Water, one of the elements that make up everything in this world. The symbolism of water has a universal trace of purity and fertility, it is the source of life since the ancient cultures and considered an aspect of wisdom that takes the form in which it is held.

Red Orange Diversity
Sculptural Dot Painting
Located in Rye, NY
Women, and their empowerment, are a constantly recurring element in the works of Patrizia Casagranda, whether as a movie star, princess, mythological figure, rubbish collector from India or a member of a particular faith. "I think women are great," the Krefeld, Germany artist and mother of three daughters states. The juxtaposition of these portraits create a tension that is both evocative and aesthetic.
Patrizia travelled to India, where she met the rubbish girls from the Indian snake caste, the Kabelia, who gave her their rubbish finds, which she in turn used, literally, as the basis of her works. The idea of her art was born, the recycled materials "from the street", such as truck tarpaulins, pieces of jute, fabric, paper or cardboard, are overlaid with "15 to 20, sometimes more" layers of painting, consisting of a mortar-gypsum mixture enriched with pigments.
Patrizia also wants the viewer to contemplate what the word type fragments are on her paintings; these can be a poem or even Charlie Chaplin's speech from the film The Great Dictator...

La vigna di una foglia

Acquired directly from the artist.
“The heart is an eye,” writes Nobel laureate Octavio Paz in an essay on Matta’s paintings. Matta creates a world coloured both by a sunny faith in the future and by visions of impending doom.
Roberto Sebastian Echaurren Antonio Matta, who died aged 91 on 23 November 2002, was born in Santiago, Chile, on 11 November 1911 into a family with Spanish, French and Basque roots, and raised in an atmosphere of religiosity. By the age of 21 he had graduated and begun work as an architect, but his leisure time he devoted to sketching and painting. In 1933 he travelled to Europe for the first time, visiting Greece, Yugoslavia, Italy and other countries, and subsequently taking the initiative to collaborate with the architect, Le Corbusier. As time passed, however, Matta’s enthusiasm for a career in architecture waned, and he began to devote himself full-time to art, making early acquaintances with surrealists such as Max Ernst, Salvador Dalí, André Breton and others.
Between 1939 and 1948 Matta, like many of his artistic contemporaries, lived in self-imposed exile in the USA, but, after almost 10 years’ absence from Europe, he returned to make first Rome and then, a few years later, Paris his home. Throughout most of the rest of his life Matta commuted between his studio in Paris and his creative refuge in the monastery outside Rome. And it is here, in Italy, that he produced his greatest paintings.
Matta’s first retrospective in Sweden was organised in 1956 when his works were exhibited in what was then Galerie Colibri – run by, among others, the artist C O Hultén at number 36 Södra Förstadsgatan in Malmö, Sweden. This was also the time when Matta began to collaborate with poets and other artists in Sweden. He produced the illustrations for Lasse Söderberg’s first anthology of poems, Akrobaterna (“The Acrobats”), published in 1955, and was also responsible for the cover of the Swedish art and literary magazine Salamander.
In 1959 the first museum exhibition of Matta’s work in Europe was arranged at the Museum of Modern Art (Moderna Museet) in Stockholm. Held under the aegis of Pontus Hultén, it was entitled “Fifteen Forms of Doubt” and included 15 or so gigantic paintings...
