Vieni con me!
Devi affrettarti però -
sette lunghe miglia
io faccio ad ogni passo.
Dietro il bosco ed il colle
aspetta il mio cavallo rosso.
Hermann Hesse | Vieni con me!
Hermann Hesse | Favola d'Amore...
Dalla unione della pittura e la scrittura nasce la "Favola d'amore", un libretto illustrato interamente a colori, in cui la narrazione ed i dipinti del premio Nobel Hermann Hesse (1877-1962) si fondono in un unicum inscindibile per descrivere la vicenda di un giovane pittore, Pictor.
Quest'ultimo, vagando per il Paradiso, incontra un uccello dai mille colori.
A lui Pictor pone la domanda delle domande: "Dov'è dunque la felicità"?, forza inspiegabile e misteriosa.
La "Favola d'Amore" è dedicata a Ruth Wenger, cantante lirica che diventò seconda moglie di Hesse due anni dopo la pubblicazione del manoscritto.

Gilbert Williams, 1950 | Visionary painter
His work explores nature, ancient architecture, the cosmos and spirituality.
He drew inspiration from the ferns and Redwoods of his native California, as well as from his deep love of art history and ancient cultures.
Gilbert Williams was born in Santa Monica, California. When he was five, his family moved to Anaheim, California.
Williams' career as a professional painter began in earnest in Mt. Shasta, California, in late 1970s, when he began selling paintings in local galleries.
Over the years he has been represented in Scottsdale, AZ on Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills, CA and in Palm Beach, FL.
Kimon Loghi | Symbolist / Art Nouveau painter
Being part of the generation of artists who created in the romantic era of Romanian and universal art, Kimon Loghi painted in warm, vivid colors that give the feeling of being authentic and natural.
His works are compositionally balanced and deal with themes related to nature: landscapes and still lifes.
"One thing worth noting in Kimon Loghi's paintings is the fact that the characters are a sporadic presence, the emphasis being on the rendering of nature and atmosphere".
Kimon Loghi (1871-1952) was a Romanian painter of Aromanian origin.
Kimon Laghi was born in 1871 in the Greek city of Serres, at that time under the control of the Ottoman Empire.
Louis Escobedo, 1952 | Colorist painter
"Color is like a person’s signature, if it’s the right color, I have to have it.
And when I find those colors that ‘work’, I feel it immediately, like hearing music so beautiful that I have to stop whatever else I’m doing and listen" - Louis Escobedo.
He began his painting career at age 6 when he won the best of show in his elementary school in Sweetwater Texas.
In 1974, after graduation from college he began his career as an artist honing his talents to become a freelance illustrator in Texas.
In 1979, he finally achieved his goal.
