About the Item

"Iris" oil on panel, mixed technique by Lluis Rizzo. Hyperrealist painting. Measurements: (H) 114 x (W) 146 cm. Framed: (H) 144 x (W) 176 x (D) 5 cm. « Iris » Here we have a rare species of Iris that will not be found in botanical books but in art catalogs. The flower in this painting has not been developed by rhizome, but by the know-how of the Spanish artist Rizzo. The leaves of the violet, lavender and yellow iris have the peculiarity of making the body of a woman appear. This reminds us of Sandro Botichelli's painting "The Birth of Venus". The petals lull her like a bed, cover her like a dress and protect her like a shell. The first photo was taken before finishing the painting, the background is dark green. In the rest of the photos, it is black, the color that the artist has decided to keep as background. About the artist: During many years Lluís alternated his artistic Exhibitions (13 more in different towns around Catalonia) with illustration work for publishing and advertisement businesses, including among others worldwide known companies such as BBVA, Editorial Planeta, Danone, Nestlé, Instituto Dexeus, Cargill España, Chelsea Books – New York. Books with his illustrations have been published in more than 40 countries. In 1999, Lluís had his first International Exhibition at the ‘Adani Gallery’ in Dallas (USA), and since then he has dedicated all his work to artistic painting.

  • Flight II. Amy Johnson. Surrealistic portrait of pioneering British aviator
    By Tom Adams
    Located in Segovia, ES
    Amy Johnson CBE: Ordre de l'Empire britannique (1903-1941) was one of the most influential and inspirational woman of the twentieth century. She was the first woman to fly solo from England to Australia in 1930 and set a string of other records throughout her career. Even The Queen of Crime, Agatha Christie, had been sufficiently impressed by Amy's achievement in flying solo to Australia. Althought Christie didn't name her directly, it was clearly Amy that her character was referring to in the novel « Peril at End House ». The book features Christie's famous character Hercule Poirot. In this painting Tom Adams use the technique of collage. Dimension with frame 89 cm H x 102 cm W x 7 cm D Dimension without frame 64 cm H x 87 cm W About the artist: Thomas Barclay Adams was born in Providence, Rhode Island, U.S.A. to a family of distinguished architects and planners. He was trained at the Chelsea School of Art and Goldsmith's College between 1946-1950. In 1949 he received a National Diploma of Painting. Between 1953-60 Adams illustrated natural and Regimental history pages for Eagle and natural history features for Eagle, Girl and Swift. In 1958 he founded Adams Design Associates with Anna and Andy Garnett, where he produced large murals in the then-new medium of laminated plastic for various firms such as The Royal Bank of Scotland, Chartered Bank, Aspro Nicholas and Airscrew Jiewood. In 1960 Adams Design Associates became DANAD Designs with a group of architects and designers. In 1965 Adams joined his father, the late James W.R. Adams OBE, eminent town planner and landscape architect, who was planning and design consultant to the Poster Advertising Planning Committee, for whom he helped produce a book: "Posters Look to the Future". He mounted an exhibition at the Tea Center in Regent Street opened by Sir Hugh Casson in 1966. During this period, Adams met Virgil Pomfret and joined his artists' agency. Apart from a few gaps when pursuing other activities (like running art galleries), Adams has been with Pomfret ever since. With Virgil's representation, Adams began a career as a book cover illustrator, most notably for the early John Fowles' novels The Collector, The Magus and The French Lieutenant's Woman (Cape) and the now famous paperpack covers for Agatha Christie (Collins UK and Simon & Schuster USA). This period covered 1963-1975. A book on these cover paintings, with commentary by Julian Symons and an introduction by John Fowles was published in 1981 by Dragons World. Adams has won various awards for illustration, notably the American Society of Illustrators, The American Art Directors Association, and The Design and Art Directors Association, UK. In 1967 Adams opened the Fulham Gallery, which not only gave first exhibitions of some now famous artists, but was for several years the center of the late '60's phenomenon - the poetry print. With C.Day-Lewis (the Poet Laureate) and artist Joseph Herman and John Piper, Adams produced the investiture print for the Prince of Wales. Adams also designed posters for Mark Boyle's light shows (The Sensual Laboratory), going on tour with The Jimmy Hendrix Experience and The Soft Machine. His connection with the modern world of rock music continued when he met Lou Reed, an admirer of his Christie and Raymond Chandler covers. Reed asked Adams to design the cover for his first UK solo album. As a result of this friendship with Lou Reed, Andy Warhol offered to sponsor an exhibition of Tom's work in New York. Adams did eventually work in the States in the early 70's where he was asked by Marshall Arisman to teach at the New York Central School of Art. Around this time, having completed a private commission to paint a portrait of Benjamin Britten...
