Trapeze Girl at the Circus on a Red Background - Acrylic Painting by L.Rise

1980s

About the Item

As a cultural artifact, the circus holds various symbolic meanings over time, challenging our beliefs while inspiring wonder. In this tribute to Fernand Leger and his 50s Circus series, Lrisé has created a colorful acrylic painting on canvas resembling a collage but without using cut-out pieces. Instead, it presents simple geometric shapes such as squares, triangles, circles, trapezoids, ovals, and ellipses painted in bold contrasts of curves and straight lines - with dark and thick outlines - giving this aerial circus woman the appearance of a Pinocchio or a wooden dummy used for figure drawing.

Tangerine Dream
By Amanda Watt
Located in Belfast, GB
Tangerine Dream Acrylic on Canvas 24 x 18 1/8 in 61 x 46 cm "I consider myself a ‘Fusionist’, because I merge styles that inspire me, while playing with the fusion of East and West. I combine orientalism and primitivism with western cubist principles and the expressionists’ use of colour, to create bright and vibrant figurative images." - Amanda Watt Amanda Watt was born in Northern Ireland in 1960, and graduated from the Belfast College of Art and Design in 1982. Just three years out of University, while living in London, Amanda was discovered by top film director Barry Levinson, who invited her to Malibu to paint from his beach house for six months. From this moment, her art took off, and she spent the next twenty years building a successful career in California, making her way into collections of many key LA directors, producers, galleries, and film stars. With annual solo shows in LA, San Francisco and New York, Amanda's bright, vibrant landscapes, interior scenes, and her semi-abstract figurative paintings have became a staple of Californian society. Watt's key collectors include casino mogul Steve Wynn...

Woman with a Guitar, Cubism
By Simka Simkhovitch
Located in Greenwich, CT
A period work by a Russian artist working in a Cubist approach. The canvas is 24 1/4 x 22 1/4 inches and the above dimension is the framed size. The frame is an older frame, with a flat gold/brown finish. In Woman with Guitar, Simkhovitch plays on his his early fascination with Cubism and Constructivism (and his background in illustration) expressing and compressing with planes and color the spatiality of a domestic scene. Considered a master draftsman and an adherent of certain classicism, Simkhovitch’s compositions are often built up in a complicated but well-managed counterpoint, at heart, he is a romanticist preferring the dreamy colors of a Russian fairy tale.
