Avis Newman Art

British, b. 1946

Avis Newman is an artist, curator and lecturer. She is a Professor at Wimbledon College of Arts and Lecturer at the Rijks Academy, Amsterdam. Newman's drawings and large unstretched canvases that document her contemplative and intuitive investigation of the subconscious. Throughout her career, she has worked with a range of media, although since the early 1980s has been primarily associated with large-scale, minimalist drawings on unstretched canvas - usually pinned directly to the gallery walls for display. Central to Newman’s practice as an artist is the notion of drawing as the silent act of marking, gesturing and making signs. She describes drawing as the activity that is closest to pure thought. Newman first exhibited at Matt’s Gallery in 1982 with scenes and currently sits on the gallery’s committee of management.

Light Force - Original Large Oversized Abstract Expressionism Cubist Painting

By Frankie Alfonso

Located in Los Angeles, CA

Cuban-American artist Frankie Alfonso creates interwoven paintings using lively colors and spontaneous, well-balanced compositions. His work is best described as a style of automatic writing where he manipulates simple lines to make complex arrangements of balance and harmony. His style is a mix of cubism, cartoon animation, surrealism, graffiti, and abstract expressionism. This large original graffiti-inspired artwork is 57 inches high by 80 inches wide. The sides of the artwork are painted as a continuation of the front and it does not require framing. This painting is signed by the artist on the front. Free local Los Angeles area delivery. Affordable Continental U.S. and worldwide shipping is available. A certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery is included. Alfonso began drawing at an early age. He first found inspiration in comic books and enjoyed drawing his favorite superheroes from an unconventional perspective. As a teenager, he started to experiment with oils, and acrylics and took his passion for art to the canvas. Even after painting for over 20 years, he still pushes the boundaries while experimenting with mixed media, including oil, acrylic, gouache, and spray paint. Alfonso attended art school in Tampa, Florida, and traveled Europe for several years in search of inspiration and his own unique voice in art. Alfonso used his in-depth studies of European Masters and was inspired by Picasso, Braque, Klee, Dali, Basquiat, De Kooning, and Matisse. The joyful expressions of his artworks resonate in a positive light and inspire creative thinking and innovation. His works are represented by Artspace Warehouse, Los Angeles, and have been exhibited in Florida and California. They have been collected throughout the United States and Europe.
