Jean Da Milano, Composition, Oil on Paper, 1974, France
Located in Nice, Cote d
Azur
Jean Da Milano (1928-2017), Abstract composition,
Oil on paper,
Signed lower left,
N°859-74, n° 492,
1974, France.
Measures : Height 65,5 cm, Width 50 cm.
Jean Da Milano is an abstract painter from Nice who was cradled by the rich breeding ground of the School of Nice and its artists.
Active from the 1960s to the 2008s, his works were forgotten and rediscovered by the HARTER Gallery, which today highlights his touch.
According to Agnès Roux, Honorary Secretary for Culture, “Jean Da Milano is one of those modest painters who knew how to develop abstract painting alongside his contemporaries. In an infinite world, the kinetic object on an astral background gradually transforms into a pictorial relief, where the painting falsely becomes painting and invisibly paper. The humility of its formats does not give the work the fullness it deserves. But the almighty gaze of the spectator engenders the feelings and sensations of a cosmogonic painting steeped in universality ".
We indeed observe in his work an evolution which begins with an almost cosmic painting in the 70s, then what we could qualify as “implosions” in the 80s and finally, a real research on paper and pictorial relief. in the 2000s.
According to Georges Braque "Everyone is a creator, the viewer is himself a creator, it is the way of seeing that gives life to the object. "

Polena raffigurante una figura femminile Indie Orientali fine del XIX secolo
Located in Milan, IT
Polena raffigurante una figura femminile con i capelli sciolti e una cintura che le stringe la vita; è stata scolpita in legno di tiglio, nome scientifico Tilia, un legno molto usato nei lavori di intaglio, cosa che farebbe pensare a una nave costruita in un cantiere delle Indie Orientali attorno alla fine del XIX secolo, fatto frequente in molte navi della Royal Navy, benché la presente scultura per le fattezze appartiene certamente a una nave mercantile.
Le sue dimensioni sono 163 cm di altezza – inches 64.20, 48 cm – inches 18.8 di larghezza massima misurata all’altezza delle spalle e cm 30 – inches 11.8, di profondità.
Sotto lo strato di vernice di colore verde chiaro, più recente, ci sono tracce di una colorazione bruno-marrone, probabilmente una pittura usata per la conservazione del legno. La scultura è stata eseguita a mano con uso di sgorbia. La mancanza di braccia è tipica delle polene...
