Softly blurred touch – NFT
$140.00Buy NFTThe term ‘bokeh’ comes from the Japanese word, ‘boke’, which means ‘haze’ or ‘blur’. The word has come to be widely associated with the aesthetic quality of out-of-focus blur in a piece of art. Blurring is a nifty effect in painting. It can make the painted image look as if it’s like a fast-motion photograph and imply rapid movement. A computer-generated simulacrum of reflections from the silicon dioxide found in insects’ shells. The compound is a prime ingredient of window glass and fibre-optic cable; a semi-conductor, it’s also a mainstay of computer chips. The article accompanying the source photo described research being conducted into structural colours – that is, colours that result from surface textures that refract, rather than contain, pigment. What seems, at first glance, an op art abstraction thus turns out, when unpacked, to contain an entire disquisition on the meshing of the “natural” world (insects) with its synthetic reproductions both inherent (shell-reflections) and exterior (scientific visual modelling); on the surfaces through which we look (windows) and vectors along which we relay or broadcast information (cables); on digital technology; and on colour and its spectrum – which, of course, means both on painting and on light itself, the very ground and possibility of vision.

Abstract swirls – NFT
$141.00Buy NFTSwirling shapes, an array of colorful patterns… The path of a flowing river cutting through fields of lush vegetation… or maybe you see pure energy and cosmic flow? There is no right or wrong answer to this question. Abstract art is open to interpretation, and that is one of the beautiful things about it. Abstract art doesn’t jump out and declare, Instead, abstract art requires you to have an open, inquiring mind; you must enter the painting and see where it takes you. Abstract art gives you the freedom to explore the artwork and assign your own meaning to the piece. This intensely personal process enriches a viewer’s experience of an artwork. Understanding abstract art does not come naturally for everyone. It is the kind of art that makes some people scratch their heads and say, “My 5-year old could do that.” What people don’t realize is that the best abstract artists have excellent drawing skills, a finely honed sense of composition, and a deep understanding of the workings of color. Most abstract artists have the ability to draw a perfectly rendered rose or a realistic portrait, but they choose not to. Instead they choose to express their creativity by creating a visual experience that is more free and unencumbered by the weight of objects. Abstract art can also make people uneasy because they don’t automatically know what the art is “about” just by a cursory glance. Or they assume that because it doesn’t look like anything, then it is not “about ” anything. Abstract art doesn’t contain recognizable objects, so there is nothing to grasp or hold onto. This can be very confusing, even threatening, to some who are not used to assigning their own meaning to what they see before them. The truth is, abstract art is not “about nothing”. At its basis, it is about form, color, line, texture, pattern, composition and process. These are the formal qualities of artwork, because they describe what the art looks like and how it is created. Abstract art is an exploration of these formal qualities. Meaning is derived from how these formal qualities are used to create a visual (and/or visceral, cerebral, emotional, etc) experience.

Mid-Century Modern Cityscape Painting – NFT
$140.00Buy NFTWelcome! Presenting mid 20th century modern impressionist New York cityscape, Cityscape painting flourished after World War II, already appearing in the repertory of abstract expressionist painters, for example in “City landscape” by Joan Mitchell (1955, Art Institute of Chicago) or in some audacious pictorial experiments by Willem de Kooning. On the way to abstraction we find the figure of Piet Mondrian, who, after emigrating to the United States, created his original visions of New York City, among them the famous “Broadway Boogie Woogie” (1942-43, New York, MOMA) , which the painter Robert Motherwell described with these words: “The Modern City! Precise, rectangular, squared, whether seen from above, below, or on the side; bright lights and sterilized life; Broadway, whites and blacks; and boogie-woogie; the underground music of the at once resigned and rebellious”.
