About the Item

Avelino Sanher (Mexican, born 1972) "Fallen Soldier" 2024 Oil Paint, Canvas, Stretcher Bars The artist signed the bottom right of the painting. Avelino Sanher's "Fallen Soldier," a poignant piece from the 'Fallen Angel' Series, is a 36" x 36" oil on canvas that portrays a contemplative warrior amidst the spoils of war. The canvas is awash with somber browns and the dark reds of valor, while the figure is perched upon gleaming gold bars, a stark contrast to the scene's gravity. Above, a solitary white feather descends from the heavens, a symbol of lost purity, joining another at the figure's feet – a testament to the price of battle. The overall composition, with the figure's upward gaze and the ethereal feathers, speaks to the dichotomy of victory and loss, honor and sacrifice, grounding the ethereal within the material realm. Sanher's work invites a reflective engagement with themes of mortality, valor, and the fleeting nature of triumph. About the Artist: Avelino Sanher, born in Mexico City in 1972 and a U.S. resident since 1998, is an artist known for his mastery of oil paints and acrylics. His work is a testament to his commitment to inspire and connect with artists and collectors alike. Avelino's unique approach sees him using varied mediums, from recycled cardboard to plastered walls, embodying his belief that art is boundless. His bicultural life, split between Mexico and the United States, imbues his art with a vibrant, energetic quality. Avelino's pieces are a colorful reflection of life's moments, seen through a lens that merges two rich cultural perspectives. Avelino's art is prominently displayed in Silicon Valley, gracing spaces from the Chicano Center at Stanford University to fine dining establishments and casual eateries. This diverse presence underscores his philosophy that art should be accessible to all, resonating across different settings and audiences. In essence, Avelino Sanher's art is a vivid narrative of a life lived across two cultures, captivating viewers with its dynamic and spirited expression. Original, one-of-a-kind.
