About the Item
His first name sounds like a concerto. Vivacious, its name is reminiscent of an aperitif or a cyclist. The addition of the two evokes the Italianate. Indomitable and unavoidable. Moreover, I was born on November 11, 1908 in Bellinzona, one day became a portrait painter of the president of the confederation, residing most of his life in Geneva, Vivaldo Martini refuses to leave his Italian nationality.
He has known ruptures in his life. But Italy has always remained the son of his soul. It's unwavering root. What is striking about this artist, both extraordinary and famous, is a way of dichotomy that has permeated a large slice of his existence. On the one hand, very strong in the art of capturing faces, and that from an early age, he became a beloved, sought-after portrait painter. On the other hand, he has not stopped following a more personal artistic path, two years after his death in May 1990, finally comes to light, and testifies that beyond the chronicler of his time, Vivaldo Martini was above all a great painter.

"Abstract Composition 3" Abstract Oil Painting 24" x 18" inch by Youssef Sida

Youssef Sida
1922-1994
Born in 1922 in Damietta, and in 1945 he got his degree from the Higher Institute of Educational Art. In 1947, he participated in establishing the influential Group of Modern Art. In 1949 he participated in the Egyptian exhibition in Paris. In 1950, he received the Full Bright award for studying art at Minnesota University.
