CONTEMPORARY STYLE

Used to refer to a time rather than an aesthetic, Contemporary art generally describes pieces created after 1970 or being made by living artists anywhere in the world. This immediacy means it encompasses art responding to the present moment through diverse subjects, media and themes. Contemporary painting, sculpture, photography, performance, digital art, video and more frequently includes work that is attempting to reshape current ideas about what art can be, from Felix Gonzalez-Torres’s use of candy to memorialize a lover he lost to AIDS-related complications to Jenny Holzer’s ongoing “Truisms,” a Conceptual series that sees provocative messages printed on billboards, T-shirts, benches and other public places that exist outside of formal exhibitions and the conventional “white cube” of galleries.

Contemporary art has been pushing the boundaries of creative expression for years. Its disruption of the traditional concepts of art are often aiming to engage viewers in complex questions about identity, society and culture. In the latter part of the 20th century, contemporary movements included Land art, in which artists like Robert Smithson and Michael Heizer create large-scale, site-specific sculptures, installations and other works in soil and bodies of water; Sound art, with artists such as Christian Marclay and Susan Philipsz centering art on sonic experiences; and New Media art, in which mass media and digital culture inform the work of artists such as Nam June Paik and Rafaël Rozendaal.

The first decades of the 21st century have seen the growth of Contemporary African art, the revival of figurative painting, the emergence of street art and the rise of NFTs, unique digital artworks that are powered by blockchain technology.

Major Contemporary artists practicing now include Ai Weiwei, Cecily Brown, David Hockney, Yayoi Kusama, Jeff Koons, Takashi Murakami and Kara Walker.

Autograph Letter Signed by Jean-Pierre Guillermet to Nesto Jacometti - 1960s
Located in Roma, IT
This is a Autograph Letter Signed by Jean-Pierre Guillermet to Nesto Jacometti. San José, March 15th, 1960. Three pages, double-sided. In French. Excellent conditions, perfectly readable. This is a long letter of report written from San José, Costa Rica, by the Swiss artist, Jean- Pierre Guillermet, to the Swiss graphic art editor and collector Nesto Jacometti. A letter thatt reveals the "adaptation" of the European artist in Costa Rica, a tropical island that ignores the engraving art.With more upcoming projects in San Paolo, Colombia, Guillermet is preparing for the birth of his frst child in France. Jean-Pierre Guillermet (Porrentruy, Switzerland, 1921- San José 2017) The Swiss artist, best-known as painter, wood-engraver, lithographer, he realized murals and tapestries. His artistic career grew up during the 1950s and was strongly influenced by Abstract Expressionism atmosphere. Lover of travels, he explores Mexico during the Sisties and makes contacts with Japan. Nesto Jacometti (Locarno, 1898- 1973) Nesto Jacometti is still today a fascinating figure of the Locano and International cultural scene of the last century. Collector and editor of graphic art, he was the promoter of two important editorial projects and adventures: the Guilde Internationale de la Gravure and L’Oeuvre Gravée. Born in Locarno at the end of the 19th century, at the age of 30 he left Ticino to move to Paris and immerse himself in the bohemian atmosphere of Montparnasse. The war forces him to return to Switzerland, to Geneva, where he works in the journalistic field and he knows figures as Albert Skira and Pierre Cailler. With the latter one a collaboration born and resulted, in 1949, in a printing guild: an edition of etchings and lithographs destined for a wide circulation of the Paris School. During all his life, Jacometti collaborates and involves artists such as Rufino Tamayo and Jean Lurçat, Antoni Clavé, Zao Wou-Ki, Alfred Manessier, Gustave Singier and Zoran Music...
