Questions About R T Facts
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2024One key fact about Victor Vasarely is that he is considered the grandfather of Op art due to his eye-popping geometric abstractions that play with the viewer’s perception of depth, perspective and motion. He was born in Pécs, Austria-Hungary, on April 9, 1906, and began studying medicine at the Eötvös Loránd University in 1925 with the hope of one day becoming a doctor. Two years later, he shifted gears and enrolled in a painting course at the Podolini-Volkmann Academy. In the 1960s, he developed an alphabet plastique, or fine art alphabet, consisting of elementary visual building blocks that could be used in endless combinations to create original compositions. One final fact is that both Hungary and France have issued postage stamps featuring his artwork. On 1stDibs, explore a range of Victor Vasarely art.
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 1, 2024Some facts about Keith Haring include that he began his career by creating street art in New York subway stations, which he referred to as his "laboratory." In 1986, Haring opened the Pop Shop in Manhattan’s Soho neighborhood and began selling merchandise and novelty items featuring imagery by himself and contemporaries like Kenny Scharf and Jean-Michel Basquiat. Also, the world's largest jigsaw puzzle features Haring's artwork and consists of 32,000 pieces. After his death, his estate formed the Keith Haring Foundation to raise awareness about AIDS and fund research into the autoimmune disease. On 1stDibs, explore a wide range of Keith Haring art.
- 1stDibs ExpertMay 3, 2024Here are some facts about Andy Warhol. He was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, on August 6, 1928, and he attended Carnegie Mellon University in his hometown. He moved to New York City in 1949 and built a successful career as a commercial illustrator. Although he made whimsical drawings as a hobby during these years, his career as a fine artist began in the mid-1950s with ink-blot drawings and hand-drawn silkscreens. As a child, Warhol was often sick and spent much of his time in bed, where he would make sketches and put together collections of movie-star photographs. He described this period as formative in terms of his skills and interests. Indeed, Warhol remained obsessed with celebrities throughout his career, often producing series devoted to a famous face or an object from popular culture, such as Chairman Mao or Campbell's tomato soup. The 1962 silkscreen Marilyn Diptych embodies his love of bright color and famous subjects. Warhol was a prominent cultural figure in New York during the 1960s, '70s and '80s. His studio, the Factory, was a gathering place for the era's celebrities, writers, drag queens and fellow artists, and collaboration was common. Find an assortment of Andy Warhol art on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 31, 2023One interesting fact about Joan Miró is that he was greatly influenced by his birthplace, Barcelona, Spain, and the city, in turn, has been influenced by him. To this day, a number of his public artworks can be found there, including the 72-foot-tall statue Dona i Ocell (Woman and Bird), which he made in 1983. Shop a selection of Joan Miró from some of the world's top galleries on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 13, 2024There are several interesting facts about David Hockney. For one, the British artist refused to write an essay for his final exam at the Royal College of Art and instead submitted a sketch of his diploma, prompting the school to change the rules in order to allow him to graduate. He also has synesthesia, which allows him to see colors when he listens to music. In 1990, he turned down the opportunity to be knighted by the Queen of England. Another fact is that Hockney has always been fascinated by the use of technology in art. He is credited with inventing the technique of joining Polaroid photos in a collage to form a panoramic picture, and he has recently been using the Brush app to paint on an iPad. On 1stDibs, find a selection of David Hockney art.
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 1, 2024One interesting fact about Pablo Picasso is that the artist was extremely prolific, producing more than 150,000 works during the course of his life. Although known by just “Picasso,” his full name is actually 35 words long: Pablo Diego José Francisco de Paula Juan Nepomuceno María de los Remedios Cipriano de la Santísima Trinidad Martyr Patricio Clito Ruíz y Picasso. Police once thought he was responsible for stealing the Mona Lisa, and ironically, more Picasso paintings have been reported as missing or stolen than those of any other artist in history. Before he died at the age of 91, Picasso reportedly said, "Drink to me, drink to my health, you know I can't drink anymore," and his parting words inspired Paul McCartney to write the song "Picasso's Last Words (Drink to Me)." On 1stDibs, find a selection of Pablo Picasso art.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 22, 2024Here are some facts about Victor Vasarely's art. First, his work contributed to the development of Op art and consisted largely of eye-popping geometric abstractions that play with the viewer's perception of depth, perspective and motion. A classic example is the 1937 Zebra, which consists of undulating black and white stripes that suggest the form of the titular animal through optical trickery. The work is often credited as the earliest Op art painting. Vasarely wasn't just attempting to fool the eye; he wanted to "democratize" art by producing work in large editions at reasonable prices and with themes that were understandable across national and cultural boundaries. Also, Vasarely developed an alphabet plastique, or fine art alphabet, consisting of elementary visual building blocks that could be used in endless combinations to create original compositions. By employing this universal visual vocabulary and stripping away topical references, he sought to create what he called a "Planetary Folklore." On 1stDibs, shop a selection of Victor Vasarely art.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2024Here are a few facts about Robert Indiana's artwork. His body of work helped to define various techniques and movements, including assemblage art, Pop art and hard-edge painting.
In 1964, he created his now iconic LOVE image, including it on cards he sent to loved ones. He later turned the image into sculptures, and today, there are more than 50 of his LOVE pieces located in public spaces around the world.
Indiana was also an accomplished printmaker and is known for a series he produced in collaboration with poet Robert Creeley. As a graphic designer, he created posters for art exhibitions and theatrical performances, such as the New York State Theater, Lincoln Center and the opening exhibition of the Hirshhorn Museum of Art. In addition, he designed costumes and sets for Virgil Thomson and Gertrude Stein's opera, The Mother of Us All.
Shop a selection of Robert Indiana art on 1stDibs. - 1stDibs ExpertApril 22, 2024Here are some interesting facts about Vincent van Gogh: First, he produced more than 900 paintings over the course of just one decade, making him a very prolific artist. He was also an avid letter writer, and historians believe he wrote more than 800 letters to his brother Theo and other friends during his lifetime. Despite his tremendous output as an artist, van Gogh achieved little commercial success. In fact, he only sold one painting before his death in 1890. It was his sister-in-law, Johanna, who helped make the artist posthumously known. Explore a collection of Vincent van Gogh art on 1stDibs.
- What does R&B mean on silver?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022The maker’s mark R&B is from the company Roberts & Belk.
