Alexander Johnson Remembered Man 1 (Plantain Worker USA, 1896), 2020 Oil, Charcoal and Matt Varnish on Paper Signed verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) Whatever I am working on, my paintings are always rooted in charcoal drawing. Subsequently these drawings are simplified and abstracted to produce the painted work. I'm interested in history and specifically history captured in the black and white era of photography from say 1860- 1965. I don't know why this monochrome era has always fascinated me so (even as a child) but it does and continues to provide source material for my work. More recently I have taken imagery from Victorian and Edwardian stereoscope cards and carte-de-visites (calling cards) and made paintings from them. Currently, I am working from still-shots of a short piece of film shot in 1929, at the beginning of the Great Depression in the USA, of the 'flagpole skater' who roller-skated non-stop for 51 hours above Holman's Department Store in Monterey California. The scene is included in the John Steinbeck novel Cannery Row and is proving to be a subject that is very fertile for me. Alexander Johnson has had work exhibited at numerous shows, including the Royal Academy of Art 2020 Summer exhibition.

Maria Cyrenius, Südliche Hafenszeneexpressive Darstellung eines mediterranen Hafens, welcher fast gänzlich von den gelben, orangenfarbenen und roten Segeln der Fischerboote dominiert wird, das Gemälde stammt von der Hand einer ungewöhnlichen, innovativen Künstlerin - Maria Cyrenius - die ihr ganzes Leben selbstbewusst der Kunst widmete und stets danach trachtete, malerische Konventionen zugunsten einer tief empfundenen, zeitgemäßen Darstellung zu überwinden, zu Lebzeiten hoch geachtet - im regen Austausch mit Cuno Amiet und Max Pfeiffer Watenpuhl stehend - ist die Künstlerin heute zu Unrecht nahezu vergessen, 1917 bemühte sich Johannes Itten um Anstellung Maria Cyrenius in seiner Wiener Kunstschule und schreibt in einem Brief vom 2.2.1917 an die Künstlerin "... Möchte Ihnen nur schnell mitteilen, dass ich Sie als meine Kollegin betrachte und deshalb für Sie das Unterrichtsgeld auf 50 Kr. monatlich ansetze. Auch für den laufenden Monat. In der Hoffnung, dass Sie meinen Vorschlag annehmen, grüsse ich Sie bestens ...", Itten schreibt in einem weiteren Brief an Cyrenius vom 2.9.1918 anerkennend "... Besonders die Beilage freute mich, da ich daraus ersah dass Sie mit aller Kraft dem tiefen unbekannten nahe kommen wollen, und um das höchste Gut stetig ringen. An der Stetigkeit des Ringens erweist es sich ob die Arbeit aus Liebe oder um des Lohnes willen getan wird; aber um des Lohnes willen arbeiten heisst ein Löhnling sein. In des Löhnlings Werk fliesset nie die Kraft des reinen lebendigen Rythmus. Von der Arbeit aus Liebe getan wünschen wir dass Sie nie ende ...", das noch dem Jugendstil verpflichtete Gemälde zeigt schon erste Anklänge des Expressionismus und zeigt den ungewöhnlichen Fokus der Künstlerin, während konventionelle Künstler sicher die malerische Schönheit des Hafens und seiner Baulichkeiten im Bild thematisiert hätten, schildert Cyrenius, fasziniert von deren Leuchtkraft, eine aus bunten Tüchern gestaltete, dynamische "Landschaft" von Segeln der Fischerboote vor dem Blau des Wassers und lässt die architektonische Silhouette der Hafenstadt in den Hintergrund treten, pastose Malerei mit breitem Pinselduktus und leuchtender Farbigkeit, Öl auf Leinwand, wohl um 1906 während ihrer Italienreise entstanden, rechts unten signiert "M.
