About the Item

We are calling this piece a painting as shorthand… the truth is, it’s so much more! The eye doesn’t know where to begin or where to end in this visual wonderland. “All Angles” was created by George Caso for CHRISHAWN Studios. The piece is a magnificent melange of Memphis style abstract elements. Caso has somehow managed to command multiple mediums and techniques into one harmonious composition in the same way a musician harnesses the diverse sounds of a band. The aesthetic impact is amplified by it’s monumental scale. The piece is over 6.5 feet long and over 4 feet high! The artwork consists mostly of painted, gold and silver leafed, cut paper arranged on canvas.. however that is a simplified explanation. Luckily, Caso and CHRISHAWN provided some text about the work on the backside. Here is their word-for-word description (including unusual punctuation and capitalizations.) This piece is housed in a gold colored metal frame and acrylic pane protecting the art. There is a wire on back to hang. “An Original Design This subject was produced using one or combining several mediums. Within the Studio environment of CHRISHAWN, artists and Craftspeople create originals in Oil, Acrylic, and Watercolor. We also work in mixed media combinations of Serigraph and Watercolor, Limited Edition hand-colored Etchings, Castings in paper and stone, hand made papers and collage, mono prints and hand-rubbed embossing and metallic metal leafing in gold, silver and copper. The enthusiasm of our Studio focuses on our ability to create for you…” 80.25” Long x 2 1/8” Deep x 48.25” High Condition: No damage to art. Frame and acrylic are very clean but may have a few scratches.
