Modern Still-life Paintings
MODERN STYLE
The first decades of the 20th century were a period of artistic upheaval, with modern art movements including Cubism, Surrealism, Futurism and Dadaism questioning centuries of traditional views of what art should be. Using abstraction, experimental forms and interdisciplinary techniques, painters, sculptors, photographers, printmakers and performance artists all pushed the boundaries of creative expression.
Major exhibitions, like the 1913 Armory Show in New York City — also known as the “International Exhibition of Modern Art,” in which works like the radically angular Nude Descending a Staircase by Marcel Duchamp caused a sensation — challenged the perspective of viewers and critics and heralded the arrival of modern art in the United States. But the movement’s revolutionary spirit took shape in the 19th century.
The Industrial Revolution, which ushered in new technology and cultural conditions across the world, transformed art from something mostly commissioned by the wealthy or the church to work that responded to personal experiences. The Impressionist style emerged in 1860s France with artists like Claude Monet, Paul Cézanne and Edgar Degas quickly painting works that captured moments of light and urban life. Around the same time in England, the Pre-Raphaelites, like Edward Burne-Jones and Dante Gabriel Rossetti, borrowed from late medieval and early Renaissance art to imbue their art with symbolism and modern ideas of beauty.
Emerging from this disruption of the artistic status quo, modern art went further in rejecting conventions and embracing innovation. The bold legacy of leading modern artists Georges Braque, Pablo Picasso, Frida Kahlo, Salvador Dalí, Henri Matisse, Joan Miró, Marc Chagall, Piet Mondrian and many others continues to inform visual culture today.

"Ambiance a la Lampe Galle"
by Bernard Fouchet (French 1932-2013)
signed lower corner, titled verso
in original frame with the artists monogram as part of the moulding
canvas: 15 x 18 inches
framed: 24 x 27 inches
provenance: private collection, France
Absolutely beautiful original painting by Bernard Fouchet (French 1932-2013). The work is signed to the front and back and titled verso too. Very rarely, it looks like the frame was custom made for or by the artist - as the monogram of BF is part of the moulding.
The painting radiates colour and vibrancy, with this eclectic mix of still life objects on a table, set against this red/ orange backdrop of colours. Beautiful.
Condition report:
the painting is in very good condition. The frame has a couple of 'nibbles' to the corners but is fine.

Upon entering Jill Opelka's home, her creative essence is unmistakable. Adorned with New Yorker Magazine covers, her dining room exudes a vibrant charm, complemented by quirky giant tortoises in the living room.
The space is a reflection of Opelka's lively personality, evident in her central studio nestled within the bright breakfast nook. Embraced by natural light and captivating outdoor vistas, it's where her artistry thrives, even evident in intricate details like a practical denim quilt on her sofa, crafted from old jeans – a testament to her work and creativity.
Descending to her lower-level gallery, her larger original pieces, each with personal anecdotes, take center stage. From a nostalgic converse painting symbolizing childhood choices to a rescued roadside goat immortalized on canvas, her stories are as captivating as her art.
