Between 1922 and 1923, he attended the drawing course at the Giovanni da Udine School of Arts and Crafts. Later, he enrolled at the Venice Academy of Fine Arts alongside artists like Candido Grassi and the Basaldella brothers (Dino, Mirko, and Afro).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHis fascination with the medieval world led him to change his name to Angilotto Ermagora in the mid-1920s, believing himself to be the heir of a fourteenth-century noble family. During 1927 and 1928, he exhibited paintings with distinctive graphic precision and unique compositional cuts in Bologna and at the Opera Bevilacqua La Masa.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn October 1928, along with the Basaldella brothers, Grassi, Alessandro Filipponi, and Fred Pittino, he founded the Friulian avant-garde school in Udine, passionately claiming its paternity despite polemical disputes with other members.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn early 1929, Modotto traveled to Florence with the Basaldellas and Filipponis to continue his studies. However, by April of the same year, he was in Milan attending courses at the Brera Academy, forming relationships with prominent artists like Aligi Sassu, Bruno Munari, Renato Birolli, Gino Ghiringhelli, and more. He obtained his diploma by the end of that year.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBetween early 1930 and mid-1932, he sought to immerse himself in the latest European artistic trends. In Paris, he lived with his sister Elsa, where he came into contact with prominent Italians such as Massimo Campigli, Giorgio De Chirico, Filippo De Pisis, Alberto Savinio, and Mario Tozzi.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eParticularly notable is his friendship with Gino Severini, whose artistic research significantly influenced Modotto. His style underwent a transformation in Paris, featuring characters with angular anatomies, earthy color palettes, and wavy, fragmented brushwork. Paintings like \"Submerged Towers\" and \"Two Figures and Towers\" remain iconic representations of this dreamy and primordial period.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDuring this time, he exhibited in various international locations, including Constantinople and Moscow in 1932, and San Francisco in 1933. Back in Italy, he participated in multiple editions of the Venice Biennale and the Rome Quadrennial.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn 1933, Modotto relocated to Rome and exhibited as part of the collective \"Friulian avant-garde school\" at the Sabatello gallery the following year. He continued to maintain ties with his hometown, spending summer holidays in Udine where he delved into furniture decoration and goldsmithing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs the 1930s transitioned into the 1940s, his earlier design rigidity gave way to a vibrant colorism reminiscent of Venice. Modotto's artistic journey also witnessed international exploration; from 1947 to 1950, he lived in Buenos Aires, Argentina, where he engaged with the local artistic community. Upon his return to Italy via Rome, he continued to foster relationships with prominent artists and collectors.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn 1953, he settled back in Rome and later resided at Villa Strohl Fern. His final years of artistic output featured paintings depicting turreted cities, castles, arches, walls, and buttresses, evoking medieval atmospheres reminiscent of Arnold Böcklin and Giorgio De Chirico. Additionally, his work often included nude, faceless figures, rendered with fields of color bordered by a thick dark stroke.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the spring of 1968, Modotto, who had been seriously ill, returned to Udine as a guest of his sister Teresa.

In March 1918 he was enlisted and sent to the front, while he completed his military service only in 1921 in Rome. Between 1922 and 1923 he attended the drawing course of the Giovanni da Udine School of Arts and Crafts. Two years later he enrolled at the Venice Academy of Fine Arts which he attended together with Candido Grassi and the three Basaldella brothers ( Dino , Mirko and Afro). From the middle of the decade he became passionate about the medieval world to the point that, believing himself to be the heir of a fourteenth-century noble family, he changed his name to Angilotto Ermagora . In 1927 and 1928 he exhibited in Bologna and at the Opera Bevilacqua La Masa paintings with clear graphic definition and unusual compositional cuts. Together with the Basaldellas, Grassi, Alessandro Filipponi and Fred Pittino in October 1928 he founded in Udinethe Friulian an avant-garde school of which, in polemical dispute with the other exponents, he would later always claim paternity. At the beginning of 1929, together with the Basaldellas and Filipponis, Modotto. was in Florence to complete his studies, but already in the month of April, in the company of Grassi, he was found in Milan enrolled in the courses of the Brera Academy. Here he formed relationships with Aligi Sassu, Bruno Munari, Renato Birolli, Gino Ghiringhelli and at the end of the year he finally obtained his diploma. From early 1930 to mid 1932 he was seeking to catch up on the latest European trends. In the French capital he lived with his sister Elsa and came into contact with the Italians (Massimo Campigli, Giorgio De Chirico, Filippo De Pisis, Alberto Savinio and Mario Tozzi,) active there. With Gino Severini, in particular, he struck up a sincere friendship and the research of the artist from Cortona played an essential role in his stylistic maturation. In Paris, in fact, Modotto's painting evolved significantly: naked characters with squared anatomies appear; the color range adopts earthy tones; the brushstroke becomes wavy and fragmented. Submerged towers, Two figures and towers, composition, all from the very early years of the decade, remain among the cornerstones of the period and exemplify the dreamy and primordial atmosphere that dominates many of the artist's works. In this period, moreover, the exhibition occasions increased by measure: in 1932 he exhibited in Constantinople and in Moscow, in 1933 in San Francisco. In Italy, however, he participated in various editions of the Venice Biennale and the Rome Quadrennial. In 1933 Modotto. moved to Rome and the following year he exhibited in the collective “Friulian avant-garde school” at the Sabatello gallery. In 1939 M. was in Turin and Genoa. The contacts with his hometown, however, never failed. In Udine he spent his summer holidays every year devoting himself not only to painting, but also to furniture decoration and goldsmithing in Leo Zoratti's workshop. At the turn of the 1930s and 1940s, the design rigidity of the previous seasons gradually eased in favor of an intense colorism reminiscent of Venice.In March 1941 M. was called up in Udine but, being discharged, he was immediately able to return to Rome. From 1947 to 1950 he emigrated to Argentina, Buenos Aires, where he immediately came into contact with the most lively artistic environment. Returning to Italy via Rome, he went to Udine and then again to the capital where he strengthened contacts with the painters Mario Mafai and Giovanni Omiccioli and the collector Riccardo Gualino. At the end of the year he settled near Rome, in the village of Sutri, in an eighteenth-century villa with a large park and made available by the notary Tito Staderini. In 1953 he returned to Rome and three years later took up residence at Villa Strohl Fern. Especially the last years of activity date paintings with turreted cities, castles, arches, walls and buttresses that evoke nostalgically medieval atmospheres and refer to the paintings of Arnold Böcklin and Giorgio De Chirico. There are also the naked and faceless figures, which recur throughout M.'s research, now rendered with fields of color bordered by a thick dark stroke. In the spring1968 the artist, seriously ill, returned to Udine guest of his sister Teresa, in whose house he died on April 25th.","brand":"ART100","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48002371748113,"sku":"CH684\/8033","price":2000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0854\/4383\/8225\/files\/06341610-966a-11ed-8f2a-db89ffe82f84-ttdF1w1.sm.jpg?v=1727689321"},{"product_id":"paul-wilhelm-standing-nude","title":"Paul Wilhelm, \"Standing Nude\"","description":"Experience the captivating beauty of Paul Wilhelm's \"Standing Nude,\" a mesmerizing oil painting that celebrates the human form.

Starting to draw at a young age, and becoming a pupil of Carlos Reis, she did not follow any academic training.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eArtistic career\u003cbr\u003eLima Cruz started illustrating professionally in 1921 at the age of 12 for the magazine Ilustração Portuguesa. She first exhibited her art in 1921 in an exhibition with her mother who contributed only two paintings. She would go on to have around 40 individual exhibitions in Portugal and France, spending some time in Paris in 1934 under a government scholarship. While in Paris she achieved success with costumes designed for Corina Freire, the Portuguese actress and singer, who wore them in a show performed with Maurice Chevalier.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn 1928, she debuted as a stage and costume designer for what was known in Portugal as a \"magazine\" show (Vaudeville). Her initial, cosmopolitan, colourful and elegant style, adapted well to such shows. Her costumes became famous and for the rest of the 1920s and the 1930s she continued to make an important contribution to the design of shows, including ballet and opera. In 1931 she also started to exhibit objects in glass. In January 1932, she opened the Salão dos Artistas Criadores (Salon of Creative Artists), together with the sculptors Maria José Dias da Câmara and Ana de Gonta Colaço, which aimed to display only stylistically original works. Leading on from stage designs she started to do murals, including for the Casino Estoril in 1935 and for the Portuguese World Exhibition held in 1940 in Belém near Lisbon. The latter, although intended to glorify the Portuguese Estado Novo regime, actually gave an opportunity to a large number of artists, including ten women, who had artistic ideas opposed to those of the regime.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMuch of the work of Lima Cruz is in private collections.

He graduated from the Oil Painting Department of Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts in 1999 with a bachelor's degree. In 2003, he graduated from the Oil Painting Department of Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts with a master's degree. He is currently a lecturer at the Fifth Studio.\u003cbr\u003eHe is currently the deputy dean of the School of Painting and the director of the Oil Painting Department of Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor an artist with a profound academic background, on the one hand, he must maintain the advantages of his academic education, and on the other hand, he must maintain an attitude of independent thinking—both within the system of the academy and on the other hand. It is necessary to dissociate from the academy, and this contradiction is often expressed or implied in the works. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis kind of contradiction just constitutes the roundabout quality of the artwork, and at the same time, it truly reflects the artist's living and spiritual state at a certain stage. The research on the artist's case can find the path between the artist and the work through the background, so that the interpretation can be closer to the starting point of the artist's creation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLiu Ke’s early works prove that the reference system of his artistic practice is established in the background of the academy. As a top student at the Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts, his technical practice and understanding of materials are the result of the operation of the academy’s teaching system— It fully embodies the aesthetic characteristics of the oil painting medium and its personality and special aesthetic feeling as an irreplaceable medium. Liu Ke's early works paid great attention to production and the relationship between materials. Even if it is an abstract picture, if we do a reverse \"reasoning\" from the picture, we can see him from the gradually presented picture image.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e For every step, we strive to be rigorous and restrained, and still pursue a kind of coordination and properly reflect a kind of academic accomplishment in the color relationship. The idea of ​​abstraction is to strengthen the cultural characteristics and spiritual symbols of the material itself, and directly reflect the narrative ability of the material. For the ability of materials, Liu Ke has a clear awareness. He finds the intermediate state of this ability and uses it sparingly. From this point of view, we can also see Liu Ke's inner balance when coordinating conflicts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLines are the main image in Liu Ke's works. Lines of various thicknesses are interspersed with each other, and the contrast of shape, length, and thickness forms a strong sense of rhythm and time and space. The layers of continuous coverage and renewal of the screen reveal Liu Ke's psychological changes during \"dialogue and negotiation\"—the perseverance and tenacity of negation of negation. Lines form a kind of emotional \"fluid\" in Liu Ke's paintings, a kind of self-adaptive and easy-going attitude towards life. The prominent image of lines can easily connect people with the aesthetic definition of lines in traditional Chinese ink art—the visualization of “qiyun”, but in Liu Ke’s art, this aesthetic definition is just a kind of “fiction”—this It is a line without any identity and cultural background—a pure line vision. Many reasons for Liu Ke's \"attachment\" to lines come from his preference for American artist Keith Haring. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHarlem's lines are a kind of \"commercialized\" lines, smooth, fashionable and crafted, and the highly generalized image processing is just the ideological projection of a highly industrialized society, a hard-edged silhouette. The emergence of Harlem just proves the fact that American society is highly developed commercial civilization and post-industrial society is highly rationalized, and it is also an inevitable manifestation of the transformation of social aesthetics. Even though he was attracted and inspired by Haring, Liu Ke did not simply appropriate Haring's expression methods and schema concepts, but subtly transformed Haring's model through the technical training of the academy, using a more flexible, \"Lines\" with warmth to complete a personal narrative.","brand":"ART100","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48002379743505,"sku":"CH1971\/403","price":10000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0854\/4383\/8225\/files\/18b9d110-5dc7-11ee-93c9-9bde02be43e6-uR889Be.sm.jpg?v=1742295467"},{"product_id":"haifeng-zhou-acacia-under-the-moonlight","title":"Haifeng Zhou, Acacia under the moonlight","description":"Step into the enchanting world of Haifeng Zhou's masterpiece titled \"Acacia on a Moonlit Night.\" This nocturnal scene portrays a solitary figure seated under a majestic tree, bathed in the ethereal glow of the moonlight.
