The Artist's Apartment Mid-Century Fauvist Interior Scene Original Oil on Canvas

1968

About the Item

The Artist's Apartment Mid-Century Fauvist Interior Scene Original Oil on Canvas Vibrant interior scene by Santa Cruz California artist Frances Rinaldo (American, b. 1943). A brightly colored room is filled with a chair, heater, bed, and a cat laying on a rug. There are drawings in red and orange taped to the purple wall. This piece is clearly influenced by Andy Warhol and other pop art, given the hard-edge style, color tension, and realist subject matter. "by Frances Rinaldo c. 1968 from the estate of the artist" is written on verso. Canvas size: 48"H x 48"W Frances Rinaldo (American, b. 1943) was born in Syracuse, New York. She grew up in Baldwinsville, a suburb of Syracuse, and attended a boarding school in Maine. Rinaldo studied fine art at Syracuse University, where she met her future husband, Joseph. They both moved to Vancouver, Canada as conscientious objectors to the Vietnam War. They returned to the US in the 1970s and lived in California. Rinaldo went on to earn several degrees - BA in Film from Cal State Long Beach, Master's in Film from University of Southern California, and MFT from Cal State Dominguez Hills. She had a private practice as a psychotherapist in Los Angeles and then Santa Cruz.
