TALLE BAMAZI (1966-) “In God We Trust” Original Oil on Linen
This original oil on linen painting by African-born, Columbus-based artist Talle Bamazi (1966-) depicts a lone male figure perched above a grouping of people, his arms outstretched to the sky as a lower composition details field workers and subjugated figures. A revered master in the Columbus art scene, Bamazi often blends traditional African imagery with the philosophy of contemporary art, leading him to foster relationships with other, prominent African-American artists such as Aminah Brenda Lynn Robinson and April Sunami. This original painting is mounted on its original stretcher bars and is signed, titled, and dated to 2009 en verso by the artist.
About the Artist:
Talle Bamazi (1966-) was born into the Kabiye ethnic group in northern Togo and began his artistic career as an apprentice to his uncle, a traditional Togolese artist. Although he studied architecture in Lomé, Bamazi returned to painting and developed his own distinctive style, bridging traditional African art with that of the contemporary art movements of the present day. After moving to the United States, Bamazi studied at the Art Students League of New York and earned a MFA at the New York Academy of Art before moving to Columbus, Ohio. From 2004 until 2011, Bamazi operated a gallery called KIACA (Kabiye Impact Contemporary African Art), which was the only black-owned gallery in Columbus' noted arts' district, the Short North, and one of the few black-owned galleries in the city. KIACA served as an influential talent incubator for many Columbus-area African and African-American artists, including psycheñwelic painter April Sunami and Aminah Brenda Lynn Robinson. Bamazi also served as the lead artist-in-residence at the King Arts Complex, where his monumental series of life-sized portraits of Columbus-area black artists was featured at the Columbus Museum of Art and now hangs in the historic Pythian theater. Bamazi continues to live and work in Columbus and has had his work featured in Art in America, Monarch Magazine, C-BUS Magazine, Valentine New York Art Magazine, and Diva Magazine, among many others.

Vintage CURTIS JERÉ Abstract Floral Wall Sculpture
$495.00
Fabricated from brass, this early sculpture by Curtis Jeré depicts a cacophony of abstracted floral designs that resemble waving cattails or perhaps some foreign marsh plant. Wall mounted, this sculpture’s patinated brass construction provides a beautifully industrial contrast to the stylized organic subject matter this piece of art presents. Perfect for the beginning or seasoned art collector, this sizable sculpture is signed and dated to 1968 by the artists.
About the Artist:
C. Jeré is a compound nom de plume of Jerry Fels and Curtis Freiler, two brother-in-laws. They were metalworking artists who focused on home accessories and wall sculptures. The works of C. Jeré were produced and marketed by Artisan House, an art production for the average consumer that was founded by the duo in 1963. Freiler was the chief of production and Fels was the chief of design. They employed a great number of minorities and handicapped people and at one point employed 300 people. They sold the company in 1972. Early C. Jeré works were produced in California, but continue to be made overseas since the company’s outsourcing in 2003. Freiler passed away in 2008, Fels in 2013 at 103 years old.

JOHAN BARTHOLD JONGKIND (1819-1891) Original Oil Nightscape on Panel
SOLD
Own a piece of art history with this original oil on panel painting by the illustrious Dutch master and frontrunner of Impressionism, Johan Barthold Jongkind (1819-1891). This painting on panel features a moonlit maritime scene that Jongkind is best known for. This painting is considered “nocturnally perfect” with radiating moonlight in a cloudy sky being perfectly reflected in the shimmering waters underneath. The low horizon, deep contrast in color, and loose yet intentional brushstrokes are quintessential to Jongkind’s style.
In 1874, Jongkind was extended an invitation to participate in the first exhibition of Impressionist works at the Salon in Paris, but declined. Following the rejection of his painting “Moonlight in Rotterdam” at the 1873 Salon, he refused to participate in such exhibitions again. This exact painting was created in 1874, at that pivotal point in the Impressionist movement and in art history as a whole.
This painted panel is framed in an aged gold frame with a paper label on the reverse. Jongkind’s signature and the year 1874 is found in the bottom left corner of the composition.
About the Artist:
Johan Bathold Jongkind (1819-1891) was a Dutch painter and printmaker who is widely recognized as a forefather of Impressionism. After training at the art academy in The Hague, he moved to Monparnasse, Paris. After studying and working for two years, he was accepted into the Paris Salon exhibition. Despite receiving praise from critics Charles Baudelaire and Emile Zola, he experienced little success that induced depression worsened by alcoholism. Jongkind would continue to struggle with his mental health and dependency issues throughout his life. He returned to Holland for 5 years before going back to Paris, renting a studio and developing a style that would be critical to the consequent Impressionist movement. He met Eugène Boudin, Alfred Sisley, and Claude Monet, and became a mentor to the three young artists. Monet attributed the “definitive education” of his artistic eye to Jongkind. Jongkind mostly focused on marine landscapes, consistently employing strong contrasts and lively brushwork. Following in Dutch tradition, most of his works feature a low horizon to emphasize the sky. His legacy is strong in both the art market and in museum collections around the world. Although his contemporaries admired his work and style, his distaste for social gatherings and salons may have been what prevented him from coming to the forefront of the Impressionist movement. However, his background contributions were equally as important to him personally and many other young artists.
