Marc Raphael
Meteor Shower - Vibrant Colorful Original Expressionist Galaxy Action Painting

2022

About the Item

Marc Raphael’s "Meteor Shower" is a captivating display of action painting that explodes with color and kinetic energy. This original 24 x 60-inch acrylic painting combines elements of chaos and control to create a striking, galaxy-like vision that feels both cosmic and grounded, ideal for collectors seeking impactful contemporary abstract wall art. Los Angeles artist Marc Raphael captivates with his abstract expressionist paintings influenced by New York's abstract expressionist movement. After encountering Jackson Pollock’s work for the first time in the 90s, Raphael was enraptured by the scale, energy, color, and abstraction, awakening his creative spirit. Raphael’s painting technique combines the movement of his body, the viscous flow of paint, the force of gravity, and the absorption of paint into the canvas in a mixture of controllable and uncontrollable factors. This original artwork by Raphael measures 24 inches tall by 60 inches wide and was created with acrylic paint on canvas. The sides are painted as a continuation of the front, and the artwork comes ready to hang with no framing necessary. The artist's signature and title adorn the back. This artwork can be installed both vertically and horizontally. Free delivery is available for those in the local Los Angeles area, and affordable worldwide shipping is available for US and international art collectors. A certificate of authenticity from the art gallery is included. Set against a richly textured background of deep violet, cobalt blue, and magenta, "Meteor Shower" is a celebration of movement and saturation. Luminous splatters of neon yellow, tangerine, and electric blue rain down across the surface in sweeping arcs and energetic drips. Each splash evokes a sense of urgency and spontaneity, echoing the celestial drama suggested by the title. Raphael, a former K-12 teacher turned full-time painter, explores the depths of acrylic and latex paints, bringing unconscious thoughts to life through imaginative freedom. His process involves applying intuitive marks on raw canvas, allowing the painting to evolve naturally. With a balance of control and spontaneity, Raphael's creations evoke the spirit of jazz improvisation. Marc Raphael's exceptional abstract expressionist paintings are held in private collections worldwide.

The Upside Down - Large Original Abstract Painting Ready to Hang
By Bruce Rubenstein
Located in Los Angeles, CA
The paintings of Bruce Rubenstein seamlessly marry sophistication with affordability. His original art merges the creative attitudes of the two distinct art hot spots of New York and Los Angeles. Rubenstein's work has a rigid edge and strong composition but maintains organic shapes and soft colors as well. His works have a character that brightens a space. His paintings pull from abstract expressionism and cubism but maintain a contemporary edge that strikes the viewer. His work seems collectively new and timeless at once. This large affordable one-of-a-kind 40 inch square and 2.25 inch deep artwork is a mixed media composition on canvas. It is stretched, wired, and ready to hang. This large abstract painting is signed by the artist on the front and back of the artwork. The sides are painted and it does not require framing. Free local Los Angeles area delivery. Affordable Continental U.S. and worldwide shipping available. Provenance: Artplex Gallery. A certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery is included. While the artist has chosen to keep the price upon request, this captivating piece embodies both sophistication and exceptional value. Bruce Rubenstein specializes in large-scale artworks, using huge canvases to tell his stories. Born and raised in New York, he moved to Los Angeles in 1985. His mixed media artworks defy categorization, blending abstract forms and organic shapes with subtle hints of figures and symbols. Adrien Brody and Mickey Rourke are among Rubenstein’s collectors. Bruce Rubenstein’s artistic influences include artists from Joan Miró and Jean Arp to Gerhard Richter and Pablo Picasso. “He is an artist, and that means someone who cannot restrain the flow of ideas,” says author David Rodgers. “He is someone who they just burst out of, who cannot help but communicate, and who sees no reason to stop. He’s a man not limited by media to communicate the stories that he needs to (and must) tell, through any medium he feels necessary.” His works are represented by Artplex Gallery Los Angeles and have been exhibited and collected worldwide, including exhibitions in Austria and Israel.
