About the Item
Nico Amortegui, a talented Cuban graffiti artist, creates captivating original artworks on canvas in the figurative cubism style. His large-scale paintings feature vivid colors, stark contrasts, and bold compositions, resulting in vibrant and textured masterpieces. By incorporating numerous layers and using abstract expressions of colors as backdrops for his portraits and still lifes, Amortegui adds depth and visual interest to his artwork. The strategic use of a solid color overlay further emphasizes the central figure, creating a focal point that commands attention.
This impressive original painting on canvas measures 65 inches in height and 49 inches in width. It is expertly stretched, wired, and ready to be showcased on your walls. The artwork features a dark charcoal gray background and is signed by the artist on the front. Free delivery is available for those in the local Los Angeles area, and affordable worldwide shipping is available for US and international art collectors. A certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery is included with the artwork, ensuring that the piece is an authentic work of art from Nico Amortegui.
Born and raised in Bogotá, Colombia, Amortegui brings a rich cultural background to his artistic creations. Having immigrated to the United States at the age of 17 and hailing from a family of artisans, his artwork reflects the themes of identity, cultural fusion, and the immigrant experience. Drawing inspiration from his elaborate garden, Amortegui infuses elements of nature into his paintings, creating a harmonious blend of organic and abstract forms.
Amortegui's artistic achievements have garnered significant recognition, with exhibitions and collections spanning across the United States and international venues. Notable museum showcases and public installations in cities such as Winston Salem, NC (USA), Tel Aviv, and Jerusalem (Israel) have propelled his career to new heights.

- Le Donne Magiche - Original Figurative Cubist Painting on CanvasBy Alessandro SivigliaLocated in Los Angeles, CAIn his abstract figurative work, internationally collected artist Alessandro Siviglia deconstructs everyday objects, landscapes, and human subjects into colorful geometric shapes in an attempt to represent their three-dimensional nature on a two-dimensional medium without using a naturalistic one-point perspective or shading. This technique translates into a visual language of perceiving the world around us with new emotions. Siviglia's cubist expressionist scenes often include people and small stray animals, which are used to reflect his concept of relativity with amalgams of time and place. This one-of-a-kind 27-inch high by 48-inch wide mixed media composition on canvas is stretched, wired, and ready to hang. The artist signed this original artwork on the front as well as on the back. The sides are painted and it does not require framing. Free local Los Angeles area delivery. Affordable Continental U.S. and worldwide shipping available. A certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery is included. Alessandro Siviglia was born in Salerno, Italy in 1982. He immersed himself in art from an early age. Siviglia was initially drawn to street art, where he was able to express his artistic interests by graffiti writing on large public spaces using the alias CROW. After a 15 year stretch of taking a bold, guerrilla approach to art Siviglia began to create works on canvas that combine his street art background with more traditional artistic conventions. Much of his transformative inspiration stemmed from regularly visiting the Filiberto Menna Art Institute in Salerno. His modernist artworks...Category
