About the Item

The perfect gift for the cigar lover: a hand-painted cigar box by world-renowned Giancarlo Impiglia. Born in Rome, Impiglia moved to New York in the 70s, where he established a signature style on the shoulders of Futurism and Cubism, his technical skill underpinning his eclecticism and allowing him to indulge in an appetite for complexity. Whereas at a glance his vibrant paintings with their dynamic compositions may seem simply aesthetically pleasing, their deliberate beauty is a critique on society’s preoccupation with materialism and superficiality, as beneath this façade lies the true meaning of his work: each figure is depicted as indifferent, faceless satires defined entirely by the folds of their gowns and the glitter of their jewelry. As they blend together into one another and into the background, forming a single tapestry of colors and forms, their individual identities and true selves—complete with ambitions, desires, and obsessions—remain concealed. The figures therefore become an extension of Impiglia’s critique as a representation of society, and the very act of creating beautiful works and their content are united by a singular, powerful vision. With his work only going up in value, this is not an opportunity to be missed.

  • A Whiter Shade Of Pale - 5"x7", White Dress, Grey, Feminine, Figurative Painting
    By Andrea Stajan-Ferkul
    Located in Mississauga, Ontario
    In this delicate dress painting on masonite, the combination of paint, pencil and mixed media build up a textured, figurative composition. A blend of detail and loose brush work communicates a feminine, ethereal impression with an outcome both expressive and refined. Small art can personalize a space. Make it part of a table top collection, lean it on a book shelf or have it shadow framed to make it more of a statement piece. (Frames shown as reference only) // Andrea Stajan-Ferkul is a Canadian artist whose work conveys a sense of experimentation through the use of paint, fabric collage and abstract mark-making. While not exclusive to fashion, dresses have been a compositional focus throughout her oeuvre. With an emphasis on timelessness, her series of dress paintings shift between realistic representation and interpretive impressions. In contrast, her series of abstract works embrace minimalism, considerate to a restrained palette and composition. Stajan-Ferkul began her career in fashion advertising before shifting her focus to fine art in 2000. Her work has been exhibited widely through galleries and art fairs, and hangs in private and public collections across Canada, US and Europe. A graduate of Sheridan College of Art and Design, Stajan-Ferkul's paintings can be found in numerous public and private collections, her work has been published in magazines and book covers, and prints are distributed internationally. In 2009, Stajan-Ferkul was invited to exhibit her work in Ottawa’s Rideau Hall, hosted by (then) Governor General of Canada, Michaëlle Jean. keywords: fashion art, black and white, mixed media, contemporary art...
