Fred Calleri for sale on 1stDibs

Calleri’s early influences were primarily the great American Illustrators such as N.C. Wyeth, Norman Rock- well, and J.C. Leyendecker, as well as Renaissance painters and the Masters of the early 20th century. He looks to those Masters: Johannes Vermeer, Joaquin Sorolla, Anders Zorn, and John Singer Sargent, and aims in his paintings for an emotional reaction from the viewer. Calleri uses the Master’s palette (and mood) to recreate classic, nostalgic, and romantic images in a wide variety of subject matter. Using vintage reference photos, live models, and imagination, there is no limit to Calleri’s creativity. While exploring the figure and representational painting in general, Calleri found that by adding a slight distortion he was free to let the image take him where it wanted to go. It is through this distortion that Calleri injects his images with a mysterious and intriguing quality. Viewers and collectors can’t help but smile at his cast of characters. In this new body of work, Calleri has begun the evolution towards a smoother balance of the representational alongside his quirky distortion. This invites the viewer into a deeper narrative with the work. The historical nature of the paintings hearkens back to a simpler time. For Calleri, every painting is a lesson learned, as he sets an intention related to mood, palette, light, or expression for each piece. The results are unmistakably Calleri. Calleri’s illustrations are often seen in magazines and publications throughout the Southwest, and his work has been featured as an artist with which to “Start your Collection” in Southwest Art Magazine. His work has also been featured in International Artist, American Art Collector, Western Art Collector, Santa Fe Magazine, and Mountain Living Magazine. He is an associate member of the California Artists Society and is represent- ed by six galleries throughout the United States.

Finding the Right Figurative-paintings for You

Figurative art, as opposed to abstract art, retains features from the observable world in its representational depictions of subject matter. Most commonly, figurative paintings reference and explore the human body, but they can also include landscapes, architecture, plants and animals — all portrayed with realism.

While the oldest figurative art dates back tens of thousands of years to cave wall paintings, figurative works made from observation became especially prominent in the early Renaissance. Artists like Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and other Renaissance masters created naturalistic representations of their subjects.

Pablo Picasso is lauded for laying the foundation for modern figurative art in the 1920s. Although abstracted, this work held a strong connection to representing people and other subjects. Other famous figurative artists include Francis Bacon and Lucian Freud. Figurative art in the 20th century would span such diverse genres as Expressionism, Pop art and Surrealism.

Today, a number of figural artists — such as Sedrick Huckaby, Daisy Patton and Eileen Cooper — are making art that uses the human body as its subject.

Because figurative art represents subjects from the real world, natural colors are common in these paintings. A piece of figurative art can be an exciting starting point for setting a tone and creating a color palette in a room.
