Second edition of "the most studied of the architectural treatises of the Renaissance" (Millard), first published in 1570 in Venice by Domenico de Franceschi, with new typesetting and initials but with the titles and illustrations printed from the original plates, and edited by Andrea Palladio's son Silla."Palladio's lasting influence on architectural style in many parts of the world was exercised less through his actual buildings than through.his textbook. This is divided into four sections: orders and elementary problems, domestic buildings, public building and town planning and temples. Palladio's style was directly inspired by Roman classical models through the writings of Vitruvius and Alberti. Its characteristics are those of classicism: symmetry, order, fixed mathematical relations of the parts to each other and to the whole, logic and monumentality. Though it is true that Palladio in his later period adopted some of the mannerist vernacular, his buildings remain essentially classical, in contrast to the baroque style of the period in Rome and Piedmont."

ADRIAN SCHIESS (Switzerland, 1959)."Ciel en mars", 2004.Oil, lacquer, acrylic and transparent film on aluminium.Signed, titled and dated on the back.It bears a label from the Galerie Nächst St.Stephan gallery in Vienna.Provenance: Important Spanish Collection.Size: 50 x 60 cm.The title "Sky in March" reveals that, despite the abstract appearance, an idyllic landscape is hidden behind the pictorial material. This is how Adrian Schiess works with abstraction: evoking through titles. These abstractions are made of densely lacquered aluminium panels. They are usually displayed on the floor, which forces the viewer to move between them, and thus to become part of the artist's process. In this way, they cannot be defined as paintings or sculptures. They are born out of a dialogue with each visitor: "I don't consider the panels as pictorial objects. They are things next to other things. They are paintings on whose glossy surfaces reality is reflected," explains the artist. Adrian Schiess, born in Zurich, lives and works in Mouans-Sartoux, France. His work flirts with a variety of formats (photography, canvas, reflective coloured boards...) but with a single objective: to deal with the appearance of the real. Within contemporary art, they show a commitment to abstraction, which, according to Adrian Schiess, is the only way to show that which is not subject to any extrinsic determination of its own. Schiess has had solo exhibitions at the Fonds Régional d'Art Contemporain PACA, Marseille, France, the Bündner Kunstmuseum, Chur, Switzerland, the Musée d'Art Moderne, St. Etienne, France, Indianapolis, USA, and the Museum of Contemporary Art, Indianapolis, USA. St. Etienne, France, Indianapolis Museum of Art, Indiana, Städtische Galerie Nordhorn, Germany, Villa Merkel, Galerien der Stadt Esslingen, Kunstmuseum Solothurn, Switzerland, Fundación la Caixa, Barcelona, Neues Museum, Staatliches Museum für Kunst und Design, Nürnberg, Kunsthaus Bregenz, FRAC Bourgogne, Dijon, France, Neue Galerie am Landesmuseum Johanneum, Graz, The New York Kunsthalle, New York, Kunsthalle Zurich, Switzerland, and numerous institutional group exhibitions worldwide.

Signed, titled and dated on the back.Catalogued in the book "A luminous world", page 126.Size: 130 x 97 cm; 134 x 100,5 cm (frame).Willy Ramos emigrated at the age of fourteen from his hometown, Pueblo Bello, to Valencia, where he currently lives. In Valencia he studied at the Escuela de Bellas Artes de San Carlos, graduating in 1974. Since then he has not ceased to hold exhibitions, both individual and collective. He later completed his studies with a course at the Escuela de Pintura Mural Contemporánea de Sant Cugat del Vallès, in Barcelona, and another in Engraving and Lithography at the Instituto Estatal de Arte de Urbino, in Italy. He also holds a Doctorate Cum Laude in Fine Arts from the Polytechnic University of Valencia, and is a tenured lecturer there. His paintings are reminiscent of those of great 20th century masters such as Kandinsky and Matisse; instead of literally representing his favourite subjects - flowers, landscapes and figures - Willy Ramos paints an idea of nature, and does so with a vibrant chromatism, working in oil, watercolour and charcoal. This painter has exhibited in various art galleries and art centres, and has also participated in international fairs such as Art Madrid, ARTBO or those of Toulouse, Marbella, Milan, Parma or Miami, among others. He is currently represented in centres and institutions such as the Museum of Contemporary Art of Elche and the Caja Mediterráneo Collection, among others.

JOSEP GUINOVART BERTRAN (Barcelona, 1927 - 2007).Untitled.Oil on cardboard.Signed in the lower right corner.Size: 51 x 74,5 cm; 75 x 98 cm (frame).Josep Guinovart trained at the Escuela de Maestros Pintores, at the Escuela de Artes y Oficios and in the classes of the FAD. He had his first solo exhibition at the Syra galleries in Barcelona in 1948. He soon acquired solid prestige, collaborated with Dau al Set and took part in the October, Jazz and Eleven Salons. In the 1950s, thanks to a grant, he lived in Paris, where he became deeply acquainted with the work of Cézanne and Matisse, who, together with Miró and Gaudí, were to be his most important influences. In 1955, together with Aleu, Cuixart, Muxart, Mercadé, Tàpies and Tharrats, he formed the Taüll group, which brought together the avant-garde artists of the time. Around 1957 he began an informalist and abstract tendency, with a strong material presence both through the incorporation of various elements and objects (burnt wood, boxes, discarded objects) and through the application of techniques such as collage and assemblage. From the 1960s onwards he moved away from the poetics of Informalism and began to produce works full of signs and gestures, which contain a strong expressive charge in the lines and colours. During the 1970s he systematically used materials such as sand, earth, clay, straw and fibre cement, and in the following decade he focused on experimenting with the three-dimensional projection of his works, which took the form of the creation of environments or spatial settings such as the one entitled Contorn-extorn (1978). Guinovart's artistic output is very varied: mural paintings, theatre sets and scenographies, such as the one made for Federico García Lorca's Blood Wedding, book illustrations, poster design, tapestries and sculptures. He took part in the Biennials of São Paulo (1952 and 1957), Alexandria (1955) and Venice (1958, 1962 and 1982), and his prizes include the City of Barcelona in 1981, the National Plastic Arts Prize in 1990 and the Generalitat's Plastic Arts Prize in 1990. In 1994 the Espai Guinovart was opened in Agramunt, Lérida, a private foundation with a permanent exhibition of the artist's work. He is represented in the Museums of Contemporary Art in Barcelona, Madrid and Mexico City, the Museum of Open Air Sculpture in Santa Cruz de Tenerife, the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, the Museo de Bellas Artes in Bilbao, the Museo San Telmo in San Sebastián, the Museo Eusebio Sempere in Alicante, the Museo de Navarra in Tafalla, the Casa de las Américas in Havana, the Bocchum Museum in Germany, the Museo de Bellas Artes in Long Island, New York, and the Museo Patio Herreriano in Valladolid.

MANUEL MOLI (La Portella, Lleida, 1936 - Terrassa, 2016)."Machine with spheres".Oil on canvas.Signed in the lower right corner. Titled on the back.With label on the back of the Godula Buchholz Gallery.Measurements: 73 x 60 cm; 74 x 61 cm (frame).Painter, draughtsman and engraver. His painting reflects the influence of predecessors of surrealism as Brueghel and Goya, characterised by a tenebrous fantasy that acts in conjunction with his figures, fabulous beings and scenic stagings; representations that are the receptacle of an inordinate imagination but at the same time trapped in itself. As for the plastic arts, self-taught, he presented his first exhibitions of ink drawings in 1959 and 1965 at the Centro Excursionista de Terrassa and later in various galleries in Arenys de Mar, Barcelona, Mataró, Sitges and also, of course, at the Friends of the Arts and Musical Youth of Terrassa, until 1973, when he exhibited at the Adrià Gallery in Barcelona, a reference space for the art of the seventies in Catalonia due to its support for the awakening of a new artistic sensitivity in our country. With his incorporation into the world of the great galleries, Molí went from working exclusively in drawing to producing oil paintings that were exhibited for decades in Catalan and Spanish cities as well as in various cities all over the world, including, for example, Asunción, Basel, Stockholm, Munich, New York, Nuremberg... both in individual and group exhibitions, and which can be seen in museums of modern and contemporary art in Barcelona, Stockholm, Madrid, Mataró, Nuremberg, Seville and Tarragona.

JAUME PLENSA (Barcelona, 1955)."Tear" (Jerusalem), 1998.Collage of photography and plastic glue and plastic cover. Issue 19/30. Print run of 30 and three PA and 2 EHC.Work reproduced in the artist's catalogue raisonné and on his website.Publisher: Edición T.Barcelone.Printer; Magí Baleta, Barcelona.Signed in the lower right corner and justified in the lower left corner.Size: 40 x 26,5 cm; 21 x 10,5 cm (frame).This work belongs to the suite of 5 works (Tear (Jerusalem), Lips (Multindus II), Sigh (Réunion), Nail (Tokyo) and Eyes (Granada).Plensa studied at La Llotja School and at the Superior de Bellas Artes de Sant Jordi, both in Barcelona. He excelled in sculpture, drawing and engraving. His work focuses on the relationship between man and his environment, often questioning the role of art in society and the position of the artist. He currently lives in Paris, and was recently awarded an honorary doctorate by the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Plensa began his career working with wrought iron mixed with polyester. Between 1983 and 1984 he began to mould iron using the casting technique, and developed a sculptural concept based on zoomorphic elements. His work gradually evolved, and he is now considered a precursor of Spanish neo-expressionism. In the nineties he introduced modifications in his work in both material and formal terms, and began to use different materials such as metal scraps, polyester and resins. During these years he produced series of walls, doors and architectural constructions, seeking to give space an absolute protagonist role. Between 1999 and 2003 Plensa became one of the pillars of world scenography, reinterpreting four classical operas by Falla, Debussy, Berlioz and Mozart with "La Fura dels Baus", and alone in a contemporary theatrical production, "La pareti della solitudine", by Ben Jelloun. He has had solo and group exhibitions all over the world, including a retrospective at the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía in 2000. In June 2008, he unveiled his work "Breathing", a memorial to journalists killed in the line of duty, at the BBC headquarters in London. Throughout his career he has received numerous distinctions, such as the Medal of the Knights of Arts and Letters in 1993, awarded by the French Ministry of Culture, and the National Prize for Plastic Arts in 1997, awarded by the Generalitat of Catalonia. Considered one of the leading representatives of the new Spanish art of expressionist tendency, his work is present in the best national and international galleries and art fairs, as well as in the main museums of Europe and the United States, such as the MOMA in New York, the Kemper in Kansas, the Museo Patio Herreriano in Valladolid, the Palazzo Forti in Verona, the MACBA and the Museo Reina Sofía in Madrid.

TAKASHI MURAKAMI (Tokyo, 1962)."Flower cushion.Soft sculpture. Limited edition.Official cushion of KaiKai Kiki Co. Ltd.With labels.Measures: 60 x 60 x 15 cm.The Happy Flower by Murakami has a different design on each side, with an exultant face on the front and a peaceful face on the back. It is the official cushion distributed by KaiKai and Kiki, the name of the KaiKai and Kiki Co. foundation founded by Takashi Murakami in 2001, which took over the work of the Hiropon factory, which was founded in 1996. Its objectives as a company are based on support for the production and promotion of works of art, the management and support of young artists and the dissemination of their work.Murakami is one of the most influential artists of the Japanese post-war generation. Takashi Murakami was educated at the Tokyo National University of Fine Arts and Music, where he graduated with a degree in Nihonga (traditional Japanese painting). In 1990 he was introduced to contemporary art by his partner and friend Masato Nakamura, and in 1993 he created his alter ego Mr. DOB. He then began to be recognised both inside and outside Japan for his particular synthesis of traditional Japanese art, the contemporary trends of his country (anime, manga, etc.) and American culture, mainly pop culture. In his work, Murakami conveys a critical vision of current Japanese society, the legacy of the country's cultural tradition, its evolution after the Second World War and its relationship with the Western world, especially with the United States. In his writings he coined the term "Superflat" to define his personal artistic style, a term that fits a work characterised by two-dimensionality and which also criticises the very structure of art, blurring the boundaries between high and low culture. In fact, his output spans multiple art forms, from painting and sculpture to industrial design, anime, fashion and other popular culture media and merchandising objects. His trilogy of exhibitions "Superflat" (2000, 2002 and 2005) has been shown at major art centres around the world, including the Parco Gallery in Tokyo, MOCA in Los Angeles, the Fondation Cartier in Paris and the Serpentine Gallery in London. Between 2008 and 2009 he was also the subject of retrospective exhibitions at MOCA, the Brooklyn Museum in New York, the Museum für Moderne Kunst in Frankfurt and the Guggenheim in Bilbao. Murakami is currently represented in leading museums around the world, including MoMA in New York, the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston and many others.

SALVADOR DALÍ I DOMÈNECH (Figueras, Girona, 1904 - 1989)."Crucifixion", 1964.Etching and drypoint on paper. Copy 4/150.Signed, dated and numbered in pencil.Measurements: 66 x 50 cm; 90 x 71 cm.During his early years, Dalí discovered contemporary painting during a family visit to Cadaqués, where he met the family of Ramon Pichot, an artist who travelled regularly to Paris. Following Pichot's advice, Dalí began to study painting with Juan Núñez. In 1922, Dalí stayed at the famous Residencia de Estudiantes in Madrid to begin studying Fine Arts at the San Fernando Academy. However, before his final exams in 1926, he was expelled for claiming that there was no one there fit to examine him. That same year Dalí travelled to Paris for the first time. There he met Picasso, and established certain formal characteristics that would become distinctive of all his work from then on. During this period Dalí held regular exhibitions in both Barcelona and Paris, and joined the Surrealist group based in the Parisian district of Montparnasse. The painter landed in America in 1934, thanks to the art dealer Julian Levy. Following his first solo exhibition in New York his international reputation was definitively consolidated, and from then on he exhibited his work and gave lectures all over the world. Most of his production is housed in the Dalí Theatre-Museum in Figueras, followed by the collection of the Salvador Dalí Museum in St. Petersburg (Florida), the Reina Sofía in Madrid, the Salvador Dalí Gallery in Pacific Palisades (California), the Espace Dalí in Montmartre (Paris) and the Dalí Universe in London.

There he began his training at the School of Arts and Crafts, and later at the Higher School of Fine Arts. He won first prize at the University Painting Exhibition, which enabled him to take part for the first time in group exhibitions in Barcelona and Madrid in 1955 and 1956. In 1957 he obtained a grant from the French government to further his studies at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris and at the Académie de la Grande Chaumière. In the French capital he came into contact with a different artistic and intellectual scene, which opened him up to new ideas. After this period he travelled, again on a scholarship, to London, where he attended classes at Saint Martin's School of Art. After his first solo exhibition, at the Liberty Gallery in London in 1958, Navarro organised personal exhibitions in Spain, England, Belgium, Switzerland, France, Italy, Brazil, Mexico, Panama and the United States.

Koerner, William Kentridge: Smoke, Ashes, Fable (Brussels: Mercatorfonds, 2017) p.31Casspirs Full of Love as a group of works is a testament to William Kentridge's multi-disciplinary and multi-layered practice. The various incarnations of the subject, made between 1988 and 1989, include a drawing, an encaustic, a screenprinted banner and the present drypoint, itself printed in two phases, between 1989 and 2000. The satirical title of the work, inscribed prominently to the right in looping cursive handwriting, refers to a personal message overheard by Kentridge on a popular radio program, from a mother to her son in the white South African defence force: this message comes to you from your mom with Casspirs full of love. Casspirs were armoured riot-control vehicles deployed by the South African defence force under the National Party regime of apartheid (1948-94), for the forceful patrol of black townships during the state of emergency declared in 1985 and renewed until 1990, leading to arbitrary racial arrests and persecution. The tense juxtaposition of love and death, affection and violence, also expressed textually: what comfort now? at left, Not A Step at lower centre, highlight the contradictions inherent to the apartheid state. The work also resonates with scenes from William Kentridge's 1989 film Johannesburg, 2nd Greatest City after Paris (see Lot 1 on previous page), while the heads were inspired by drawings the artist made in 1988 in Florence, based on Giotto's early 14th century frescoes in Santa Croce, that he later cut up and rearranged, and were also influenced by a Tony Cragg bronze sculpture of carved beetroot heads he saw in Florence that same year. As William Kentridge said: The print became a combination of Giotto, Cragg and 1980s South African radio. It has come to be known as one of Kentridge's most overtly political projects, and its importance is reflected in the fact that impressions of the print appear in significant international collections such as those of the Metropolitan Museum and the MOMA in New York, the Johannesburg Art Gallery, and the Tate in London.Printmaking has always been primary to Kentridge's practice as an artist, and the highly charged, textural surface and intensity of contrasts in the inking and composition of Casspirs Full of Love demonstrate his masterful exploration of the etching and drypoint mediums. The impression presented here provides the final version of the image as printed by master printer Jack Shirreff at 107 Workshop, Wiltshire, England in 2000.

Eckstein's story is related through his personal meditations on a failed love affair, the Johannesburg landscape which stands as a silent witness to the atrocities of the apartheid era, and his own internal psychic landscape, represented by images of MRI brain scans. The title of the exhibition refers to a biblical episode in which a disembodied hand appears before King Belshazzar of Babylon and writes a message on the wall.

He has two much younger brothers. Glasgow, as the backdrop to his early childhood, remains a powerfully influential memory. He is a city boy. In the late 1940s, when he was about nine or ten - he can't remember exactly when - the family moved to Scarborough. There, at the age of eleven, he entered the local Grammar School. Is Jack a Yorkshireman too, if it is possible to be so by adoption? He is certainly a Northerner, by loyalty, prejudice and temperament.   Education   Scarborough School of Art.

René Romero Schuler Embeya, 2022 Acrylic on Paper Signed verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) About   René Romero Schuler is an American painter and sculptor whose work is directly connected to her strong belief in the power of femininity and the stories women have to tell. Embracing the contrast between perceptions of femininity and the complexity of female lives - sometimes not conventionally "pretty" but fascinating and powerful - Schuler's work offers an independent, strong and beautiful vision of womanhood that seeks to provoke thought and empower others. Schuler's own story is one of incredible strength and tenacity, born out of a personal journey that both challenged and shaped her, ultimately allowing her to find healing and joy through her art, and to share that journey with others. Born in Chicago, she spent part of her childhood in Ecuador with her grandparents, before returning to the city's north side and a difficult homelife that prompted her to leave home at an early age. On her own as a teen, Schuler found both solace and a profession in her lifelong talent for creating artwork, eventually building a robust business around commissioned work for designers of hospitality environments and becoming a savvy, successful entrepreneur. Meanwhile, her self-taught fine art practice continued as a constant outlet for her creativity and vision - work that allowed her inner life and past traumas to make their way onto canvas, transforming pain into joy through the alchemy of art.   Select Exhibitions/Awards   Currently represented by galleries across the U.S. and in France, Schuler has had exhibitions throughout the U.S. as well as in France, Italy, Greece, Singapore and Lebanon, and in major international art fairs Expo Chicago, Art Miami, Palm Beach Contemporary, Red Dot, Art Hamptons, Dallas Art Fair and Art Silicon Valley. Her work is a part of the permanent collections of The Union League Club of Chicago, Loyola University Museum of Art (LUMA) in Chicago, Grand Valley State University in Michigan, Coral Springs Museum of Art and St. Thomas University Museum of Art - Sardiñas Gallery in Miami. Her art, as well as selected essays and poetry, has also been collected into published works: René Romero Schuler: Life and Works, 2013; René Romero Schuler, Paintings 2016 and René Romero Schuler, 2019.

Yet, the innate human nature that drives us to judge one another based on nothing more than face value is a notion that fascinates me and thoroughly influences my work. In every work I create, I strive to show the imperfection, stress and underlying beauty of the being I portray. There are no fine characteristics or clearly defined attributes to my figures -- they are everyone and no one. The meaning lies in the representation of the image, not the image or the "face value" itself. With a fluid and meditative approach to my work, this understanding emerges - our inner beauty transcends the physical, emotional and mental barriers that our life experiences have created within us. I hope to tap into the need to realize and embrace that transcendence with work deeply connected to my soul, and I attempt to convey that truth in everything I do.

Caroline Wong Magnum, 2022 Acrylic and Pencil on Paper Signed verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) About   Caroline Wong's work responds to traditional, restricted representations of East Asian women. For Wong, subverting these ideals is the essence of her practice. Her beginnings, as an artist, lay in more traditional forms of portraiture, yet, as she has grown, she has nurtured the epicurean side of herself, moving towards more excitable, expressive mark-making driven by a hedonistic desire for fun. She likens creating to eating. In both, she becomes consumed by the moment of pleasure, detaching herself from the world. The final image presents a hot, sticky portal of pleasure and the senses. The scintillating heat of her portraits is a visual representation of this joy and decadence, whilst also being reminiscent of the chaos and colour of Southeast Asia. Whether depicting female friendships or obdurately exhibiting female pleasure in food, her work is a joyful push-back against tradition, celebrating the beauty in excess.   Education   2019-2021 Masters in Fine Art, City and Guilds of London Art School, London 2016-2018 Diploma in Contemporary Portraiture, The Art Academy, London   Select Exhibitions/Awards   2022 Angels with Dirty Faces, Ojiri Gallery, London Artificial Paradises (solo), Soho Revue, London Cats and Girls (solo), Soy Capitán, Berlin Go Figure!, Daniel Raphael Gallery, London À la carte, Tchotchke Gallery, New York Eat Drink Man Woman, 180 Strand, London Lotus Eaters, Indigo + Madder, London Friends and Family, Pi Artworks, London In the Land of Cockaigne, Quench Gallery, Margate 2021 ING Discerning Eye, Mall Galleries, London MA Show, City and Guilds of London Art School Drawn Out, Drawing Room, London Drawing Biennial 2021, Drawing Room, London 2019 Society of Women's Artists 158th annual exhibition, The Mall Galleries, London 2018 Society of Women's Artists 157th annual exhibition, The Mall Galleries, London Prizes Drawing Biennial Bursary Award (2021) Liberty Specialty Markets Art Prize (2018) Society of Women Artists' Derwent Special Prize for Materials (2018) Message from Art On A Postcard: Please do not bid if you intend to sell on the artwork.

The truth about painting. The truth about surface. The truth about making and the process that evolves around that. Mistakes are made and left on view. The rawness of the material is just as active as the paint floating or sinking on/into the surface. I am intrigued by repetition of mark making in all its forms, from the contour line of a figure to the patterns of textiles recreated with paint or the sewing of wool through and around the surface. Colour is the focus point of my work, understanding how these combinations melt together or scream in separation. Creating space and openness in the work lets each object be itself. There is evidence of traces by previous mark-marking, revealing the changes made during the painting process. In this way, I examine how a thought process can be realized in paint and form.

Michael Slusakowicz Luisa, 2022 Oil on Primed Paper Signed verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) About Michael Slusakowicz works predominantly in painting, drawing and video. Specifically, in painting, Michael produces work in sequential series. His work confronts us with a paranormal mystery in each painting. He wishes to capture the intimate moments of time, like the flicker of the candlelit flame. Michael's supernatural figures and esoteric objects almost seem invisible from the choice of an analogous colour palette, but with careful investigation, one can reveal their embodied cognition. The imagery often penetrates a veiled side of contemporary society; it searches for the pure core of humanity with its dark and bright aspects, its needs and desires, and its braveness and fears.   Education   Camberwell College of Arts / UAL   Select Exhibitions/Awards   Royal Society of Portrait Painter Annual Exhibition 2022, Huesos Impíos - The Gallery at Green & Stone 2022, Royal Society of Portrait Painter Annual Exhibition 2021, Summer Exhibition 2021 at Gallery at Green & Stone   Gallery Representation   The Gallery at Green & Stone, London, UK / Materna Y Herencia Galería de Arte, Madrid, Spain.   Statement about AOAP Submitted Artwork   My latest collection of paintings, enigmatically called in Spanish "HUESOS IMPÍOS" further explores my continuous interest in colour and mood. I believe in the purity of creativity in the moment and I follow it without questioning. Random images come to my mind in the process, that I can only describe as a channelling. Through working in this way I tap into this subconscious dream world both familiar and removed from reality. These spontaneously composed paintings interact with each other through key, tonality, colour and repeated imagery, allowing the viewer to create their own interpretation and interwoven narrative. As a result, there becomes a lot of space for the viewer to insert their own histories and ideas when appreciating these works, leading to a more personal experience.   Message from Art On A Postcard: Please do not bid if you intend to sell on the artwork.

Michael Slusakowicz Michael Slusakowicz Lady Plant, 2022 Oil on Primed Paper Signed verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) About Michael Slusakowicz works predominantly in painting, drawing and video. Specifically, in painting, Michael produces work in sequential series. His work confronts us with a paranormal mystery in each painting. He wishes to capture the intimate moments of time, like the flicker of the candlelit flame. Michael's supernatural figures and esoteric objects almost seem invisible from the choice of an analogous colour palette, but with careful investigation, one can reveal their embodied cognition. The imagery often penetrates a veiled side of contemporary society; it searches for the pure core of humanity with its dark and bright aspects, its needs and desires, and its braveness and fears.   Education   Camberwell College of Arts / UAL   Select Exhibitions/Awards   Royal Society of Portrait Painter Annual Exhibition 2022, Huesos Impíos - The Gallery at Green & Stone 2022, Royal Society of Portrait Painter Annual Exhibition 2021, Summer Exhibition 2021 at Gallery at Green & Stone   Gallery Representation   The Gallery at Green & Stone, London, UK / Materna Y Herencia Galería de Arte, Madrid, Spain.   Statement about AOAP Submitted Artwork   My latest collection of paintings, enigmatically called in Spanish "HUESOS IMPÍOS" further explores my continuous interest in colour and mood. I believe in the purity of creativity in the moment and I follow it without questioning. Random images come to my mind in the process, that I can only describe as a channelling. Through working in this way I tap into this subconscious dream world both familiar and removed from reality. These spontaneously composed paintings interact with each other through key, tonality, colour and repeated imagery, allowing the viewer to create their own interpretation and interwoven narrative. As a result, there becomes a lot of space for the viewer to insert their own histories and ideas when appreciating these works, leading to a more personal experience.     Message from Art On A Postcard: Please do not bid if you intend to sell on the artwork.

Ela Menescal Meet Cute, 2022 Mixed Media, Collage and Printing on Hahnemühle 310g Paper Signed verso 10 x 15cm (3¾ x 5¾ in.) About   The art of Ela Menescal serves as a playful platform that, in its narrative, seeks to bring together elements that are sometimes contradictory but that are tuned in new senses and directions. Her work plays with the viewer's memories of childhood through metaphors with pop culture icons and images from her own childhood memories, resulting in a unique approach, with a touch of humor and irreverence. Ela Menescal is a Brazilian artist born on February 5, 1987, in Rio de Janeiro. She grew up in a musical and artistic environment; her own school notebooks were notably expressive and fun. Her collage works began at first, as a way of disseminating fashion and style. From these compositions, Ela Menescal's desire to migrate to the field of art with an approach to contemporary issues. Her production expands at an intense, original and invariably creative pace. The artist maintains lightness and poetry in her visual compositions, without leaving aside irony and criticism of current times. Her artworks are mostly inspired by music and movies. She held individual and group exhibitions in Rio de Janeiro. She participated in the SP-Arte fair in 2022 and in ArtRio fair in 2020 and 2022. Her artwork has been selected by the Royal Academy of Arts for the Summer Exhibition 2022.   Education   She went to Law School and practiced Intellectual Property and Fashion Law bridging a gap between Law and Fashion.

Jack Penny Front Room, 2022 Pastels and Paint on Paper Signed verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) About   Penny's work looks to engage with the rawness of the human experience. His disfigured or elongated figures come about through his theme of escapism, which reoccurs in his work through different subject matter such as commuters, last orders and train riders. At first glance, Penny's approach is apparently figurative, but as one lingers and moves through the figures, the landscape, the colours in his work, one begins to identify that what he attempts to capture is a strong sense of rawness and humanities constant struggle of breaking from and finding comfort between the struggles of the mind and the body. Penny's 'Commuters' series is a key example of this in capturing the essence of the last generation and the choices that the next generation are confronted with - a constant search to relinquish anxiety, a simple moment of stillness, of escape, from our daily rituals In his evocative figurative paintings, British artist Jack Penny depicts contemporary urban life from the perspective of a rural-dwelling outsider. Penny's largely improvised and haphazard compositions question the sustainability of modern society, established systems, and the nine-to-five hustle of the blue-collar and white-collar workers as they go about their daily lives. Penny's creative practice is motivated by a search for authenticity. He is driven by capturing a real sense of humanity within his work. Viewing himself as a 21st century documentarian of city life Penny paints uniform and seemingly anonymous figures clustered together, as if they were searching for validation in numbers.

Gavin Turk 4 Eggs, 2022 Photograph on Paper Signed verso 10 x 15cm (3¾ x 5¾ in.) About   Gavin Turk (b 1967) is a British born, international artist. He has pioneered many forms of contemporary British sculpture now taken for granted, including the painted bronze, the waxwork, the recycled art-historical icon and the use of rubbish in art. Turk's installations and sculptures deal with issues of authorship, authenticity and identity. Concerned with the 'myth' of the artist and the 'authorship' of a work, Turk's engagement with this modernist, avant-garde debate stretches back to the ready-mades of Marcel Duchamp. In 1991, the Royal College of Art refused Turk a degree on the basis that his final show, 'Cave', consisted of a whitewashed studio space containing only a blue heritage plaque commemorating his presence 'Gavin Turk worked here 1989-91'. Instantly gaining notoriety through this installation, Turk was spotted by Charles Saatchi and was included in several YBA exhibitions. Turk's work has since been collected and exhibited by many major museums and galleries throughout the world. Prestel published Turk's first major monograph in 2013, showcasing more than two decades of his work and in 2014 Trolley Books published 'This Is Not A Book About Gavin Turk' which playfully explores themes associated with the artist's work via thirty notable contributors. Turk has recently been commissioned to make several public sculptures including L'Âge d'Or (2016), sited on the south corner of the Press Centre building in the Olympic Park and Nail, a 12-meter sculpture at One New Change, next to St Paul's cathedral, London, England.   Education   1989 -1991 Royal College of Art 1986 -1989 Chelsea School of Art   Awards   2010 Honorary Doctorate in Arts, University of East London 2007 Charles Wollaston Award, Royal Academy of Arts 2001 Jack Goldhill Sculpture Prize, Royal Academy of Arts Message from Art On A Postcard: Please do not bid if you intend to sell on the artwork.
