Modernist Persian Iranian Middle Eastern Abstract Fereydoun Assa Oil Painting

Located in Surfside, FL

Fereydoun (Fred) Rahimi Assa (Iranian, b. 1936) "Lonely Soul in Desert" Oil and mixed media on canvas, Hand signed lower left Framed : 40-1/2"h x 30-1/2"w Sight: 40"h x 30"w Made with metallic foil or paint, the patchwork-like piece bears geometric designs and symbols. Born in Baku, Azerbaijan, Fereydoun Rahimi Assa (b. 1936) moved to Tehran at the age of three. He attended the College of Decorative Arts, Tehran in the same year group as well-known formidable masters, Hossein Zenderoudi and Massoud Arabshahi. After being awarded a travelling scholarship in 1964, Rahimi-Assa went to Israel for three months of study. Although Rahimi-Assa saw success through the several exhibitions he held in Israel, unable to secure a long-term visa and not keen to return to Iran, he found himself in the US – in no small part, thanks to the help of Eric Azari in obtaining a long-term residency visa. Fred Rahimi-Assa went first to New York and later settled in New Jersey. While in New York, he worked in some capacity at Columbia University’s Painting department where he also exhibited several times, including a solo show in 1968. In the same year, Rahimi-Assa participated in a group exhibition of Modern Persian painting, sponsored by the Centre for Iranian Studies at Columbia University – founded that year by Professor Ehsan Yarshater (Hagop Kevorkian Professor of Iranian Studies, Columbia University). After moving out of the City, to New Jersey in the 1970s, Rahimi Asa continued to exhibit with local institutes and organized art seminars in the homes of various artists. His work was included in the Middle East auction held by Sotheby's. It includes pioneering artists such as Egyptian Mahmoud Mokhtar, Moroccan modernism, Mohamed Melehi...

George Cecil Carter 1950s “Warlock” Abstract Expressionist Oil & Metal Foil Pain

George Cecil Carter 1950s “Warlock” Abstract Expressionist Oil & Metal Foil Pain

Located in Denver, CO

“Warlock” is a striking 1950s abstract oil and metal foil on board painting by Colorado modernist George Cecil Carter. This powerful work exemplifies mid-20th-century Abstract Expressionism, with a dynamic palette of dark blue, gray, white, orange, and purple. The combination of textured metal foil and oil paint creates a compelling interplay of light, shadow, and surface, adding depth and a tactile dimension to the composition. Bold forms and rhythmic brushwork convey energy, emotion, and modernist sophistication. Signed by the artist in the lower right and titled and dated on the verso, the painting is presented in its original George Nix frame, with overall dimensions of 30 ¾ x 36 ¾ inches and an image size of 23 ¼ x 29 ¼ inches. Its scale and striking color make it an exceptional focal point for collectors of Abstract Expressionism, mid-century modern art, and Colorado regional modernism. Born in Woodward, Oklahoma, Carter had no formal art training but developed a distinctive style shaped by a diverse life that included work as a coal and gold miner and as a machinist at Schneebeck’s Industries in Colorado Springs. Mentored by Charles Bunnell at the Broadmoor Academy, Carter emerged as a leading figure in Colorado’s Abstract Expressionist movement, exhibiting nationally alongside contemporaries such as Al Wynne, Mary Chenoweth...

Fiber painting: 'The City of Books'

Located in New York, NY

The City of Books shows a map of an imaginary city made up by words: 140 quotations, taken from 40 different books and chosen following the criterion of analogy, give rise to 12 tales that compose the roads of the city. The artwork sees literature cross over into art, exit from books, and is an homage to the transformation process that leads the reader to become author, mixing roles; reading become writing, creating an access between two actions intimately connected.
