Aboriginal Painting by Cornelia Tipuamanturriri, Tiwi Island
Located in NICE, FR
This painting comes from the Jilamara Design art center and dates back to 2013. It is made with earth ochres bound with acrylic pigment. Cornelia is considered a great artist of the first generation from this region. A certificate of authenticity is included. Cornelia Tipuamantumirri was born in Pirlangimpi (Garden Point), Melville Island, around 1930. Her father's ancestral land is Imalu Point, Melville Island, and her mother's ancestral land is Munupi, Melville Island. Her skin group is Warntarringa (Sun) and her dream is Jarrikalani (Turtle). Tipuamantumirri lives and works in Pirlangimpi, where she is an initiated and respected Tiwi elder. Tipuamantumirri uses the kayimwagakimi, a traditional carved wooden painting comb with a single row of teeth. Using a palette of ochres in pinks, yellows, blacks, and browns, her work depicts significant aspects of Tiwi life and culture with repeated dotted lines referencing yirrinkiripwoja (body painting) and the tidal movements of the surrounding seas. Tipuamantumirri, who began painting in 2010, is also an experienced weaver. Key recent solo and group exhibitions: - Warnarringa - Jarrikalani: Sun - Turtle, Alcaston Gallery, Melbourne (2014) - Cornelia Tipuamantumirri - New Paintings, Alcaston Gallery, Melbourne (2013) - Purunguparri (Stringy Bark Hut), Alcaston Gallery, Melbourne (2011) - Ngawa Munupula/Ngawa Kiripapiranjuwi: New Paintings from Munupi Art on the Tiwi Islands, Outstation Gallery, Darwin (2015) - Cornelia Tipuamantumirri and Delores Tipuamantumirri: New Paintings, Martin Browne Contemporary, Sydney (2015) - We are Tiwi: Munupi Arts from Melville Island, Artitja Fine Art, Fremantle, WA (2014) - The Tiwi: Art from Jilamara & Munupi Art Centres, Kluge-Ruhe Aboriginal Art Collection, Virginia, USA (2014) - Nginingawila Munupi Jilamara: Our Paintings from Munupi, Marshall Arts, Adelaide (2013) - Kirilima + Jarrikalani - Jungle Fowl + Loggerhead Turtle...

Young woman with jug, Carrara marble, signed Bonnal, early 20th century
Located in NICE, FR
Charming sculpture of a young woman carrying a jug, signed by Bonnal on the back and inspired by “Rebecca at the Well” by 19th-century Italian School artist Guglielmo Pugi. The sculpture in fine white Carrara marble, created between the end of the 19ᵉ century and the beginning of the 20ᵉ century, depicts a pensive, lascivious young woman dressed in the fashion of the turn of the century: she wears a turban from which escapes curls of hair and a bracelet characteristic of the period; the cut of her dress is also very elaborate for a simple peasant woman. The finely embroidered motifs on the dress and turban are further evidence of the sculptor's mastery. A delicate, feminine piece that will look great in a hallway or on a dressing table, and will make a lovely gift for an aesthete woman. Guglielmo Pugi lived in Florence, where he ran a sculpture workshop with his two sons. Their workshop, “Guglielmo Pugi e Figli”, was mainly dedicated to exports, particularly to the United States. Guglielmo Pugi's work, emblematic of the Art Nouveau style, is characterized by direct carving in alabaster and Carrara marble (often white or veined). Some of his sculptures are now housed in Volterra's Historical Alabaster Museum. Many of his works were shown at major international exhibitions, such as the 1901 Pan-American Exposition in Buffalo and the 1904 Exposition...

Albert Chubac, Composition, Oil on Paper, circa 1960, France
By Albert Chubac
Located in Nice, Cote d' Azur
Albert Chubac (1925-2008), Composition, Oil on paper, Representing a man with balloons and horses, Workshop stamp lower right, Framed, circa 1960, France. Measures : Width 65 cm, Height 50 cm. Albert Chubac was born in Geneva in 1920. After studying decorative art, then at the Beaux-Arts in Geneva, he obtained grants to travel to Italy, Algeria, Spain, Egypt and Greece, stages which will mark his work. He settled in 1964 on the Côte d ‘Azur in Aspremont in a very Spartan house, attracted by the light, the sun and the colors of nature. The year 1967 is the year of the establishment of the School of Nice. He will work and exhibit alongside Aman, César, Tinguely, Gilli, Ben, Rayse, etc ... In 1990, it was the consecration with the opening of MAMAC in Nice. Albert Chubac then becomes accessible to the general public. He will use solid primary colors, will develop modifiable structures and then develop the collages in three dimensions. Gradually, he broke away from his classical training and figuration to move towards abstraction through the encounters and influences of contemporary artists. Always in search of simplicity, He will radically limit the plastic means with a reduced palette, geometric shapes and simple gestures to concentrate on minimum conditions of possibility. His work, which lies between constructivism and geometric abstraction, is playful and imbued with the artist's joie de vivre. In 2004, following the major retrospective at the Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Nice, he donated around one hundred works to the City of Nice. Albert Chubac died in 2008 in Tourrette-Levens, near Aspremont.
