About the Item

Artist: Gustavo Úbeda (Herencia, Ciudad Real, 1930 – São Paulo, 1994) Title: Ecos de Picasso (Echoes of Picasso) Medium: Oil on board Dimensions: 81 x 100 cm (31.9 x 39.4 in) Signature: Signed lower right Condition: Good Framing: Unframed Work description In Echoes of Picasso, Gustavo Úbeda creates a surreal and playful universe where fragmented heads, geometric birds carrying impossible fruits, and solar flowers coexist under a deep blue sky. The palette, dominated by intense blues, violets, and greens, is enlivened by touches of red and yellow, giving rhythm and vibrancy to the composition. The work reveals the influence of Cubism and Picasso, as well as connections to the School of Paris and Romanesque stylizations, resulting in a dreamlike and imaginative scene. Artist biography Gustavo Úbeda Romero was born in Herencia (Ciudad Real, Spain) in 1930 into a family dedicated to the arts: his brother Agustín was a painter and Ángel a photographer. He lived in Madrid and later in Paris, where he absorbed the influence of the School of Paris and artists such as Pablo Picasso, Joan Miró, and Georges Braque. In 1955, Úbeda settled in Salvador de Bahia (Brazil), where he developed a prolific career as a painter, ceramicist, poet, and playwright. His artistic language blended European avant-garde aesthetics with the warmth and vitality of the Brazilian environment. He held numerous solo exhibitions in South America, establishing himself as a distinctive voice within Hispanic surrealism. He passed away in São Paulo in 1994.

The Last Time I Saw It - Surrealist Figurative Painting
By Parris Jaru
Located in New York, NY
Parris Jaru's The Last Time I Saw It is a 16 x 11-inch surrealist oil painting. The primary colors are black and red. The canvas surface has a thick impasto of paint, made with plant-based pigments that Jaru collects during his long exploratory trips through India. The imagery brings a surrealist human figure, with all the body features exaggerated as if in a caricature. NY-born Parris Jaru comes from a Jamaican, Blackfoot Nation, and Arawak Nation background from both his parents. His work is informed by the vivid colors and imagery experienced in his childhood years spent in the coastal town of St. Ann’s Bay, Jamaica. His exploratory journeys in India enriched his work with a sensibility to natural plant-based pigments that he grinds with oils for his paintings. In his Brooklyn studio, Jaru brings all these cultural inspirations together. His entire body of work is informed by an intentional childlike, faux-naïve style, constantly shifting between figurative and abstraction. Even though at times, Jaru has been working on somber and entirely figure-free paintings, most of his work is defined by poignantly colored and playful surrealistic figures. Jaru often draws his figures with a continuous line emerging from a thick impasto of paint made with powders of Sea Algae, Hibiscus, Gymnema Sylvestre, and Turmeric.
