Russell Sharon
Untitled (Birds), figurative, scene

1994

About the Item

Oil painting depicting birds in flight against a mostly white dynamic background done with expressive brush strokes. Russell Sharon was born on a farm in Minnesota. He studied in Mexico City, Boston and New York. He is known for his wildly colorful works with imagery drawn from the Minnesota landscape, featuring ponds, lakes, fields, animals. He now spends his time between his studios in Miami Beach and his farm in Minnesota. Russell has said that when he starts a painting he "enters a state of focused concentration, looking for that which leads to spontaneity, to the unexpected" and then applies colors in rough, textured layers. This heightens the sculptural and sensual quality of the paintings. He has exhibited his work throughout the US, Europe and South America.

Luis Frangella (1944-1990) was a figurative, postmodern painter and sculptor. He earned a masters in architecture at the University of Buenos Aires in 1972 and then attended the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1973. In 1976, he moved to New York City where he painted huge “street” murals on construction site wall, abandoned Hudson River piers and in the nightclubs of the East Village and Tribeca.
