A G O P S Untitled 125 2010,Black granite 119 x 119 x 25 cm #privatecollection Armen Agop’s sculptures blend the ancient and the contemporary, using black granite and basalt as his primary mediums. These dense stones, deeply rooted in Egypt’s rich cultural heritage, resist breaking apart, embodying a strong inner gravity. Agop revives traditional sculpting techniques, applying centuries-old skills in his pursuit of pure form. His work has been called "Contrasting Art"—a dialogue between the timeless strength of heritage and the fluid sensuality of modern shapes, creating a unique cross-cultural artistic presence. #ArmenAgop #SculptureArt #GraniteSculpture #ContemporaryArt #AncientMeetsModern #ArtCollector #ArtCurator #FineArt #ArtGallery #ArtLovers #ArtCollection #SculptureOfTheDay #ArtisticExpression #ModernSculpture #AbstractArt #ArtCommunity

P O G O Habit patterns & Untitled Own technique, oil on raw canvas 125 x 160 cm. Richelds Fine Art presents a body of work by Wysocka Pogo / Contact the gallery for full catalogue and details. Magdalena Wysocka (b. 1987, Poland) and Claudio Pogo (b. 1978, Germany) form a Berlin-based artist duo. With backgrounds in printmaking and photography, their practice spans a range of interconnected mediums, from large-scale printed canvases to meticulously crafted photobooks. Central to their approach is the collection and re-contextualization of found imagery—materials drawn from vintage photographs, books, and archives. These sources are stripped of their original contexts and transformed, creating new visual narratives that challenge the boundaries between past and present. This body of work focuses on the more abstract pieces from the artists' 2024 collection, which draws upon the aesthetic traditions of minimalism and the meditative qualities of repetition. Wysocka and Pogo’s revisitation of themes through Risography reflects a disciplined restraint while celebrating the richness of variation that arises from repeated forms and processes. This cyclical exploration aligns with the minimalist emphasis on subtle changes and the beauty found in the everyday—a nod to the Zen-inspired simplicity often associated with Japanese art forms. #richeldisfineart #emerging #artists #supporting #technique #wysockapogo #form #collecting #collector #repeat #repetition #abstract #berlin #polish #japanese #1960s #rispgraphy

H A S S I N G E R Maren Hassinger, On Dangerous Ground (artist in studio), April 1981 “I wanted my work to be an overarching statement about the nature of our lives now.” Maren Hassinger Trained as a dancer, Hassinger shifted her focus to sculpture and visual art while in college. After finishing her degree, Hassinger returned to her hometown of Los Angeles, where she experimented with sculpture, performance, and installation alongside other L.A. artists. #dance #installation #la #artists #portriats #ground #hassinger #collecting #sculpture #performance #install #news

S C H W A R T Z B E R G Howard Schwartzberg Small Section Painting (light pink) Burlap, Paint, Hydrocal, Foam, Glue 5 x 8.5 x 6.5 in “I have always questioned the traditional parameters of what a painting is, how it is made, what it can do, and where it can go. Using the materials within the customary aspects associated with traditional painting, a wood support, the canvas and paint, I switched-out the roles these materials play. Through a comprehensive reimagining of these elements I have repurposed these materials. This investigation has led me to push my personal perception of the relationship between painting and sculpture, especially the shared qualities, and it is my hope to succeed in leading the viewer to question their own expectations.” On view at Barcelona Gallery / DM the gallery for full artist catalogue and details #howardschwartsberg #newyork #boundaries #painting #form #deconstruct #collecting #visual #artist #art #barcelona #richeldisfineart

R O S S Vanishing Markers Acrylic, pencil on canvas, 70″x 60″ DM gallery for further information on artist Marc Ross “…Marc Ross’s work reaches a new level of accomplishment in the area of formalist art. The finished product, wonderfully rich in color and surface, is a tedious process arriving at a product that is a unique visual experience.” - Dr. Louis Zona, Executive Director and Chief Curator, The Butler Museum of American Art #collecting #collector #abstract #minimal #works #kellywearstler #colourfield #2024 #americanartists “Surfaces are built up using a variety of acrylic media, including iridescent and interference colors, applied in translucent, to almost transparent layers. I often draw on the canvasses between paint applications using pastels, pencils and color pencils to affect the overall image and to shift color values. An electric sander is used to smooth out any build-up of texture and to bring forward colors and patterns obscured in previous layers. Each application of paint is lapped over the side of the canvas leaving a memory map for those who are willing to look around the ragged edges. In this way, I’m emphasizing that the surface is an illusion of nothing more than built up layers of paint.”

H E L L G R E N The work of Fanny Hellgren (b.1992, Gothenburg, Sweden) deals with ideas of time, change, and ephemerality in relation to natural and constructed landscapes. She works in series of abstractions and has over the years oscillated between painting, drawing, sculpture, and installation. Using materials such as sand, stone, water, resin, concrete, pigment, graphite, and paper, the properties and agency of the materials guides her process based practice. In Hellgren’s work, natural science and mysticism merges and reflects on the connection between the micro and the macro, the cycles of nature, and the meaning-seeking nature of humans. Hellgren’s new series of sculptures out of sand, resin, and pigments are islands of desert land - alienated from each other. They reflect on in the human impulse to search for meaning, and how the sensation of purpose is dependent on the feeling of connection to the world around us, other humans, and nature. The sculptures are physical objects in the room but at the same time they appear distant - they act as windows towards space or places beyond the room. People react differently when thinking of the endless universe. Some people feel a comfort and fascination, whereas others think it’s terrifying to reflect on their own smallness. In the same way, these sculptures may appear as desert, cold, and lonely places, or as a calm refuge from which we can get a perspective and distance from a chaotic world.

T E A G U E Artworks seen from Teague’s exhibition ‘Line Languages’ in Spring 2022 / We are delighted to unveil a major solo exhibition of Teague’s latest work, opening November 2024. This latest body of work was developed between the rugged landscapes of the Isle of Eigg, Scotland, and a focused residency in Torino, Italy. These pieces explore the tension between chance and control, where spontaneous marks meet the artist’s intentional gestures—a dialogue between the accidental and the deliberate. Featured alongside will be works by emerging artist Fanny Hellgren (b.1992, Gothenburg) who deals with ideas of time, change, and ephemerality in relation to natural and constructed landscapes. Her sculptures crafted from sand, resin, and pigments evoke isolated desert islands, reflecting on the human search for meaning and our connection to nature and one another.

J O S E P H S O H N Must see @museedartmodernedeparis The Musée d’Art Moderne de Paris presents the first retrospective dedicated to Hans Josephsohn in France. Curated by Albert Oehlen, the exhibition encourages an open exploration of the late sculptor’s work. Oehlen questions Hans Josephsohn's creative process – a dialogue with matter, the experience of gesture, the fragment and the endless search – to deliver a dynamic artistic experience of his sculpture.

K A N E K O Untitled, 2020 Glazed raku ceramic 37 × 30 1/4 × 15 1/2 in 94 × 76.8 × 39.4 cm Jun Kaneko makes glazed ceramics that resemble inflated, three-dimensional canvases. Often as tall as 13 feet, these objects are meant to spark interaction with both their immediate space and their architectural environments. “Whether I’m making a large or small object, in the end I hope it will make sense to have that particular scale and form together and that it will give off enough visual energy to shake the air around it,” he has said. Kaneko uses colored slips and masking tape to create motifs and patterns on his works after the firing process is over. #collecting #sculpture #projects #consultancy #exhibits #raku #ceramic #kaneko #largescale #canvas #abstract

Rooted in the tradition of calligraphy and at the same time overcoming it, the paintings set abstract signs which elude the norms of convention in order to follow their own rules’ #abstract #painter #paint #canvas#Nakajimas #gestural #marking#calligraphy #earth#nature #lines #japanart

C A L V E R “Held Square’ 260 x 205cm Stitched mixed cotton Contact gallery for full catalogue of Lawrence Calver. ‘Lawrence allows himself to construct a more visceral language. Concentrating on a kind of simplicity where craft and concept are still symbiotic, rather than juxtaposed or more often than not, absent as counterparts. Primarily known for his textile works, Lawrence’s work incorporates a variety of fabrics, from cotton silk and linen to suede and wool. Working within the idiom of modernist painting, he takes the material support – the canvas or the plane – and sews, bleaches, stretches or stains the fabric to create works that aims to unify abstraction and representation. Lawrence sees opportunities in the material before he creates the work. Each piece has an independent identity and in a parental role, Lawrence simply assists in that realisation. Lawrence is at his best working within a limited range of colour; preferring instead to exploit surface, texture and tonality’ #heldsquare #emergingartist #textile #emerging #stitch #sew #textileartists #2024 #collecting #fabrics #britishartists #emergingartists #british #richeldisfineart #monoho #leeufan #japanese #raw #material #form #richeldisfineart #composition #interior #design #collecting #stitch #work #materials #monoha #weave #minimal #minimalism #minimalist

G U A R D I N O Recent artworks in private collections by Brazilian artist Graziela Guardino. Contact gallery for full catalogue of works. Graziela Guardino is a Brazilian-born, Sydney-based artist whose work blends contemporary art with ancestral textile traditions. Her practice explores the dualities of life, inspired by poetry and nature. Graziela deconstructs and reconstructs linen to create woven paintings and sculptures, transforming traditional craft into minimalist, abstract forms. Her process embraces the heritage of feminine crafts while pushing the boundaries of textile and painting, turning weaving into a structural, architectural element that reimagines our connection to nature and ancestry. #GrazielaGuardino #ContemporaryArt #TextileArt #WovenArt #MinimalistArt #AbstractSculpture #BrazilianArtist #ArtAndCraft #ModernArt #FemaleArtists #NatureInspired #EmergingArtist #ArtCollector #ArtCollection #InvestInArt #ArtCurator #NewArt #ArtAdvisory #ContemporaryCollector #EmergingTalent #ArtWorld
