Spanish Colonial Cuzco Painting of Archangel Michael
Located in Pasadena, CA
This is a very good Spanish Colonial, Cuzco School (Cuzqueno) painting of the Archangel Michael. The painting appears to have little or no restorations and, as such, is in remarkable condition. We have chosen to leave that painting as found as the patina highlights the depth and character of the painting. We have listed separately two complementary larger paintings of the Virgin Mary and the Archangel Michael acquired from the same estate.
The Cuzco school is a Peruvian Spanish Colonial religious artistic tradition in which Incan spirituality was incorporated into Catholic iconography. These Peruvian paintings incorporate artistic forms that distinguish Cuzqueno paintings from other Spanish Colonial artistic traditions. The Jesuit order, arriving in the mid-16th century, was the principal Catholic order whose mission it was to convert the Inca to Christianity and introduce Christian iconography and European type painting techniques to the Inca capital of Cuzco.

Dancing Sculptures in Resin, a Pair in the Style of Umberto Boccioni
Located in Pasadena, CA
Sculpture is at its most essential, a physical, tactile medium, and need to be touched to be experienced. Handmade resin sculpture is an intricate process that entails the mastery of various skills and techniques.
This pair of dancers, in gun metal patina finish resin, is not just a duo, but a conversation. Two bodies standing up on their respective wooden base, each with their own intricate details, height, singular twists, interstices and curves, ending by energetically coming together to become one, turning the static and the individual in a dynamic couple.
Unfortunately there is no signature.
As you let your hands wandering, closed eyes, you can sense fluidity in their movements, brought to life by soft and rounded lines. Every gesture and sweep emits a unique emotion, as if the two dancers were sharing a whispered conversation, inviting the viewer to witness their intimate exchange.
