About the Item

Born in 1974 in Todi, Italy, Roberto Bernardi began painting at a very young age, with his first oil paintings dating back to the early 1980’s. His obsession with detail and traditional painting techniques influenced his artistic direction, working first as a restorer at the church of San Francesco a Ripa, to eventually devoting himself fulltime to the creation of his own works. Bernardi intitially painted landscapes and portraits, but soon after began moving towards a new form of realism, closely related to hyperrealism. The turning point in his artistic style took place in the early 2000s with increasingly frequent trips to New York. In 2004 Bernardi moved to Manhattan for a short period and worked in a studio on 73rd street. During this time, his works were strongly influenced by the American culture.Over the last decade Bernardi's works have evolved further, with his hyperreal compositions being increasingly influenced by the Pop Art movement. Since 2012, Bernardi has taken part in an international museum tour. The tour began at the Tübingen Museum in Germany and then continued in 13 other museums around the world, including the prestegious Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum (Spain) that in recent years has acquired two of the artist’s works – a painting and a sculpture.

Schlüsselloch
By Fides Becker
Located in Morongo Valley, CA
'Schlüsselloch' by Fides Becker Acrylic and Eggtempera on Canvas, 33 x 54 cm, 2017 The leading theme of the artist’s interventions is the staging of temporality, transience, and change. Fides Becker (* 1962) developed and pursued her picturesque strategies in the illusionistic pictorial space. Her practice explores intimate worlds through objects and materials we associate with the private sphere in everyday life. Sofas, beds, curtains, mirrors, and sheets are reconstituted in her paintings as fragments, details or dissolving surfaces that engage with the ambiguities between presence and absence, past and present, and personal and collective images. Fides Becker (*1962 in Worms) studied at the Städel School in Frankfurt a.M., at the Academie van Beeldende Kunsten in Rotterdam, and at the Hochschule der Künste in Berlin. Her works can be found in numerous national and international collections, such as the National Collection of Rhineland-Palatinate, the Art Collection of the German Bank...
