About the Item
Memories of Ecstasy is an oil on canvas painting, 24.75 x 18.5" canvas size, signed on the front ‘KOSTABI 2022’ lower right, and signed, titled and dated verso. Framed in a contemporary black frame.
Born in Los Angeles and raised in Whittier, California by Estonian-immigrant parents, Mark Kostabi grew up in what he described as a "typical American home, complete with sectional couch.” His artistic influences are varied, though he has noted di Chirico, Hopper, and Leger as inspirations. Also, there is a conceptual affinity in his approach to his work reminiscent of Warhol’s Factory. The driving force behind Kostabi’s art is contemporary life and the belief that the expression of ideas takes precedence over the expression of beauty. Through his work, Kostabi strives to objectify ideas and images and in doing so, connects to “everyman,” the ubiquitous symbol found in most of his art. As a result, Kostabi’s paintings, in their smooth realism and attention to structure and form, exemplify the beauty of simplicity and the wonder of thought.

Early Morning St. AM 1987 (Impressionist Figurative City Scene by William Clutz)

Early Morning St. AM 1987 (Impressionist Figurative City Scene by William Clutz)
Impressionist Painting of A Man Crossing a Street in Manhattan in the Early Morning Sunlight Colorful
Painted by William Clutz in 1987
50" X 40" x 2", oil on canvas
This figurative oil on canvas was painted in 1987 by William Clutz as part of a series of works called "Crossings". These paintings were a study of NYC dwellers engaging in the simple, daily activity of crossing the street. Clutz discovers the extraordinary in the ordinary, simply by studying how the sunlight bounces and reflects off the human form.
In New York in the early 50's and 60's,, abstract expressionism was the orthodox approach to art at the time. However, Clutz was committed to his personal style that focused on abstracted human figures within urban tableaux. Working in a context of artists who challenged abstract expressionism's popularity in New York, Clutz established himself as a significant proponent of abstract figuration. His paintings focus on human figures within the urban environment, often exposing the transfiguration of his subjects as they travel through the complex light of city streets or summer parks, as shown in two of his early works.
Clutz's interest in working from direct observation of urban life was influenced by a long-standing interest in German Expressionism, as well as artists like Henri Matisse, Arshile Gorky, and Nicholas De Stael...
