About the Item

A wonderful graphic painting done by the group of six collaborative artists who organized this group in 1990. They worked with quite a few graffiti artists including Ron English. A brief description of the group is from one of the founders website Ray Arcadio, please be sure to visit his website as well; Artdux Artfux was an art group based out of Jersey City, New Jersey. Their birthdate established as October 31, 1990. Zeitgeist (or Spirit of the Age), burned bright and strong in the six-chambered heart of the ARTFUX. The ARTFUX founders and team of artists were Ray Arcadio, Orlando Cuevas, Jorge Rodriguez-Gerada, Mirta C. Del Valle, Tony DiRobertis and John Santerineross. They were the pioneers of Culture Jamming, the practice of parodying ads and hijacking billboards to drastically alter their messages. They also pushed the boundaries of collaborative art making, where artworks were created by two or more of the members, sometimes the entire group. They developed street and gallery performances that received international coverage. The most famous being "The Trial of Senator Jesse Helms" performed on the steps of Capitol Hill. Artfux also created numerous posters that received international acclaim for their design and message. They also appeared on the Jerry Springer show and were featured on a PBS documenary. Their most famous motto was "Art Pushes, Art Provokes, Artfux!".

Albert Chubac, Composition, Mixed-media on paper, Stamped, circa 1960, France.
By Albert Chubac
Located in Nice, Cote d Azur
Albert Chubac, Composition, Mixed-media on paper, Stamped, circa 1960, France. Measures: Height 1 m, width 70 cm, depth 1 cm. Albert Chubac was born in Geneva in 1920. After studying decorative art, then at the Beaux-Arts in Geneva, he obtained grants to travel to Italy, Algeria, Spain, Egypt and Greece, stages which will mark his work. He settled in 1964 on the Côte d ‘Azur in Aspremont in a very Spartan house, attracted by the light, the sun and the colors of nature. The year 1967 is the year of the establishment of the School of Nice. He will work and exhibit alongside Aman, César, Tinguely, Gilli, Ben, Rayse, etc ... In 1990, it was the consecration with the opening of MAMAC in Nice. Albert Chubac then becomes accessible to the general public. He will use solid primary colors, will develop modifiable structures and then develop the collages in three dimensions. Gradually, he broke away from his classical training and figuration to move towards abstraction through the encounters and influences of contemporary artists. Always in search of simplicity, He will radically limit the plastic means with a reduced palette, geometric shapes and simple gestures to concentrate on minimum conditions of possibility. His work, which lies between constructivism and geometric abstraction, is playful and imbued with the artist's joie de vivre. In 2004, following the major retrospective at the Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Nice, he donated around one hundred works to the City of Nice. Albert Chubac died in 2008 in Tourrette-Levens, near Aspremont.
