Lucio Del Pezzo Abstract Paintings
Italian, 1933-2020
Lucio Del Pezzo (1933–2020) was an Italian artist renowned for his contributions to painting and sculpture, characterized by a unique blend of Neo-Surrealist, Neo-Dadaist, and Pop Art influences.
Early Life and Education: Born on December 13, 1933, in Naples, Del Pezzo studied painting at the Accademia di Belle Arti in Naples. In 1958, he co-founded "Gruppo 58," an art movement associated with the "Movimento Nucleare" led by Enrico Baj, and contributed to the avant-garde magazine "Documento Sud." Career Highlights: In 1960, Del Pezzo moved to Milan, encouraged by Enrico Baj and Arturo Schwarz, and held his first solo exhibition at Galleria Schwarz. The following year, he exhibited in the United States, winning the Carnegie International Award. By 1964, he participated in the XIII Triennale di Milano, co-creating the "Labirinto del Tempo Libero" with artists like Enrico Baj and Lucio Fontana, earning international recognition. He also took part in the XXXII Venice Biennale. Del Pezzo later relocated to Paris, residing in Max Ernst's former studio, and continued to exhibit across Europe and the United States. In 1966, he was featured with a personal room at the XXXIII Venice Biennale. Throughout his career, he collaborated with architects on interior designs and created large-scale public artworks, including ceramic reliefs and bronze sculptures for the Naples underground stations in 2001. Del Pezzo's work is distinguished by the incorporation of geometric shapes, symbols, and enigmatic references, often arranged in assemblages that blur the line between painting and sculpture. His art reflects a rational geometry with a metaphysical bent, influenced by Pop Art, and showcases a deep engagement with both popular culture and classical traditions.
Lucio Del Pezzo passed away on April 12, 2020, in Milan. His work continues to be celebrated for its innovative fusion of different artistic movements and its contribution to 20th-century Italian art.to

Charles C. Stewart (1922-2011) was born in Toledo, Ohio. From an early age he had a natural talent for the arts, so much so that during his school years, his teachers encouraged him to take classes at the Toledo Museum. He studied there for eight years.
During World War II, he served with the tank destroyers in five campaigns. When he returned from the war, he studied art and sculpture at the Art Student's League in New York. He then went to Mexico for eight months to study and paint. While in Mexico, he fell in love with the country, its people and arts, vowing one day to return and live.
In 1947, Stewart moved to Taos, New Mexico to start his career. He opened a frame shop and small studio and studied at the Taos Valley Art School under Louis Ribak. In 1949, he opened his own gallery. He taught art and sculpture at the Taos Art Association and at Philbrook Art Center in Tulsa, Oklahoma, as well as teaching private students. He built three homes in Taos, the last of which is known as the "Stewart House." The "Stewart House" was written up in the New Mexico Magazine in an article entitled "The House That Chuck Built" by Tricia Hurst
In late 1984, Stewart and his wife, Mary Lou, were exploring the Baja in Mexico and ended up at "Land's End," a small fishing village on the Sea of Cortez called Cabo San Lucas...
