennial of Graphic Arts of the Caribbean and the Biennale of Venezia.
His works are part of permanent collections of museums and institutions such as the MAC of Panama, the Library of the City of New York, Museum of Modern Art of Bogotá, World Bank of Washington, Museum of Contemporary Art of León, Nicaragua, etc. His work bears a similarity to the 1980's work of the Memphis Milano group. Ettore Sottsass, Peter Shire, and the Downtown NYC artists Mark Kostabi, and Kenny Scharf. Tabo Toral, lived through the events of January 9, 1964 and the historical division of the country through the Pre-treated Canal, intuitively celebrated the ten years of the creation of the Panama Canal Authority by painting his first works of the extensive series that he would title It's not a ship in the Canal.
These boats, whose initial silhouette I confused with sketches of pre-Columbian arrows sketched in a carmine hue, were transformed, through their unique style, based on mathematical formulas, into images recognizable as ships. These present a prow created by an inverted triangle and a bridge constructed with a horizontal rectangle, divided into four triangular shapes. The figure of the boat thus constituted is anchored in parallel pigment bands that represent the sea initially and the waters of the locks in later versions.
Tabo Toral studied at the Maryland Institute College of Art in Baltimore in 1969 and at the Nova Scotia College of Art in Halifax from 1969 to 1971 before completing his education from 1971 to 1976 at the Escuela de Comunicación Social of the Universidad de Panamá.
His first works were delicate and anecdotal drawings and etchings of mysterious, fairy-tale characters in fanciful surroundings. From the late 1970s he produced brightly colored abstract paintings with gridlike substructures based on esoteric geometric relationships and inspired by Eastern philosophies; they were usually titled after the date on which they were finished.
Toral moved to the USA in the early 1980s, where he changed to a figurative, neo-expressionist style and produced murals of semi-mechanical figures influenced by graffiti art. After returning to Panama in 1994, Toral explored new territory by combining the abstract geometric style of his earlier works with figurative elements, often human figures such as aborigines or bound women.

Patrick LoCicero was born in Youngstown, Ohio, in 1959. He attended Youngstown State University, Ohio, and the Columbus College of Art and Design. He completed a B.F.A. at Ohio State University in 1982 and an M.F.A. at the San Francisco Art Institute in 1986. His paintings, installations, prints, and multimedia work have been shown in California, Pennsylvania, and Ohio. LoCicero's richly layered imagery is characterized by unusual juxtapositions of everyday objects and classical motifs, which play with the viewer's perception of materials and subjects. LoCicero’s assemblage paintings combine collage with painting. The overlap and collage elements relate directly to the images he depicts, guiding him in his choice of subjects, and come from a variety of sources including the Kama Sutra, antique children’s books, letters and journals. His still life paintings resonate due to the contrast the artist sets up between the collaged surface and the painted surface, as well as the play between the actual shallow space and implied deep space. Patrick specializes in creating mixed-media collages that tell stories. Collage paintings inventively reinterpret the collage technique that developed during the Cubist Dada era, and he reinvigorates one of the most important modes of expression in the art of the 20th Century.

PAINT Abstract Belgian Contemporary Oil Painting Ellen De Meutter Woman Artist
Located in Surfside, FL
Ellen De Meutter
Paint 2, 2007
Acrylic, ink and oil on canvas
31.5 x 23.6 in (80.0 x 59.9 cm)
Provenance: Secrets & Lies show at her American gallery Roberts & Tilton, LA in 2007
Ellen De Meutter (1981) teaches painting at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts of Antwerp. In 2006-2007 she followed the HISK programme in Ghent, in 2013-2014 she did a residency at the Jan Van Eyck Academy in Maastricht.
De Meutter is represented by Tim Van Laere Gallery since 2006. (they represent Tal R, Marcel Dzama, Tomasz Kowalski and Franz West) Her work has been shown in various exhibitions in Belgium, the United States, Italy, Spain, the Netherlands, Germany and Japan. In 2010 she had her first solo museum exhibition in Museum Dhondt-Dhaenens.
Ellen De Meutter alters her viewer's reality by presenting a language in which she classifies the figures, shapes and colors from her personal world into a captivating utopia. Contrary to current trends in Flemish art, De Meutter is not simply relaying an anecdote; she composes unique imagery that allows her to experiment with the placement of the subject and unique treatments of her medium. De Meutter's repertoire of vivid, semi-neon colors contrast the muted grays blacks and grays on which they lay. These seemingly energetic colors are at once enhanced by the dark undertones of the canvas below, while simultaneously insinuating a concealed gravity of subject. Belgian art critic and curator, Luk Lambrecht remarks on De Meutter's painting: "she folds back 'her' world onto itself, into a solid mass of color from which, very slowly, vague contours emerge, which safeguard our expectations about looking at an image." De Meutter's scenes are reminiscent of schoolyard games, incorporating a series of text and symbols. By combing figurative imagery with basic abstraction, Ellen De Meutter creates wildly successful compositions that allude to her comprehensive understanding of contemporary painting. She was included in the show, Tomorrow is a long time: Ellen De Meutter, Gelitin, Kati Heck, Anton Henning, Friedrich Kunath...
