Paul Gauguin
"Projet D'Assiette, " from first ed. of 50 Original Zincographie by Paul Gauguin

1889

About the Item

"Projet D'Assiette" is an original zincographie print by Paul Gauguin. It is from the first edition of 50, created in 1889. 18 7/8" x 13" art 24 3/4" x 21" framed Paul Gauguin (1848-1903) was a French post-Impressionist artist. Underappreciated until after his death, Gauguin is now recognized for his experimental use of color and Synthetist style that were distinctly different from Impressionism in that it emphasized the artist's feelings about the subject he was painting. Gauguin's work was influential to the French avant-garde and many modern artists, such as Pablo Picasso and Henri Matisse. He became popular after his death, partially from the efforts of art dealer Ambroise Vollard, who organized exhibitions of his work late in his career. His bold experimentation with color led directly to the Synthetist style of modern art, while his expression of the inherent meaning of the subjects in his paintings, under the influence of the cloisonnist style, paved the way to Primitivism and the return to the pastoral. Gauguin's many visits to Tahiti, which he found fascinating for its "primitive" culture, also greatly influenced his art and his thinking. This print was the first print that Gauguin created and was created as a design for a ceramic plate. The subject of the piece is Leda and the Swan.

    By Frank Arnold
    Located in Fresno, CA
    Frank Arnold is thought by many to be one of the foremost abstract figurative painters and sculptors of our time. He is a living master whose work is considered to be both personal and universal. He divides his time between working studios in California, San Jose del Cabo and Mexico City. Arnold has exhibited his unique and expressive abstract-figurative style in multiple galleries and museums and is in numerous collections, worldwide. In addition to oil paintings and bronze sculpture, Arnold has produced two books, the first of which, Frank Arnold Speaks” is a bilingual, English and Spanish biography covering his upbringing by adoptive parents, and the impact his experiences have had on his artwork. His second book, “Your Creative Imagination Unlocked,” is a collaborative effort with noted depth psychologist, Dr. Jim Manganiello. It includes an exploration of his own creative process and several observations and hypotheses by Manganiello with regard to Arnold’s work as well as that of other noted abstract artists, Cy Twombly, Wassily Kandinsky, Pablo Picasso, Mark Rothko and Banksy. This book delves into the deeper mind and how art can be a path to rediscovery of your creative imagination. Each Frank Arnold Limited Print...
