Drawing an intentional parallel to the history of the Spanish Empire in the Californias, Rashid emphasizes the power of the colonial Frenglish as he portrays them with hyperbolic advantages such as weaponry from the twenty-first century, vibrant red muscle cars, and superhuman powers.

More Solo exhibition of new paintings by Kevin Lowenthal opens at Derek Eller Gallery NEW YORK, NY.- Derek Eller Gallery is presenting a solo exhibition of new paintings by Kevin Lowenthal entitled Mannequins in Audience in the North Room.

In 2 Blonde Mannequins in Conversation, the pattern of the figures’ hair matches that of the curtains. Rather than acting as hard, definitive boundaries, the curtains appropriate the fluidity ...

More PhotoGalleries Gabriele Münter TARWUK Awol Erizku Leo Villareal Flashback On a day like today, Anglo-French artist Alfred Sisley was born October 30, 1839. Alfred Sisley (30 October 1839 - 29 January 1899) was an Impressionist landscape painter who was born and spent most of his life in France, but retained British citizenship. He was the most consistent of the Impressionists in his dedication to painting landscape en plein air (i.e., outdoors). He never deviated into figure painting and, unlike Renoir and Pissarro, never found that Impressionism did not fulfill his artistic needs. In this image: French businessman Pierre de Gunzbourg, flanked by his son Vivien, left, looks at the painting, "Soleil de Printemps, Le Loing, " (Spring Sun, Le Loing) by impressionist Alfred Sisley at the Paris courthouse, Friday, June 18, 2004. © 1996 - 2024 Founder: Ignacio Villarreal (1941 - 2019) Editor & Publisher: Jose Villarreal Art Director: Juan José Sepúlveda Ramírez Writer: Ofelia Zurbia Betancourt
