Yiannis Moralis (Greek, 1916-2009)La Romance daté '2001' et signé en grec (en bas à droite); signé, situé, daté 'Yiannis Moralis/Athènes/Grèce/2001' (au revers)huile sur toile180 x 180cm (70 7/8 x 70 7/8in).Peint en 2001.dated and signed in Greek (lower right); signed, located and dated (on the reverse)oil on canvasFootnotes:ProvenanceZoumboulakis Galleries, Athens. Private collection, Zurich.ExpositionsAthens, Zoumboulakis Gallery, Moralis, March 1-30, 2002, no. 11 (illustrated in the exhibition catalogue).LittératureY. Bolis, Yannis Moralis, K. Adam editions, Athens 2005, p. 115 (illustrated).Y. Bolis, Yannis Moralis, Contemporary Greek Painters, Ta Nea editions, Athens 2007, p. 95 (illustrated).From the 1970s to the 21st century, Moralis had consistently adhered to the principles of geometric abstraction, exploring its mystical pathways and taking his place among its leading exponents.1 As noted by D. Papastamos, former Director of the National Gallery in Athens, 'this, more advanced stage of his geometric abstraction is distinguished by dynamic rhythm and expressive movement. It seems to me that these are the artist's happy moments, depicted in a beautiful environment of luminous colour and irresistibly erotic humanity.'2Highlighted by the poetry and eroticism of the curved line, La Romance recapitulates the artist's long preoccupation not only with the suggestively rendered human form, but also with the musical resonance generated by the combination of varied types, shapes and colours. The stark juxtaposition of the fair-skinned female figure with the dark male form in the foreground—which ingeniously alludes to Attic black-figure vase painting—charges the composition with a vibrant rhythm and endows it with a classical sense of structure and balance. As Nobel laureate O. Elytis once said of Moralis's work, 'the body of a young girl emerges with the dampness of the sea, like a magnified fragment of an ancient Greek vase or a miniature fresco from a bygone place of worship.'3 By sacrificing all descriptive detail, rejecting the illusion of space, avoiding tonal gradations and emphasising only the essential structural elements, Moralis expresses what is permanent and universal. The tone is set by gently flowing curvilinear themes underscored by an austere compositional grid of verticals and horizontals and complemented by the expressive sensibility of his palette. The engaging forms of his figures seem to have a light of their own, the same eternal light of Byzantine art which does not come from a specific source but emanates from within.4 1 K.

Alecos Fassianos (Greek, 1935-2022)Nicola e il fantasma/ Les passants/ Le spectacle signé 'A.

As noted by French writer J. Lacarriere, 'like in ancient pottery, Fassianos's modern figures are captured in an eternal contre-jour which renders them both precise and timeless. These figures inhabit a land which might well be Greece, a totally luminous and airy land, an Aeolian land. The wind which tosses the hair of Fassianos's figures is the same wind which pervades Homer's epics and fills Odysseus's sails on his way to meet the Sirens.'1 Likewise, Jean-Marie Drot, former Director of the French Academy in Rome notes: 'Fassianos sets out to transform the most elemental aspects of everyday life, the most familiar figures into divinities, retracing, in reverse, the ancient tradition that allowed the great Olympian gods to assume the guise of mortals and mingle with them, talk to them and even seduce them without scaring them.'2 Magnificent in its simple grandeur and utterly characteristic in style and sentiment, this top quality work encompasses the defining elements of Fassianos's unique expressive language, unfolding the qualities that established him as a master of contemporary figurative painting.1 J. Lacarriere, 'A Shadow Play' in Fassianos - Mythologies of Everyday Life, exh. cat., National Gallery - A.

Andy Warhol (American, 1928-1987)Alexander the Great (F&S. II.291) Sérigraphie en couleurs, 1982, sur carton du Lenox Museum, signée et numérotée « 13/25 » au crayon, imprimée par Rupert Jasen Smith, avec son cachet aveugle, publiée par Alexander Iolas, New York100.3 x 100.3cm (39 1/2 x 39 1/2in).Screenprint in colours, 1982, on Lenox Museum Board, signed and numbered '13/25' in pencil, printed by Rupert Jasen Smith, with his blindstamp, published by Alexander Iolas, New YorkFootnotes:ProvenanceAcquired from Alexander Iolas.Private Collection, Athens.LittératureFrayda Feldman and Jörg Schellmann, Andy Warhol Prints, A Catalogue Raisonné, 1962-1987, Fourth Edition, Milan, 2003, no. II.291Published by Alexander Iolas in cooperation with the Hellenic Heritage Foundation to coincide with 'The Search for Alexander' exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, October 27, 1982 - January 3, 1983.Throbbing with restless energy fuelled by a spectacle of dazzling colours, Warhol's Alexander the Great captures the radiance, glamour and regal grace of the Macedonian conqueror. The purple ground echoes Van Gogh's luminous backdrops, while the sinuous linear highlights, which trace their origin to the ancient Greek vase painting, reconstruct the young king's face in an expressionist manner akin to Rouault or even the Gothic and Byzantine portraits Warhol himself used to admire. The independence of colour from the confines of the contour energises the entire image, recalling the bold experimentations of such surrealists as Miro and Masson, who dismantled and reassembled the constituent parts of figurative painting. The portrait of the undefeated commander is finally recomposed as an amazing cubist collage which ingeniously oscillates between reality and illusion, underlining Alexander's enduring image as both a historic personality and legendary figure.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: ARAR Goods subject to Artists Resale Right Additional Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
