About the Item

Title: Ecriture Liee (Linked Writing) Artist: Jean-Daniel Rohrer (Swiss Canadian, 1960-). Media: Mixed media on Canvas (collage, stencil, chalk and oil on canvas). Year: 2007 Size: 24" x 30" (stretched not framed) Provenance: Purchased in 2007 from Gallery Anthony Curtis, Boston. Signed lower right and also on the back of the canvas. Artist's bio from Artsy: Jean Daniel Rohrer was born in Switzerland in 1960, and immigrated to Canada in 1989, making Montreal his home. Rohrer’s works can be found in many collections around the world, including his painting Ville de Paix on display in the Montreal’s City Hall. In 2010 Rohrer’s sculpture L’Homme de la Paix was donated to de city of Hiroshima in Japan. It is now permanently displayed in Hiroshima’s Palace of Congress. In 2017, Rohrer was received as a member of the Canadian royal Academy of art (RCA) and an art book was published for this occasion by Robert Bernier celebrating Rohrer’s last 20 years of work. Jean-Daniel Rohrer's plastic language stems from the graphic universe; the timeless chronicle and the pictorial tradition, through a distinctive research on the treatment of matter. Painting, collage, pastel, stenciled letters and numbers, mixing fragments of images and photos, signs, graphics, and ideograms are rippling. From this structural complexity emerges an original work with a contrasting character. Jean-Daniel Rohrer’s work is like a memory aid, it is never fixed in a precise temporality. Rather, the artist plays on the ambiguity of memory and history - our collective memory. By radiating from the heart of his paintings, he gradually creates surfaces potentially charged with meaning.

Oil Painting on Canvas by Yang Qian
Located in Atlanta, GA
Title: Hiding in The Jungle Artist: Yang Qian (Chinese; B. 1959) Medium: Oil on canvas Years: purchased circa 1990 A Palm Beach, FL collection An early work by Yang Qian during his sojourn in Florida, USA. The series delved into art history with reinterpretation and overlaying symbolism. The painting is set in a moody tropical jungle at night and is a clear reinterpretation and a dialogue between Henri Rousseau's The Dream and Paul Gauguin's La Femme du Roi. Although the two French artists were contemporaries, they may have not intersected in their personal lives. Pioneering and ground-breaking for their time, their work were celebrated posthumously and served as inspiration for later artists.

"23 V: Countercurrent, " Large Contemporary Oil Painting on Canvas by Renée Rey
Located in New York, NY
In her mixed-media artwork "23 V Countercurrent," Rey explores narratives connecting nature, technology and sustainability. Fusing a Postmodern oeuvre of abstraction and surrealism, with a nod to Tiepolo, Constable and Dali, the artist ignites saturated stems of red, pink, and green pigments in a world where color and form flow in and out of multi-perspectives. Springing forth through space is symbolic iconography. Sea life including fish, manatee and coral swim through currents of air, water and land as the artist examines the dynamic link between them. Engineered towers protect vital H2O for human sustenance while elements of the periodic table depict the equality of all that exists on earth and beyond. Renée Rey...
