Mario Padovan More Prints

Italian, b. 1927
Mario Padovan is an Italian Postwar & Contemporary painter born in 1927. His exploration of various artistic languages and movements reflects a relentless pursuit of self-expression and a profound engagement with the global artistic landscape. In the forties, Padovan delved into figurative art, beginning his artistic odyssey. The fifties saw him embracing informal art, followed by a foray into the vibrant world of Pop Art in the sixties. The seventies witnessed his experiments with Opt Art and image-splitting techniques, showcasing a willingness to push artistic boundaries. Throughout this journey, Padovan explored diverse materials and techniques, from traditional mediums like oil and acrylics to unconventional choices like colored sand, ready-made objects, paper, wood, steel, and even cold light. These elements, when combined, enriched his artistic expression, creating a multifaceted body of work. Padovan's artistic repertoire expanded to encompass sculpture, conceptual installations, and the creation of artist books to meet his evolving creative needs. Critics aptly labeled him a "creative nomad," acknowledging his responsiveness to inner impulses that guided his artistic evolution. In the eighties, Padovan's focus shifted to the geometry of the square, a fascination that would persist for decades. His exploration of geometric forms evolved into illuminated envelopes, a theme that gained prominence in his works. A significant milestone in Padovan's career occurred in 1984 when he exhibited at the 41st Venice Biennale, following an invitation from Giorgio Di Genova and Giovanni Carandente. Subsequent exhibitions showcased his unique blend of classical art citations, mainly drawing inspiration from the Renaissance and Baroque eras. The artist's geometric interpolations and extrapolations inspired by Bernini's Fontana dei Fiumi and Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel figures were exhibited in Rome, Viterbo, and Ferrara, further solidifying his reputation as an artist with a profound connection to classical art. In 2000, Padovan found inspiration in the baroque angels of Ponte Sant'Angelo in Rome, infusing geometric and light elements to highlight the formal perfection of classical art. This marked a continuous dialogue with the past, a theme encapsulated by Picasso's words: "A mediocre artist imitates while a genius copies." As Padovan approaches ninety, his artistic curiosity remains undiminished. His ongoing studies delve into the coherence of numbers, the aesthetic mystery of Phidias' Golden Mean, modern graphic techniques, universal DNA, and the history of monotheistic religions. This relentless pursuit of knowledge and creativity epitomizes Padovan's "creative madness," a term he uses to describe the enduring passion that fuels his artistic exploration and innovation.

Agam Silkscreen Mod Judaica Lithograph Hand Signed Israeli Kinetic Op Art Print
By Yaacov Agam
Located in Surfside, FL
Yaacov Agam Israeli (b. 1928) Hand signed, not individually numbered but from edition of 180. I can include a copy of the title sheet with the edition size and his signature if you request. sheet: 13.5 X 13.5 inches Some of these works have beautiful Hebrew calligraphy and mod imagery, animals and such that are not usually found in his work. This is a masterpiece of bold, graphic, mod design. Along with Reuven Rubin and Menashe Kadishman he is among Israel's best known artists internationally. Biographical info: The son of a rabbi, Yaacov Agam can trace his ancestry back six generations to the founder of the Chabad movement in Judaism. in 1946, he entered the Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design in Jerusalem. Studying with Mordecai Ardon, a former student at the Weimar Bauhaus. Yaakov Agam has been associated h with “abstract” artists, “hard edge” artists, and artists such as Josef Albers and Max Bill. Others find in Agam’s work an indebtedness to the masters of the Bauhaus. Agam’s approach to art, being conceptual in nature, has been likened to Marcel Duchamp’s, who expressed the need to put art “at the service of the spirit.” And, because of Agam’s employment of color and motion in his art, he has been compared to Alexander Calder, the artist who put sculpture into motion. (Motion is not an end, but a means for Agam. Calder’s mobiles are structures that are fixed, revolving at the whim of the wind. In a work by Agam, the viewer must intervene.) Agam has also been classified as an “op art” artist because he excels in playing with our visual sensitivities. Agam went to Zurich to study with Johannes Itten at the Kunstgewerbeschule. There, he met Frank Lloyd Wright and Siegfried Giedion, whose ideas on the element of time in art and architecture impressed him. In 1955, Galerie Denise René hosted a major group exhibition in connection with Vasarely's painting experiments with movement. in addition to art by Vasarely, it included works by Yaacov Agam, Pol Bury, Soto and Jean Tinguely, among others. Most Americans were first introduced to Vasarely by the groundbreaking exhibition, "The Responsive Eye," at New York's Museum of Modern Art in 1965. Josef Albers, Richard Anuszkiewicz. The show confirmed Vasarely's international reputation as the father of Op art. Agam has sought to express his ideas in a non-static form of art. In his abstract Kinetic works, which range from paintings and graphics to sculptural installations and building facades. Agam continually seeks to explore new possibilities in form and color and to involve the viewer in all aspects of the artistic process. Thus, for the past 40 years, Yaacov Agam’s pioneering ideas have impacted developments in art, (painting, monoprint, lithograph and agamograph) architecture, theatre, and public sculpture. Reflecting both his Israeli Jewish...
