Anna Bocek 1973

Anna Bocek, born 1973. Study at Academy of Fine Arts in Gdansk, Poland, Faculty of Painting Set Design. Diploma in 1999. Undoubtedly, such mainspring of art for me is theatre - the most important source of inspiration and spiritual experiences both, as a viewer and an artist. Both aspects are equally important for me anyway.

Josephine Wall, 1947 | Fantasy painter

From childhood Josephine has had a passion for light and colour, fantasy and visual storytelling. The life of a painter was clearly her destiny! Enchanting and detailed images flow freely from her imagination in an endless cascade of ideas.
Her first employment after leaving Art College was at Poole Pottery, where she painted the dynamic and boldly coloured designs of the now famous Delphis ware - very collectable and realising high prices at specialist auctions. In addition to her main love of painting, she directs her creative energies into pottery figures, sculpture and reproduction stained glass panels.
She has even customised items of clothing.

Juan Gris | Cubist painter

Juan Gris, original name José Victoriano González (1887-1927), Spanish painter whose lucidly composed still lifes are major works of the style called Synthetic Cubism.

Gris studied engineering at the Madrid School of Arts and Manufactures from 1902-1904, but he soon began making drawings for newspapers in the sensuously curvilinear Art Nouveau style.

He moved to Paris in 1906 and settled at the Bateau-Lavoir, an artists’ dwelling where his compatriot Pablo Picasso lived. Gris was thus in touch with the evolution of Cubism, a style initiated by Picasso and Georges Braque around 1907.

The origins of greek sculpture have been ascribed the wooden cult statues that were described by Pausanias as xoana. No such statue survives, and the descriptions of them are vague despite the fact that some were objects of veneration for hundreds of years.

Max Gasparini, 1970 | Portrait painter

Il pittore Italiano Max Gasparini è nato a Rovato. Dalla pittura classica e realistica di oggetti, i paesaggi e ritratti, realizzati con tecnica minuziosa, l'autore è arrivato a liberare il gesto "quasi" per caso. E' stata una folgorazione.

I quadri hanno cominciato a prendere forma senza volontà nè studio, eliminando l'iter d'ideazione, progettazione, bozzetto. L'opera nasce da sè, prende forma solo parzialmente controllabile.
