About the Item

Artist: Slonem, Hunt Title: Violets Date: 2024 Medium: Oil on wood Unframed Dimensions: 10" x 14" Framed Dimensions: 12.5" x 16.5" Signature: Signed by Artist on Verso Edition: Unique Hunt Slonem is a veteran to one-man shows in global hot spots like Venice, Paris, Madrid, Stockholm, Oslo, Tokyo, Dubai and Hong Kong, and over one hundred museums worldwide include his distinctive works in their collections. Called a Neo-Expressionist, Slonem combines Abstract Expressionist techniques with mysticism and animal subjects; bunnies, butterflies and birds. Slonem uses an abstract platform for his traditional subject matter, developed with gestural brushwork and bold Warhol Esque repetitive compositions. Fascinated by the manipulation of paint, he works quickly and creates jarring color juxtapositions, developing multiple canvases simultaneously. The artist paints areas of the canvas, building layers side by side as well as one on top of the next. He works on each area swiftly, allowing the paint to dry just enough before applying cross-hatching with the opposite end of his paint brush. The scratched grids that cover the forms beneath exert a literal bondage and a protective domain, the visual effect of which is spellbinding. The textures achieved by Slonem’s trade-mark etching capture light and further emphasize the ethereal nature Slonem bestows upon his beloved subjects.

Violets
By Joseph Domjan
Located in Surfside, FL
Born in Budapest in 1907, he had a humble upbringing and a passion for the arts. Shortly after the Hungarian Revolution broke out in 1956, Domján was invited to showcase his work in New York; given both the circumstances and opportunities, he readily accepted. Eventually, with his wife and children, he settled in Tuxedo Park. Here, he established the Domján Studio and where lived until his passing in 1992. In his early years, and during the Great Depression, Domján toured Europe with the desire to be engulfed by art. Previously, much of his time had been consumed with the work of both an engine fitter and foundry worker. After testing the waters of over 20 different professions, he discovered his passion in the arts. Later, during his European tour, he earned his way by selling a variety of works including both paintings and sketches. Post-depression, he returned to Hungry where he studied seven years at the Budapest Academy of Arts. Having spent an earlier portion of his life as a painter, Domján created his first woodcut in 1947 by using oil paint as opposed to printer’s ink. The result was stunning. This technique, becoming his signature style, would later set him apart from others within the trade. To create his pieces, Domján applied rich color, layer by layer, and lays claim to having “succeeded in bringing to the world something that had not existed before.” Ultimately, each print became three dimensional and gave the appearance of a painting. His technique has gained him international merit as well as the honor of receiving China’s “Master of the Color Wooodcut” award, a recognition given only once every century. The inspiration behind many of Domján’s woodcuts, coupled with his love of nature, is derived from Hungary’s brilliant folklore. The intricacy of his design is certainly his prominent element; however, their subtle coloring and abstract images contribute to his unique style. For the 59th Anniversary of composer Béla Bartók’s opera, Duke Bluebeard’s Castle, Domján used the opera’s profound imagery to create a series of woodcuts. The work included an ominous castle, coiled snakes, smirking masks, elusive zodiac symbols, and the story’s forbidden key. In doing so, Domján was able to weave traditional folklore components into a fantastic piece of modernized art. His work is not only expressive of Hungarian folklore...
