Cécile Bisciglia

French, b. 1974
Since 2009, Cécile Bisciglia has devoted herself to large-scale drawings using a ballpoint pen. The originality of her work lies in the confrontation between an academic mastery of drawing and a tool as modern as the biro. The artist does not draw definite contours but works with light and shadow, revealing the forms. Through her hyper-realistic drawings and choice of subjects, Cécile Bisciglia depicts the living. She explores the contours of the body, femininity, animality and humanity. Her large-scale portraits, impressive in their truthfulness, forcefully confront the viewer with the face of a gorilla, folds of tortured skin, or the intimacy of the female body. The viewer’s eye is drawn back and forth between observing the detail and contemplating the monumental subject before them. “What interests me is sensitive lines, lines which vibrates.”

Tom Judd Casey (for the "Patrick Eddington Cat Project), 2000 Acrylic, Mixed Media and Metal painting on board Signed and dated in pencil on the front 12 × 10 1/2 inches This is a unique painting Tom Judd Biography This is a lovely mixed media painting by popular Philadelphia based artist, Tom Judd. Provenance: Estate of Patrick Eddington. Patrick Eddington was a Utah school teacher who had the improbable idea of writing to his favorite artists and asking them to draw or paint pictures of cats. “This project is a labor of love," Eddington wrote of his endeavor in a 2004 letter. “It will culminate as a large book and traveling exhibition. It will also help Best Friends Animal Sanctuary. I’ve asked individuals I admire to create cat-related works. They are not the typical cat images but creative works.” Patrick Eddington passed away in early 2016 and his vision was, unfortunately, never realized. Nonetheless, artists like Keith Haring, Joel Peter Witkin...
