About the Item
Luis Frangella (1944-1990) was a figurative, postmodern painterand sculptor. He earned a Masters in architecture at the University of Buenos Aires in 1972 and then attended the Massachusetts
Institute of Technology in 1973. In 1976, he moved to New York City where he painted huge “street” murals on construction site walls, abandoned Hudson River piers, and in the nightclubs of the East Village and Tribeca. Situated in these nontraditional spaces, he began working with subversive artists like Wojnarowicz. Luis was a sort of father figure to many younger artists, becoming an influential member of the East Village art scene. Known as a good
cook, he fostered a sense of community and caring, often serving impromptu meals in his loft after the late-night club scene was winding down. Writing in Art Forum (1985), John Howell proclaimed, “Luis Frangella is a classic junk artist. That is, he grafts the essence of classic art themes and techniques onto an anthology of urban debris used as support materials, there by updating the past and historicizing the present.” At the height of the AIDS epidemic Frangella was diagnosed with the disease and
played an integral role in the ACT UP movement. Ostracized by his sexuality and state of health, Frangella embraced the marginalization he faced, applying it to their art and activism. Seriously incapacitated by his illness, Frangella was unable to
remain involved for long, dying in 1990 at the age of 46.

Diamonds for Ernestine-romantic landscape of imaginary city made in red blue
By Igor Fomin
Located in Fort Lee, NJ
The hero at this painting is a human. His eyes are a lenses that artist using. At all time they are together, a man and a woman. Duality of differences, two views, different accents, but in one wholeness. Fomin is a fairy-tale artist, a romance teller, who is choosing never ending life stories for a viewer. He is telling these stories with realistic language of the artist, citing the language of Bruegel sentimental sincerity of Chagall, but also a precise coloristic scheme, that was a signature of French Art in the second half of XX century.
The fantastic World of the artist is perfectly detailed that makes it truthful. This artistic language principle defined the style of the artist long before he entered the Art World market...
