Fresh from her summer residency in Georgia, Abby Goldstein is back in New York City with a beautiful body of new work! Influenced by maps and the rhythms and patterns of nature, Goldstein's work has taken on a natural color palette with references to biology and flora intertwined with her characteristically lyrical line. In the words of Paul Klee "a line is a dot that went for a walk" and Abby's works are a mass of wandering dots spreading across the paper, intertwining and overlapping each other to create an abstract web of line and color. Perhaps in an effort to contain her roaming line, Abby often marks out a pencil drawn border within the page. This imposed perimeter however seems no match for her line and it's boundaries are often breached by the wandering dots. The edge of the page is more definite and not so forgiving and an interesting tension is created between the surface of the paper and the markings of Goldstein. The masses of lines have no option in this case but to bounce around the interior of the page, twisting back from the edge to reconnect with the central mass as if encased by the 2 dimensional format. We are thrilled to add a selection of Abby's summer portfolio to TWFineArt's New Art in Print. Visit Abby's PAGE to see the new selection of work in limited edition print. Small prints start at $85.00 and we ship world wide.

The Codex Coner is one of the most beautiful surviving architectural manuals from the Renaissance. Created around 1510, the illustrated manual was complied in Rome and documents historical and contemporary Roman architecture by the likes of Bramante (1444--1514), Raphael (1483--1520), and Michelangelo (1475--1564). The scope of it's contents and information are unmatched and can be attributed to draftsman & Florentine carpenter: Bernardo della Volpaia (c.1475--1521). The manual was discovered by Michael Goldberg during his time in Italy and influenced a major body of his work from the late 1970's until the mid-late 1980's. 'Codex Coner Piede Vicentino' by Michael Goldberg 1980 [pictured below left] references the fundamental structures of Roman architecture, the divisional lines appearing as abstracted columns supporting the uneven weight of the pink colorfield. The technique Goldberg used to create these works on handmade paper was particularly fresh. Matt medium was applied to the paper with water to create a wet surface that Goldberg would draw into with lecturers chalk - a material that the artist would find an affinity with and subsequently use in paintings for the remainder of his career. Renowned collectors Herb and Dorothy Vogel found particular interest in this work and acquired several drawings for their collection. 'Codex Coner Piede Vicentino' was donated to  Yale University as a part of the Vogel's 50 x 50 - 50 Works for 50 States, after Dorothy's passing in 2012. We are thrilled to work with the Goldberg Estate to include 2 of these amazing and historically important works in our limited edition print collection. Visit our SHOP to see the available work, or enquire with the gallery about sales of the original works.

Together with this months feature exhibition [The Animitas by Veronica Ibanez Romagnoli] we are releasing a new series of photography by the artist in limited edition print. [caption id="attachment_10132" align="alignleft" width="290"] Animata's # 27, 2009. Photo Print by Veronica Ibanez Romagnoli[/caption] These gorgeous photographs remind us of the enormity of the landscape and our place within it. Focusing on the Animita, Ibanez captures the resting places of the dead. Not dissimilar to the sarcophagi of the Egyptians, the Animitas are homes for the souls of the departed. The Animitas are constructed from basic materials and are often adorned with offerings like flowers and gifts for the spirit. Each dwelling is prepared and maintained by the family and friends of the deceased. Set against the remarkable backdrop of the Chilean landscape, they are aesthetic marvels that defy scale. The humble, miniature dwellings are scattered throughout the landscape, sometimes in the most unusual places - as if all alone in the world. Visit Veronica Ibanez Romagnoli's page in our SHOP to view her complete print portfolio. [caption id="attachment_10138" align="aligncenter" width="800"] Animata's # 30, 2009.

We have just added a new series of art in print by TWFineArt's Julika Lackner. This series is a gorgeous abstract representation of the American landscape in locations like Yellowstone National Park. Like the impressionists, Lackner captures moments of light and color. What she sees around her is depicted in layers of horizontal bands that reference the horizons of landscape. Like layers of sediment, the bands pile on top of each other to create complex abstract visions of the environments around her. Visit Juilka's PORTFOLIO to view the full collection.
