Brian Sanchez Figurative Paintings
b. 1986
Brian has been granted asylum in the USA. Brian Sánchez Jiménez
Born on August 21, 1986 in Santiago de Cuba, Cuba.
Professional Preparation:
Graduated from the School of Art Instructors in Santiago de Cuba.
Statement:
Since I was little, with a Perthes disease that prevented me from walking until I was 9 years old, I entertained myself for hours and hours just drawing the images of the books that my father owned. One day I recovered from my illness but the obsession with drawing stayed with me. I discovered there that this would be my vocation and my need.
In a way, when I start a piece, it's like I'm starting a journey. A journey that explores my past, philosophy and the human subconscious . My creations in my view are very symbolic. There are many elements in it that have latent meanings, whether collective or personal. They also have a strong philosophical and psychological charge., mainly delving into the subconscious and the dark part that we possess and repress, contrasting it with the pleasant or tender part that we want to simulate. The origin of things has a great meaning in my curiosity . This is how my inspiration arises in the world of childhood – as the origin of man-, abstract symbols that simulate cells – origin of life-, the wheel – origin of civilization. I also use circles to symbolize cycles of time and life. Passage of time, nostalgia, pain, loneliness, human darkness, disturbing and perhaps bitter elements, I contrast them as enigmas in environments of apparent calm or grace.
Innocent figures in appearance, but with heartbreaking worlds, entangled with disturbing and enigmatic atmospheres are my characters and my works. The mountain also has a leading role in my work, both as an element of my personal roots as well as a symbolic element of the ancestral roots of the nature of the human being and his collective unconscious. I exploit all the techniques, many times I even use unconventional materials until I reach the desired point of maximum expression.
I have influences as dissimilar as numerous. From the magical subtlety of the Flemish masters of the Middle Ages, through the magic of Rembrandt's psychological depths and chiaroscuro, to the eccentric decorative art of Gustav Klimt. I am also fascinated by the idealized worlds of Marc Chagal, Pedro Pablo Oliva, Joan Miro, Calder, Chris Berens, Odd Nerdrum. Also for the psychology of CG Jung and the philosophies of J. Baudrillard or Aldous Huxley.
``Within each person there is another person that they themselves do not know``. That will perhaps be an official motto to understand a little more the universe riddled with enigmas that is in my works.to

Italian Modernist Surrealist Woman Color Oil Painting Lazzaro Donati La Signora
By Lazzaro Donati
Located in Surfside, FL
Lazzaro Donati (Italian, 1926-1977)
Oil on board. Colorful woman. La Signora, Vestita Di Giallo, 1969
Hand signed upper right. signed, titled on back of panel.
Dimensions: (Frame) H 38" x W 30", (Panel) H 28" x W 20"
Lazzaro Donati was born in Florence and attended the Academy of Fine Arts. He began to paint in 1953, and in 1955 held his first exhibition at the Indiano Gallery in Florence. Within three years eleven exhibitions followed in Italy, and as his reputation grew he was invited to give major exhibitions in London, Paris, New York, Chicago, Rio de Janeiro and Montevideo. He is considered one of the foremost contemporary Italian painters and his paintings hang in museums and private collections throughout the Americas, Europe and Asia. His work is recalling the works of the french Raoul Dufy, Dunoyer de Segonzac, Francois Gall and Jean Jansem. This particular work is reminiscent of the work of Manolo Valdes. Donati lived and worked at 24 Piazza Donatello in Florence, the square where generations of artists have created works worthy of the great Florentine tradition. As you entered the narrow hallway to his studio, a gilded life-size Venetian angel beckoned you to his door. Once inside, the present faded away and you found yourself in an atelier where early masters might have worked during the Renaissance. Within, luxurious Persian rugs set off the innumerable objects d’art and antique furnishings...
