Modest Cuixart i Tàpies Art

Spanish
CUIXART I TÀPIES, Modest (Barcelona, 1925 - Palafrugell, Girona, 2007). He cuixart initially studied medicine, but soon abandoned his studies to devote himself to painting, and entered the Free Academy of Painting in Barcelona. In 1948 he participates in the foundation of the Dau al Set group, along with Brossa, Ponç, Tàpies and Tharrats, among others. Concerned about the artistic value of the sign, his work has from the beginning a strong relationship with surrealism and a great sensitivity to the expressive power of color. By 1955 he plunges into the material informalism, which will take you to use the "scraping" in works of some orientalizante aftertaste. In 1959 he won first prize of São Paulo Biennale and exhibited at the Documenta in Kassel, and the following year participates in an exhibition of Spanish art held at the Tate Gallery in London and the Guggenheim Museum in New York. Cuixart introduced into his work the collage in 1962, which will take you slowly towards pop-art. Enriched by all these experiences, returns to the flat paint, reaching a very personal critical realism, expressionism that synthesizes the dramatically transformed figuration, always valuing the chromatic qualities. In the seventies exhibited in numerous national and international capitals like Paris, Madrid, São Paulo, Amsterdam, Tokyo, Basel, Barcelona and Milan, among others. In the next decade, Cuixart is releasing his painting of the aggressive aspects to give a more lyrical tone. It also participates in a group exhibition at the UNESCO Palace in Paris, he received the Cross of St. George of the Generalitat of Catalonia, and the Cross of Isabel the Catholic. In 1988 a retrospective exhibition in Japan, in the cities of Kobe and Tokyo. Continues to work with exuberant colors and forms, and rejoins his work a matérica figuration. In 1998 the foundation that bears his name in Palafrugell, and the following year he was awarded the Gold Medal of Merit in the Fine Arts Ministry of Culture is created. It is represented at the National Centre de Arte Reina Sofia Museum, the Tate Gallery in London, the National Catalan Art, the Contemporary Art in Madrid, Barcelona and Saint-Etienne (France),

"Where The Swamps Sing" (2024) By Nadezda, Original Oil Surrealist Painting

"Where The Swamps Sing" (2024) By Nadezda, Original Oil Surrealist Painting

Located in Denver, CO

Nadezda's beautiful new oil on panel painting "Where The Swamps Sing" (2024) is a surrealist Slavic portrait of a woman dressed in traditional Russian clothing, standing stoically in front of a bizarre scene, with iconography of demons' heads towered up with a cat resting atop it, deep in an abstracted symbolic forest. Nadezda is a painter, sculptor, photographer, and concept artist. Her artwork is focused on narratives carefully gathered from the hidden chambers of her imagination as well as live theater-inspired work with actors, dancers, and models. Like a quilt stitched of poetic realities, Nadezda’s mysterious world defies the mundane. With a non-linear creative process flowing between different media, the artist explores various vantage points in her creations. This dynamic approach inspires her mind’s eye to focus on the worlds within and evoke an uninterrupted, creative transmission which is then channeled through her paintings, drawings, sculpture, photography, writing and film.

Raquel. Large format interior with woman portrait and still-life

By Alfredo Roldan

Located in Segovia, ES

"Raquel" is an interior scene of a young woman, stretched out comfortably on a sofa, surrounded by flowers and fruit. She gazes placidly at the artist, who is portraying her dressed in a nightgown and a colorful dressing gown. Oil on canvas. 2003 Measurements: 90 x 200 cm / 35,43 x 78,74" The rich range of colors used and the relaxed gesture of the model envelop the atmosphere of comfort that prevails in the works of this author because, according to his words: “When I use a model I want her to be very comfortable, rested, calm and relaxed. I am not interested in movement in my work, as it always ends up too artificial for my taste and would interfere with the ambiance I am trying to create”. The flattened perspectives, the fractured surfaces, and the graphic stylizations refer to the cubism of Picasso and Juan Gris. There are echoes of Modigliani in the treatment of his female models and we can detect an homage to Gauguin and Matisse, in his playful and sensual manipulation of color. In 2003 Ediciones Sammer publishes in a deluxe edition the book Alfredo Roldán written by the sculptor David Gamella where a large part of his work is reproduced. This painting, Raquel, is reproduced on the cover of the book and also inside on a double page (294-295). ABOUT THE ARTIST Alfredo Roldán (Madrid- Spain, 1965) is a self-taught artist who, at the age of 22, began selling his works at street markets. In 1994 he won the award granted by the City Council of Madrid with the painting “El Baño Azul”, which now hangs in The Museum of Modern Art of Madrid. That year he began to work with the renowned British dealer...

"Ingredients" (2024) By Nadezda, Original Oil Surrealist Portrait Painting

Located in Denver, CO

Nadezda's beautiful new oil on panel painting "Ingredients" (2024) is a surrealist portrait of a young woman, dressed in Russian-inspired clothing and resting curiously during the night beside a plume of mushrooms, among a surreal field of spirits. Behind her, flying away is the spirit of a woman and a cat, and in front float two clay faces among the peonies. Nadezda is a painter, sculptor, photographer, and concept artist. Her artwork is focused on narratives carefully gathered from the hidden chambers of her imagination as well as live theater-inspired work with actors, dancers, and models. Like a quilt stitched of poetic realities, Nadezda’s mysterious world defies the mundane.
