About the Item

Antoine Giroux: Capturing the Vibrancy of the Mediterranean Born in Brussels in 1955, Antoine Giroux's journey to artistic expression took a unique path through the realms of music and opera before finding its true voice on the canvas. Inspired by the bold strokes and vivid palettes of the Impressionist and Fauvist movements, Giroux's paintings resonate with the warmth and energy of the Mediterranean landscapes he so passionately portrays. Having spent years honing his craft as an opera singer, Giroux brings a sense of rhythm and harmony to his canvases, reminiscent of the operatic grandeur he once inhabited. Yet, it is in the vibrant hues and dynamic compositions of his paintings that Giroux truly finds his artistic voice, drawing inspiration from masters such as Vlaminck and Derain. Giroux's fearless application of color, reminiscent of the Fauvist tradition, infuses his works with a sense of exuberance and optimism. His sunny landscapes, often featuring the sea, dunes, and pine trees, invite viewers into a world of endless summer, where every brushstroke pulsates with life and emotion. The influence of his early exposure to the Opera House in Paris can be felt in the dramatic intensity of Giroux's compositions, where each painting becomes a stage for the interplay of light and color. Through confident brushwork and bold contrasts, Giroux captures the essence of the Mediterranean with an operatic flair, transporting viewers to sun-drenched shores and idyllic coastal vistas. Giroux's work has been celebrated in prestigious venues such as the Salon du Louvre and numerous galleries across Europe, where his abstract landscapes have captivated audiences with their luminous beauty and emotional depth. Drawing inspiration from his travels to the south of France, St Tropez, Bordeaux, and Corsica, Giroux continues to explore the rich tapestry of the Mediterranean landscape, inviting viewers on a journey of color, light, and pure artistic expression.

William Frederick Timmins was born May 23, 1915 in Chicago, Illinois. His father, Harry L. Timmins (1887-1963), was a celebrated magazine illustrator and co-owner with Frank H. Young (1888-1964) of a successful Chicago advertising agency called Young & Timmins Advertising Illustration Studios. In 1923 Timmins and Young co-founded the American Academy of Art in Chicago. His father's impressive career brought the family a prosperous and privileged lifestyle, which included pleasure trips to Paris and London. In 1934 he began to commute by Metro North train to New York City, where he studied at the Art Students League on West 57th Street. He also took classes at the National Academy of Design on Fifth Avenue near 89th Street. In 1935 he began to study at the Grand Central School of Art, located on the sky-lit top floor of Grand Central Station Terminal. This was the same station he used for his daily commute. In 1935 he began to sell pen and ink story illustrations as well as painted covers to NYC publishers of pulp magazines. During the second half of the 1930s his work appeared in Western Story, Dime Sports, Clues Detective Stories, Thrilling Western, and All Aces Magazine. He and his wife moved to a home on Spectacle Lane in Wilton, CT. This area of Connecticut had become a popular artist community. He socialized with several artist neighbors, such as Benjamin Kimberly Prins (1902-1980), Tom Lovell (1909-1997), Richard Lyon (1913-2002), Al Parker (1906-1985), Rolf Klep (1904-1981), R. G. Harris (1911-2007). During the 1940s his cover illustrations appeared on pulp magazines, such as The Shadow, Clues Detective Stories, Wild West Weekly, and Astounding Science Fiction. All these were published by Street & Smith. In 1944 the family moved to Darien, CT. At first the artist worked in a rented studio in nearby Norwalk, CT, but after a while he converted a vacant family room into an art studio and worked at home. After the war he drew story illustrations for Family Circle and Liberty Magazine. In 1948 his father, Harry L. Timmins, and his brother, Harry L. Timmins, Jr., moved to California to open a lithography business in Hollywood. During the 1950s he illustrated several books for children that were published by Rand McNally, such as Cowboys, Davy Crockett...
