About the Item
This contemporary painting by Toni Hamel features a surreal image of a cowboy in the West.
The provocative work of Toni Hamel often plays with iconic themes and imagery from popular culture. True to her surrealist influences, in this piece, Hamel has created an imaginary world where a cowboy, mounted on a horse, stands on a mountain top lassoing a cloud. The palette is vivid-- a bright blue sky filled with fluffy white clouds—a cheerful backdrop to the earth tones of the horse, and the mountain range. Hamel’s paintings tell a story—often with humour or satire about world events and ‘humanity’s hubris’—both historical and present day in dealing with them. Her beautifully detailed and colourful illustrations explore important topics that include the natural environment, societal standards and our own universal psychological ‘demons’.
“Here, I reference America's imperialism and its unrelenting quest to conquer and colonize. “ Toni Hamel
Toni Hamel was born in Italy in 1961. In the early 1980s, she acquired a BFA from

By Tony Geiger
Located in Toronto, Ontario
SORCERER'S BISCUIT is a new oil on canvas surrealist painting by Brooklyn, New York artist Tony Geiger. It measures 16x20" and is a unique artwork. Note the artist's vocabulary present here – the young girl in early 20th century clothes holding the chewed biscuit; on poles either side of her what looks like a wolf in top hat, and a queen with crown. The wolf and queen are dimensional though appear as garish silhouettes – setting up a duality, a dream, a magic spell...
Tony Geiger has said his paintings take you to a certain place, but you have to find your own way back. The world he creates encompasses both classical surrealism and more contemporary concerns. Conflict is usually present. These mischievous juxtapositions make statements on the human condition – either politically, physically or spiritually. Geiger wants the viewer to be challenged and amused by this mixture of the macabre and the playful.
A graduate of the School of Visual Arts, New York and a longtime NYC resident, Tony Geiger still considers himself a transplanted Californian. He has exhibited paintings at the Sideshow Gallery in Williamsburg, the Barbican Centre in London, England, Miami Projects at Art Basel, Ceres Gallery in Chelsea, NYC, and he was accepted into The Drawing Center’s Viewing Program. Tony Geiger lives in Carroll...
