Eze, France Mediterranean Landscape oil painting

Located in Wilton Manors, FL

Robert Padilla (b.1947) Eze, France Landscape, 1985. Oil on linen canvas, 8.75 x 10 inches. Signed and dated lower left. Unframed. Robert Padilla was born in 1947 in Paris, France, and was shuttled in and out of foster homes and orphanages, which played a factor in him turning his paintbrush on those who had been discarded – out-of-sight-out-of-mind. Searching for a place to call home, Padilla enlisted in the French military in his early 20’s before coming to the United States in 1976. With a job already lined up when he arrived, Padilla worked at a ritzy hair salon located on Madison Avenue and 72nd Street in New York City and was doing well for himself. While roaming and exploring the streets of New York City and becoming entrenched in his surroundings, Padilla discovered another creative outlet. “I started painting, drawing and developing my technique,” he said. “It took me about a year to create a painting that meant something, and it was a turning point. He also saw creating art as his “calling,” once he discovered “Thompson Park, the underground capital of homelessness in New York,” he said. Padilla found in their faces that human emotion, the same cloak of despair that he at times felt. He also saw creating art as his “calling,” once he discovered “Thompson Park, the underground capital of homelessness in New York,” he said. Padilla found in their faces that human emotion, the same cloak of despair that he at times felt. As an artist, he was validating their existence. They posed for him as models and he expressed seeing a tenderness in their eyes that he connected with. Their faces have been positioned just so on the walls of Detour Gallery in great anticipation of the opening of their show, for all to see and for them to be admired, acknowledged and invited in as part of the human family. “His work is about real people,” said artist, Julia Rivera...

Cadaqués Costa Brava Mediterranean Harbor with Fishing Boats and Whitewashed

Cadaqués Costa Brava Mediterranean Harbor with Fishing Boats and Whitewashed

By Rafael Duran Benet

Located in Sitges, Barcelona

Cadaqués Costa Brava Mediterranean Harbor with Fishing Boats and Whitewashed Village Artist: Rafael Durán Benet (1931–2015) Medium: Oil on canvas laid on cardboard Dimensions: 13 x 16.1 in (33 x 41 cm) Frame: Unframed Origin: Spain Subject: Cadaqués, Costa Brava, Mediterranean harbor, fishing boats, whitewashed village Style: Post-Impressionist, Mediterranean Modernism Period: Mid-20th century Condition: Good vintage condition, with minor signs of age consistent with an original period artwork. Please refer to the photographs for full details. Signature: Signed lower right “R. Duran” Description A highly atmospheric Mediterranean coastal scene by Rafael Durán Benet, depicting the unmistakable visual world of Cadaqués on the Costa Brava, with traditional fishing boats resting in the foreground and a cluster of luminous whitewashed houses rising behind the harbor. The composition combines several of the most desirable subjects in 20th-century Catalan painting: Cadaqués, the Costa Brava, Mediterranean architecture, fishing boats and brilliant coastal light. Durán Benet constructs the scene with broad, confident brushwork and a sophisticated palette of turquoise, ivory, ochre, green and deep violet. The boats are reduced to strong, elegant shapes, while the white façades of the village dissolve into soft planes of light and color. Rather than pursuing photographic detail, the artist captures the atmosphere of Cadaqués through rhythm, light and simplified form. The turquoise water creates a luminous horizontal band across the composition, while the boats and architecture establish a balanced sequence of shapes characteristic of his mature Mediterranean landscapes. The painting evokes the quiet charm of the historic fishing village of Cadaqués, one of the most iconic artistic destinations on the Costa Brava and one of the great recurring subjects of modern Catalan art. Biography Rafael Durán Benet was born in Terrassa, Catalonia, in 1931 and died in Barcelona in 2015. He was the nephew of Rafael Benet i Vancells, the important Catalan painter, critic and art historian, who played a significant role in his early artistic development. During the 1950s Durán Benet settled in Cadaqués, on the Costa Brava, where the Mediterranean landscape became one of the defining themes of his career. The village, its harbor, whitewashed architecture, fishing boats and surrounding coastline provided him with an enduring visual vocabulary. Cadaqués was also one of the great artistic meeting points of 20th-century Europe. During his years there, Durán Benet moved within the cultural environment associated with figures such as Salvador Dalí, Marcel Duchamp and Pablo Picasso. His first solo exhibition was held in 1958 at Sala Vayreda in Barcelona. He later exhibited extensively in Barcelona, Madrid and Cadaqués, as well as internationally in cities including Paris, London, Houston and Los Angeles. He also maintained a longstanding relationship with the prestigious Sala Parés in Barcelona. In 1980, Durán Benet received the Henri Forman Prize from the Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts in Paris. In 2011, the city of Terrassa honored him with a retrospective exhibition at the Sala Muncunill. His paintings are immediately recognizable for their luminous Mediterranean palette, simplified architecture, expressive brushwork and ability to transform everyday coastal scenes into poetic studies of light and atmosphere. Artistic Inspiration This work belongs directly to the great tradition of Mediterranean and Costa Brava landscape painting that shaped modern Catalan art during the 20th century. The subject of Cadaqués places the painting within a particularly important artistic context. The village became internationally associated with artists including Salvador Dalí, Pablo Picasso and Marcel Duchamp, while its extraordinary light, rocky coastline, fishing boats and whitewashed architecture attracted generations of painters. Durán Benet interprets this world through a personal post-impressionist language. His broad brushwork, simplified forms and flattened perspective give the composition a modern character, while his sensitivity to atmosphere preserves the intimacy and authenticity of traditional Mediterranean landscape painting. A particularly appealing example of Spanish and Catalan Mediterranean painting, combining several highly searchable and collectible subjects: Cadaqués, Costa Brava, Mediterranean harbor, fishing boats, whitewashed village and Spanish modern art. Cadaqués paintings are especially sought after for their association with the artistic heritage of the Costa Brava and with figures such as Salvador Dalí, Picasso and Duchamp. This work offers that cultural connection while retaining the decorative immediacy and color that make Mediterranean paintings especially attractive in contemporary interiors. Its compact 13 x 16.1 inch format makes it particularly versatile for collectors and interior designers seeking authentic European art with strong regional identity. Ideal for collectors of Spanish Modern Art, Catalan Painting, Cadaqués Painting, Costa Brava Art, Mediterranean Landscape, Harbor Painting, Marine Painting, Fishing Boat Art, Post-Impressionism and Mid-Century European Painting.

Interiors I: Family Reunion — A penetrating scene with a hidden homage to Eadwea

Interiors I: Family Reunion — A penetrating scene with a hidden homage to Eadwea

By Peter Milton

Located in Middletown, NY

Interiors I: Family Reunion 1984 Resist ground etching and engraving on BFK Rives wove paper, 20 x 36 inches (501 x 913 mm), full margins. Signed, titled, dated and numbered 49/175 in pencil, lower margin. In excellent condition with minor mat tone. A luminous, rich, and well-inked impression of this haunting image, with astonishing detail and depth. Framed handsomely under museum grade glass with archival materials in a solid wood frame with silver finish. [Milton 107] Intended to be a stand alone image in its inception, Family Reunion ended up spawning seven additional images, and became a sort of Primo Pensiero in the sprawling, masterpiece suite now known as Interiors. The suite took eight years to complete, and consists of works of varying format, psychological intensity, and subject matter. The thematic darkness in the eight images waxes and wanes, and Milton intentionally included several interlude works to lighten the tension he felt while composing several of the darker images. The first two in the series, Family Reunion, and Hotel Paradise Café, were meant to be companion pieces. The equilibrium of each composition is anchored on a central brooding figure; a man (perhaps based on a Thomas Eakins portrait of the American anthropologist Frank Hamilton...
