About the Item

An oil painting by American artist Anthony Mastromatteo. Although it looks like a tattered old comic fixed to the wall, it's actually all oil paint. "Non Serviam" is latin for "I will not serve" and the image of the iconic superhero shows him flexing free from shackles around his wrists and ankles. The comic has bends, folds, tears and rips - clearly a long loved and used item. The fingerprints found on the comic are also painted by the artist. Unframed. Signed "Anthony Mastromatteo" on verso top stretcher bar. The arts have been an integral part of Anthony Mastromatteo’s life for over 25 years. A Bachelor of Arts degree in Art History from Princeton University in 1992 led to a five year position at Christie’s auction house in New York City in the American Paintings, 19th Century Paintings and Maritime Paintings and Objects departments. As his exposure to the art world expanded he began studying the practice of art after work at the Art Student’s League in New York City. In 1997 he made the transition to full-time art study at the Water Street Atelier, a school of art practice based on the methodology of the French Academy and the French atelier system of the 18th and 19th centuries, under the tutelage of Jacob Collins. In 2002 he finished his studies and made the transition to working as a professional artist. He has worked solely as an artist since that time. He currently has representation with galleries in New York City, Los Angeles and Cleveland.

By Anthony Mastromatteo

Continuing his affinity for Malevich’s geometric paragon is Felix Culpa or ‘Must be a Woe,” this time, in red. Three red squares hover above Christ suffering on the cross—one of the most recognizable images in art history—yet here, no wooden cross is in sight. Christ simply floats against a white wall. The three “Red Squares” map the edges of the invisible crucifix, and an old violin...
