Georges Ferrato
Untitled "Composition"

1985

About the Item

Georges Ferrato Composition Oil on Canvas 57.5 x 44.5 in, 146 x 113 cm 1985 Signed at bottom right, signed dated and titled on the back Georges Ferrato (born in 1949 in Aix-en-Provence) is perfect harmony: a universal substance, a resource that we need to fill existence with poetry, peace and construction. The self-taught artist, pushed by his entourage, has been exhibiting for several decades. A "sculptor of light" for the past fifty years, it was the emotion of a landscape in Provence that made him move from expressionist figuration to abstraction. "If FERRATO's painted work imposed itself naturally, without media fracas or promotional operation, both in France and abroad, it is because he managed to share this inner music that Van Gogh speaks of in his letters." - Joseph Paul Schneider In 1980, when he arrived at abstraction, his line changed, a total freedom was established, and a new discovery emerged in his works. Colours, elements and materials will intertwine, it will be a new signature of the artist. His invigorating painting becomes food for the mind and heart.

    Located in New York, NY
    Alan Fenton (1927 - 2000) Untitled, 1958-1960 Oil on canvas 90 x 84 inches Fenton's quiet and contemplative nonobjective paintings and drawings were widely recognized for their demanding yet understated means of revealing a serious and sober essence. He identified greatly with Mark Rothko, a friend, as well as Adolph Gottlieb and Jack Tworkov, with whom he had studied privately. Fenton painted in New York City in the late 50's as the explosion of Abstract Expressionism turned into a rebellion against gestural, emotional painting. More concerned about his art than his posture, he expanded upon a tradition in painting with influences as diverse as Whistler and Turner as well as Ad Reinhardt and Joseph Albers. Alan Fenton was born in Cleveland in 1927, studied at the Cleveland School of Art, The Arts Students League, The New School, and at NYU, earning his BFA at Pratt Institute, where he later taught painting for many years. At seventeen, Fenton served in the Merchant Marines where he began a career as a professional boxer, a skill he had honed on the streets. He moved successfully through the graphic design business en route to becoming a painter in New York at the height of the art revolution of the fifties and sixties. Fenton enjoyed success with his subtle washes and pencil drawings as well as large abstract...
