About the Item
SAFE IN THE MIDDLE is a mixed media wall sculpture by Vera Vizzi that juxtaposes urban sketching with organic relief. Executed in foam clay, acrylic paint and enamel on a 34 × 40 × 3 cm triangular fir wood panel, the piece overlays a frenetic, hand-drawn cityscape in bright cyan and black linework with a central swath of glossy green foam clay. Tiny pill-shaped accents punctuate the surface, hinting at fragility amid the graphic chaos.
“In the middle of chaos I’ll find the peace closing eyes and dreaming impossible.” With this declaration, Vizzi frames the work as a meditation on inner calm and imaginative escape. The crisp geometry of the triangular format, paired with the tension between linear urban imagery and sculptural volume, creates a dynamic focal point that engages both emotional and spatial narratives. SAFE IN THE MIDDLE resonates in contemporary interiors seeking bold form, contrasting textures and conceptual depth.

Vera Vizzi
Vera Vizzi (Milan, 1983) is an Italian artist working across painting and sculpture, blending materials and formats to create hybrid, tactile objects. With a background in Communication Design from the Politecnico di Milano, she transitioned from digital graphics to a fully manual, material-driven practice that prioritizes gesture, texture and symbolic resonance. Her work often takes the form of wall-mounted reliefs or compact sculptural volumes, where colour, surface and miniature figures coexist in compositions that evoke emotional, poetic and metaphysical layers.Rooted in a personal yet universal iconography, Vizzi’s pieces explore themes such as memory, perception and the paradoxes of human experience. Her distinctive visual language—at once playful and introspective—invites the viewer into suspended spaces that suggest both intimacy and distance. She lives and works in Milan and exhibits internationally through Casa das Peritas

Abstract Post-Modern Roman Ruins Mixed Media Wall Sculpture, "Classic Series"
Located in Soquel, CA
Wonderful post-modern wall sculpture that is part of artist Jack Reilly (American, b. 1950) "Classics Series" solo exhibition held at the Boritzer-Gray Gallery in October, 1989 at Los Angeles. This unique piece juxtaposes classical motifs with 3 dimensional stacked geometrically modern shapes and hues. The combination of linear structure and color field painting with illusionary space resulted in a unique synthesis of abstraction and pictorial depth, which was sometimes referred to as "Abstract Illusionism." Signed and dated on verso "Jack Reilly, October 1989." Image size: 19"H x 29"W x 3.5"D
Reilly's early work reflected various influences of prominent artists of the time including Frank Stella, Elsworth Kelly...

Note:
Theo Meier arrived in Bali in 1936 with the intention of going on to Tahiti where he had been before. However Bali turned out to be the paradise he had been searching for in his dreams and he had no desire any more to move elsewhere. Bali at that time was still a very traditional place where society lived according to an acient religious system and in a luscious tropical setting the modern world was ignored. Here he met Walter Spies...

"Maybe" is an abstract artwork by Stan Olthuis composed of acrylic paint on polystyrene mounted in a painted wood frame. Maybe measures 26" high by 30" wide by 2.5" deep. Typical of the artist, this minimal geometric abstraction resonates with a rich charge. It's a sculpture and a painting. The circles, the discs, almost touch but not quite. The artist's obsession with geometry and shapes in proximity is a clear gesture here. The eye delights in the formal play of shape and color, while the mind engages the material force of the wood and paint.
From Stan Olthuis – "My work has always involved tactility and expressionistic energy. I visualize the story and imagery simultaneously, allowing the work to surprise me and come to life as I work. I am almost careless in how I use color and texture, facing the fear of improvising on-the-fly. I like to leave the obvious raw record of the process visible, but I believe a mystery remains."
Stan Olthuis looks for expressive opportunities in found and harvested raw material – wood, stone, metal, rubber – and brings a fabricator's expertise to the work of making minimalist, joyful sculptures. Geometry is key, as are a sense of play and an adept's feel for sacred energies.
His work is exhibited and collected internationally, including private and corporate commissions in Canada, United States, France, Japan and Norway. Stan is represented by Gagné Contemporary in Toronto and New York City, and has select works available through the Art Gallery of Ontario (AGO), and Motokawa Gallery in Japan.
Stan Olthuis' formal education began in Chicago with Henk Krijger, the celebrated master printmaker, type designer, painter and sculptor. Back in Toronto, Olthuis graduated (with distinction) with a degree in Experimental Arts at Ontario College of Art & Design (OCAD), studying under artists Fred Hagen, Tom Hodgson...
