Giuseppe Santomaso Art

Italian, 1907-1990
Giuseppe Santomaso was born in Venice on September 26, 1907. He studied at the Accademia Di Belle Arti from 1932 to 1934. In 1938 he began his work in graphic design. In 1939, the artist traveled to Paris on the occasion of his first solo exhibition at the Rive Gauche Galerie. Santomaso participates in the Quadrennial of Rome in 1943 and performs illustrations for Paul Eluard. In 1946, he is a founding member of the anti-fascist artists "Organization Nuova Secessione Artistica Italiana-Fronte Nuovo Delle Arti" in Venice. From 1948, Santomaso often participated in the Venice Biennial, where he was awarded the Venice Municipality Prize in 1948. He received the Graziano Prize of the Galleria del Naviglio in Milan in 1956 and the Marzotto Prize for the Mostra Internazionale Di Pittura Contemporanea de Valdagno in 1958, among other awards. Santomaso taught at the Academy of Fine Arts in Venice from 1957 to 1975. His first exhibition in the United States was in 1957 at the Grace Borgenicht Gallery in New York. The Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam organizes a private exhibition of the artist in 1960. In 1961, he participated in the Biennale of São Paulo and traveled to Brazil the following year. A retrospective Santomaso travels from the Kunstverein in Hamburg to the Haus am Lützowplatz in Berlin via the Museum am Ostwall in Dortmund in 1965 and 1966. His work appears in the Bisannual International Engraving in Krakow in 1972 and 1978. Private exhibitions of his work are presented in 1979 by the Joan Miró Foundation in Barcelona and the National Gallery of Modern Art in Munich. The Borgenicht Gallery is organizing an exhibition of Santomaso in the spring of 1983. Santomaso dies on May 23, 1990 in Venice.

Bright Vibrant Pop Art Silkscreen Lithograph Print NYC Abstract Expressionist
By William Scharf
Located in Surfside, FL
Red Angel, intensely and seductively colored: swooning purples and reds, ecstatic lemon yellows, and black construction paper. Jostling shapes, geometric and biomorphic, lyrical and hard-edged, refuse to resolve neatly Assemblage, a bold strategy to keep viewers unsettled and curious, the reward for which are profuse and luscious details: varied incidents of refinement, suggestive signs, most in a private code, not merely ornamental but integral to the overall message. William Scharf (born 1927, Media, PA) is an American artist from New York, he teaches at The Art Students League of New York. Painting with acrylics, he was a member of the New York School movement. Often categorized as a late generation Abstract Expressionist, Known for producing paintings with abstract compositions incorporating biomorphic and geometric forms in vivid colors, the artist was influenced by Surrealism, the Color Field painters, and symbolism. He apprenticed with Mark Rothko and was influenced by his color field paintings. The surrealist painter Arshile Gorky and the Abstract expressionism style found in 1950s New York City also influenced Scharf. His exhibits include San Francisco Art Institute (1969), the Pepperdine University's Frederick R. Weisman Museum of Art (2001), and Richard York Gallery in New York City (2004). In the heyday of Abstract Expressionism, being serious meant following the tenets of the New York School, which required abstract paintings to be spontaneous improvisations, the messier the better. At once hedonistic and disciplined, his brazen paintings are nothing if not promiscuous. The best ones mix the dynamism of gestural abstraction with sensual rhythms of decorative patterning, sometimes souping up the stew with cartoonish symbols and flourishes so ripe they belong in a dandy's fantasies. His exhibits include San Francisco Art Institute (1969), the Pepperdine University's Frederick R. Weisman Museum of Art (2001) and Richard York Gallery in New York City (2004). Scharf's work has been exhibited in a number of galleries, including the Anita Shapolsky Gallery, Meredith Ward Fine Art, and Hollis Taggart Galleries in New York City. Scharf has been an instructor of art at various institutions including The Art Students League, the San Francisco Art Institute, and the School of Visual Arts in New York. He is a member of the Society of Illustrators and the Artists Equity Association.
