Sara Modiano Art

1951-2010

Sara Modiano was a Colombian artist. Her professional artistic career was made up of many styles of art that developed over the years. She is most known for her Performance Art and Photographic series with elements of geometric shapes that overlap her self-portraits. Modiano’s art surrounds ideas on human identity, intense emotion, introspection, sexuality, and the feminine body. In 2006, she was diagnosed with ovarian cancer and died in 2010. The four years in between her death, however, were focused on a new medium, performance art. Modiano died at 59, but her three children keep her artwork alive through the Fundación Sara Modiano para las Artes (Sara Modiano Foundation for the Arts), each year issuing the Sara Modiano Grant, which is given based on financial need and artistic ability. Modiano’s work has been displayed in places such as the Hammer Museum, Brooklyn Museum, Caribbean Regional Artists Salon and Museum of Latin American Art.

By Christian Stoll
Located in San Francisco, CA
large scale conceptual environmental still life photographs playing with viewer's perspective creating individual letters from found objects spelling the word HOPE H-O-P-E by Christian Stoll Incredible details in this body of work: focusing in on this epic photograph work, you will find yourself lost in the artwork's details. Reminiscent of the appropriation artwork of Vik Muniz, Christian Stoll arranges everyday objects to spell letters of the alphabet. Only at close inspection does the viewer realize he/she is looking at an actual photograph, created in camera rather than with digital manipulation. _________________________ Artwork can be installed vertically, horizontally, square or across multiple walls 4 individual photographs individual artwork size 24 x 24 inches (61 x 61cm) horizontal artwork composition 24 x 96 inches (61 x 244cm) vertical artwork...

Redwoods (6 glass panels) - large format abstract nature forest panorama
By Erik Pawassar
Located in San Francisco, CA
a large scale photograph of lush emerald green nature oasis, a highly detailed observation of the soothing natural beauty of the California redwood forest Redwoods (hexaptych) by Erik Pawassar 48 x 132 inches (122 x 335cm) six panels of 48 x 22 inches / each "frameless" acrylic glass face mount edition of 7 signed archival quality fine art pigment print limited art edition published by Edition EKTAlux artist signed + numbered certificate of authenticity __ "Modern Gallery Frameless", a contemporary alternative to classic framing: photo print is mounted onto aluminum composite for archival support and stability, then sealed behind a protective layer of high quality acrylic glass with polished edges all around. A recessed aluminum back frame adds additional stability, allows instant hanging and provides a floating artwork appearance. _______________________ Erik Pawassar's work focuses on the beauty of the disregarded or mundane object. The subjects for his striking and captivating visuals are typically set in the most ordinary environments, drawing the viewer into a charged but serene experience based on composition, palette and formal lines. Saturated in color, the nominal subjects gather a haunting and mesmerizing quality, creating a poignant pretext for the making of a formal color photograph. Decisively capturing the traces left by humanity, Pawassar's images are filled with a sense of universal nostalgia and pay homage to the passage of time and the extinguished moment, referencing documentary and street photographers like Henri Cartier-Bresson, Sebastian Salgado...
