The Lovers

2022

About the Item

This piece titled "The Lovers" is an original artwork made from oil on double vintage portrait paintings on wood by André Schulze. This piece measures 19.75"h x 11.5"w framed. André Schulze (1982) is an artist and painting conservator from Dresden, Germany who specializes in the restoration and remodeling of old paintings. He studied fine arts at Dresden University of Fine Arts. The artist uses old paintings, often saved from disposal, found in antique and thrift stores or given to him by collectors. The artist thoroughly restores the frequently badly damaged old paintings before he continues to layer them with his own painted contemporary imagery, mixing in subtle humor and attention to detail. Through the restoration of the artworks and his modern interpretation, he sees his process as a second life for forgotten artworks. From the conscious reuse of materials to the renewed chance at a captive audience for the artwork, the artist relocates the worlds in the paintings to our present moment in layers that extend beyond the painted surface.

  • "An Invasion", Chicago, Woman figure, social change, Acrylic on Wood
    Located in Philadelphia, PA
    "An Invasion" is a piece by Qiaira Riley made from acrylic paint and beads on found wood. This piece measures measures 24"h x 24"w unframed. "Inspired by the changing visual landscape of my hometown of Chicago, I created these works to explore how the gentrification of the south-side disrupts intimate, private memories associated with public spaces in the name of urban "renewal," even creating commodifiable opportunities to make community memories public and profitable, yet not sacred. I was attending a suburban private liberal arts college; many classmates often seemed obsessed with fantastical, cheap narratives about my community and the folks in it that deeply contrasted the memories of love and care I had grown up with. These works remember and reclaim these spaces while showing off my favorite public treasures, sights, and delicacies. There are also odes to the sweet parts of my adolescence that I hope urban development will not shift: running around the city with my father, who has worked for the Chicago Park District for over 25 years, my mom getting me a 6 piece from Harold's Chicken whenever I got a good report card, or stopping by Zberry, the city's first black-woman owned froyo shop to get a treat after school. I moved to Philadelphia that same year with just two suitcases, my art supplies storage...

    Urbex is the English acronym for urban exploration and is an activity that consists of searching for and locating abandoned infrastructure with the goal of visiting, photographing and conveying its contents, with particular involvement of methodologies from geography, anthropology, sociology to cultural studies. Her works have been in the past approached to the works of Anselm Kiefer (b. 1945) and Giovanni Battista Piranesi (1720-1770), but in Gullotta's paintings the absence of color makes the spaces particularly ethereal, allowing them to be ideally lifted to new places and to new life.
