Mid Century Modern Southwest Geometric Abstract Oil Painting 1959 Art Calder

About the Item

Marvelous. GEOMETRIC ABSTRACT PAINTING 1959 After Alexander Calder This Geometric Abstract painting is an important and vibrant work by artist F.S. Tinnuzo. Done in 1959, it captures the crescendo of the mid century abstraction period. This painting was created while 1959 Cadillacs were being released with soaring tail fins, Castro became the Premier of Cuba and the first Barbie dolls were introduced to a generation of children. Within the abstractions you can almost sense all these conflicting and yet interlocking aspects of the 'modern world'. Visually, the work is conveys organized chaos. The embodiment of modern thought in art; random form and shapes that have a deeper meaning collectively than any single component. Simultaneously, while signalling about the future, the work pursues a subtler quest with its visual roots that hark to primitive art and mankind's cultural beginnings. This piece evokes some of Alexander Calder's paintings. The way it creates a sea of shapes and dominantly features primary colors. A very primal geometric aesthetic is established. The work is powerful, compelling and timeless. Art and frame are both In great condition and quite well preserved. Original Frame has been tinted both silver and red by the artist, giving it a surreal glow that beautifully complements the art. A wonderful artwork for your NY penthouse, Palm Springs atomic ranch or West Palm Beach estate!

  • Painting by Peter Keil, Mid-Century Modern Art "Abstract Face", C 1959, Framed
    By Peter Keil
    Located in New York, NY
    Peter Robert Keil was born to an artist blacksmith father whom he lost very early in his childhood during the Second World War. During the end phase of the war, Keil's mother, also an artistically talented woman, took her son and struggled her way to West Berlin where they settled. This is where Peter Robert Keil grew up in the working-class neighborhood of Berlin-Wedding and where he discovered his interest in painting – particularly in expressionistic artists and in Pablo Picasso's work. From 1954 on, the East Berlin-based painter Otto Nagel became his mentor and taught him first craft skills and painting techniques. In 1954, he began his traineeship as an artist metal worker and between 1959 and 1961, he studied at the University of Arts in Berlin. When the Berlin Wall was built, he lost contact with his mentor Otto Nagel and from the early 60s on, Keil started to spend more and more time abroad. During his studies at the University of Arts in Berlin, he came in contact with numerous other artists who later became influential artists of their generation, like for example Georg Baselitz, Eugen Schönebeck, Markus Lüpertz and Joachim Schmettau. During his time in Mallorca, he also met with Joan Miró in his studio several times. From the early 60s on, Keil established studios in Paris, London, Berlin and in the US. Today he mainly lives and works in Zimmerau (Bavaria, Germany), Berlin and Los Angeles. This painting is painted on newspaper. It was painted in Palma Mallorca...
