About the Item

"PORTRAIT OF A YOUNG WOMAN" OIL ON CANVAS, SIGNED AMERICAN, DATED 1950 49 X 35.5 INCHES ___________________ Remo Bramanti 1923-1998 Remo Bramanti was born in New York City to Italian immigrant parents from Pietrasanta, Italy. As a painter and creative influence in both fine art and American pop culture, Remo Bramanti's career and life journey took two simultaneous paths to acclaim: he enjoyed a career as a painter with equal talents in abstract expressionism and realism, and in the commercial world he was a much sought after graphic artist, illustrator and designer. His paintings in photo-realism display the technical skill Bramanti had in creating lifelike images of both the human form and landscapes, reflecting his rich Italian heritage, life in New York in the early to mid-20th century and his abundant travels. While an active participant in the abstract expressionism movement as it evolved in the United States during the early 1950s, Bramanti simultaneously gained a reputation as a leading graphic artist and illustrator. He was engaged to do portraits and album covers of such popular music icons as Bobby Darin, James Brown, Buddy Holly, Chuck Berry and Jacques Brel. His private portrait commissions include film director Woody Allen. He also did the cover art for the book from the musical of the 1960s pop culture phenomenon Hair and served as the artistic designer for America.
